What a week...

I have had lots going on this week. Mainly consisting of work. Not fun. But then I woke up with a cough and not feeling well, but the NyQuil is helping with that. And I actually get to sleep! Yay! Kenzie has been doing well with school. I got a mid term report on her and will post the results later. Maddie continues to blossom. She is getting so big. I can't believe that she is almost 3 already. We are trying to decide the food for Kenzie's birthday party. That is basically the last of what we need to do for it. I am however looking for a pair of pom poms and a basketball for one of the centerpieces I am working on creating. Should be interesting if I can find what I am looking for. Maybe I should post on freecycle to see if anyone has any of the things I need for my centerpieces. Good idea! I am now working part time in the evenings to help Roy with some research, so that helps some too! And that is about all that I have to report.

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.
