Busy Friday

Today has been a busy Friday. We woke up early. I went off to the bank and then to order Kenzie's cake since our oven isn't in proper working order as of yet, so I am having Jay C bake and Ice the cake, then I am finishing it off with a cake decorating kit. I know it isn't home made like I have done other years, but I am not in the mood to travel 40 minutes just to bake a small cake. We are having Mom, Pop, Mimi (one of the girls I work with), and Uncle Maxx over for cake and taco salad and then presents. I think Kenzie will enjoy it just as much as a huge party. So, I am taking the small way out this year. We just have too much going on to worry about a big party. Maddie has been such a good girl today. She even sat (on her own accord) on her potty for a few minutes today. First with her pants up and then she stood up and sat on it with them down (while I was sitting on my potty!). How cute is she? She didn't do anything, but I think it is definately a step in the right direction. We are looking at finances to see how soon we can buy the stuff to have Pop do our roof. He wants to have it done really soon, but I have to know financially how much to give him and I have a ballpark of around 2500 total for the job, but that is because he is my step dad and he is giving me a huge deal on it. Will definately know more in a few weeks. I am changing the color from black to brown. I am hoping that we can get this job done real soon. Ryan is himself. Upstairs watching sports on tv right now I would assume. Kenzie and Maddie are at Mom's house since we both have to work tomorrow and I am working on figuring out some financials. Just thought I would drop you guys an update since I will be out of commission for two days. Good luck getting through the weekend without a post! LOL!
Love,
Ryan, Dawn, Kenzie and Maddie Cox

MEMORY FULL....

So,after not falling asleep until well after 2am this morning, I got up at 8, and got the kids ready, packed the van and we were off to Mom's for Maddie's party.... So, I made sure I didn't forget my camera. That was a major thing... so, we get there and the castle jump was already there. The girls went and got in it right away, I started taking pics. After just 5 pictures, a screen says, Memory Full. I had forgotten my memory card. And since I had to go to walmart for mom anyway, I got a disposable camera to do the party with. So, no pics til I get them developed and then I have to scan them to the desktop so I can then download them here... Long process but you will like the pics (i think). Anyway, I am off. TTYL! Dawn

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.
