a little birthday celebration

Since today is my birthday and the 2nd is Carol's, I baked a cake yesterday and invited her over to have some. Here was my last minute creation. Cute I think. I don't know if I liked the premade icing though. It was tough to work with because it was so stiff. Anyway, Kenzie put 3 candles in it for me then we re did it for carol so we didn't end up with a ton of wax on the cake.
Such a cutie pie I do think!
This was what Kenzie wore to school for spring pics. That was yesterday. She was so excited to get all prettied up for school!

Roy and Carol gave me a gift card to Kohl's and since my dishes were on sale there this week, I went today and used it so I could get more for my money. While I was there I signed up for the e mail coupon program they offer so I can get more savings in the future. I was able to get a turquoise 5 piece place setting (I have wanted this color for soooooo long) and another serving bowl. I bought 2 when they were buy one get one, but the other day while I had wet hands doing dishes picked one up to dry and it slipped right out of my hands. So, now I have replaced that bowl, I will have to check and see what else I want to get for my collection. Just working on getting it all together is all.

I am looking in consignment shops for a climber for maddie for her birthday. Mom, Carol, and I want to go in on one, so we are keeping our eyes peeled!

And that is the update!

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.
