Forever Young Papers #2

Well I have been MIA for the last two days, not really. I spent the weekend with Kim, helping her move and packed up her scrap room. We had a good time but man were we tired by Sunday afternoon. I had bought the WrestleMania for Denver because he did so well on his TAKS test. The school normally had trouble getting him to just finish the test and he would score really low, well this time he scored an 89 on the reading portion of the test. We did the happy dance for two days and I decided to let him have something that he really enjoys. So I get home last night, set up the DVD recorder because if I am going to pay $60 for the pay per view, by gosh, I am getting it on dvd. We pop the popcorn and get the sodas and settle in for 4 hours of wrestling. We get through the first two matches and Denver being sensible, he was wanting to go play on the swings before it got dark outside. I could not believe it, here I had spent this money as a reward and now he didn't want to watch it...his reasoning was since I was recording it he could watch it on his own time. My reasoning was..I paid for this and I was not going to have no one in the house watching it live. Well he ended up falling asleep instead and I stayed up till 10 pm watching something that I had not watched since I was a kid. I could not believe I was stuck watching this when I could have been doing something else but my stubborness made me sit and watch my $60 worth of pay per view. My lesson learned because I could have just bought the DVD in a couple of weeks for about $20 so no more pay per view wrestling in our home. The thing that really got me was this morning he woke up and wanted me to tell him who won the matches..well I told him he would have to watch the recordings because I was not going to give on telling him. Figures......just the way things work out in my house sometimes. Anyway, lets get down to business and those Freebies.

I have the papers done on the kit and considered taking a break from designing to handle things around the house due to all the chaos going on right now but I just can not post one set of papers and walk away so I will finish up the kit and then may take the weekend to catch up on my reading and things I need to do around here.

That's My Boy Quick Pages



As I said, I was going to put together some quick pages/ploppers (which ever you may call them). Please let me know if they work for you because this is my first set of them.

Going nuts this morning....

I can not believe that I am up so early and want to play with digital scraps and can't...I thought about working on the book but I keep hoping that 4 shared will come backup. I think maybe I am supposed to be doing something else this morning but my butt won't leave my seat or this computer. How unfair is it that I work all week and look forward to my cups (way more than one already this morning) of coffee and all the blogs and freebies out there and I get nothing this morning. I have been able to see everybody's new designs but heck no, Missie can't have any of them. Bummer. Well I could start working on Forever Young but I just really wanted to spend this morning seeing what everyone out there was doing. I have been so out of touch with my freebie collection lately because I have been designing away. But NO, can't do anything but window shop. These guys don't realize what kind of stress they are causing right now. Oh...what I was able to download something. Only from Rapidshare though...no 4shared. Thanks Scrap Stew Sue..go see her stuff...if you need your scrak hit.


Oh Lord, Please help me out here...I really would like to play with my fellow scrap friends out in this big ol' world. I promise to be good, Stop laughing at me Kim..not nice. Well guess God wants me to do something else this morning. Off to find out what that is.......

Forever Young Papers #1

Here is the newest kit and let me give some background. Once again, I needed a kit and my oldest came through. Clay had been playing a CD full of Texas Bands and one song really caught my ear. Forever Young by Stoney LaRue had me thinking about how Clay would be graduating in a month and thinking about all we had been through. So I had him pick out the colors and I typed up the lyrics. This is a great song and I will definitely be using it for his graduation party on the slide show. I am pretty much still building the kit and completed several elements and papers tonight but will finish it up tomorrow for our week of downloads. Enjoy and stay Forever Young.

Glad to see the weekend is here and have a Good Evening.
