A is for Awesome. Awesome is the definition of Amanda S. Cox!!!

I was given several cake pans on Christmas day because Amanda no longer has storage room for them and I just put them all in a cabinet when we got home. I just now looked to see what they all were! Here is the list:
Bert and Ernie, Tweety, Donald, Puppy, Scooby, Sitting Rabbit, Mouse, Pink Panther, Carriage cut out to do baby shower cakes with, Buggs Bunny, Minnie, Pluto, Heart, Santa, Snowman, one that you put these inserts in to change the cake around... the inserts are a ribbon, santa, rabbit, umbrella, happy birthday. other pans were witch, small donald, small hart, oscar the grouch, big bird, scull and super hero.. Needless to say, Amanda just made my life a lot easier. I can do so many more cakes now! I am waiting on this stupid stove thing now though. LOL!

Maddie had a really bad night. She hasn't been up and down all night in a very long time! I couldn't believe it. She finally fell asleep at about 5am! and was up again at 8! No sleep for Mommy!

Kenzie has been doing great. She can't wait to get back to school.

Ryan has been busy with work.

I have been busy just being a mom!

And that is that!

Talk to you soon!

Thanks again Amanda! You ROCK! Oh by the way, Carol, I used the skillets for the first time last night and today, I LOVE THEM! Thanks a billion!
Love,
Dawn

The importance of connections

Many times, we don't take the opportunity in life to think about connections. Much like the way legos connect to erect the building or vehicle you are trying to create, without connecting pieces, our lives would fall apart. It's not often that we take time to reflect on those connections in meaningful ways. If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways. Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends. We took the time to find a church that really believes in connecting with their people and not in a way that makes the patrons of the church feel like they are just a player in the game of chess and that player's job is to be

Workout #27

So, here's the challenge. And above, you can see my entry. Kenzie had done crosswords or circle a words (I can't remember) with Gigi and I snapped a pic of her doing it. I absolutely love the design of the sketch we were supposed to use for this lo. It allows for a simple, yet stunning layout. It allows room for journaling as you can see that I added as well as plenty of negative space! And the breakdown goes like this, picture was taken from my collection, background paper was from k and company the best of k and company pad, the circles were literally just picked out of my scrap box. I didn't even look at the papers, i just did a random pick. the lettering was taken from an old sheet of alphas i had and I think they worked out great!!! Simple yet Stunning! Thank you Scrap Fit for the challenge.
