The Best Valentines Day EVER!!

I had the BEST valentines day EVER!! John and I left for Red Lodge tuesday afternoon. He showed up at my door holding a dozen pink roses, a big white bear and a box of chocolates, so sweet!! When we got to Red Lodge we checked into the condo John rented for us, and it was huge! More like a small house! We went shopping in all the cute shops around town, went to lunch, and then we exchanged presents. He LOVED his presents, and he gave me a diamond neclace!! Oh, and the best part of all is he told me that he loved me!! It was a very exciting surprise! It was absolutely adorable! We went to dinner awhile after that, then went swimming and hot tubbing! It was a blast, I haven't been swimming in so long! Afterwards we went back to the condo, cuddled up on the couch, and watched a movie. Well, HE watched a movie, I ended up falling asleep right away! The next day we went shopping AGAIN. We ended up at a bead store and John picked out a bunch of cool, funky beads and the lady at the shop made me a bunch of neclaces and bracelets. I ended up getting a LOT of jewelery on valentines day, and I love it ALL! :) I'm never taking this diamond neclace off, it is the sweetest gift anyone has ever given to me. It means soo much because it's from John and I love him so much! Sorry to go on and on about him, I am just a happy girl who is totally in love! I wish it was valentines day every day, if every day would be as wonderful as those two days! :)


I got my tax return today, I ordered a TON of scrapbook supplies online! I got a bunch of American crafts letter stickers, thickers, chipboard letters and patterned paper. I got a TON of KI Memories stuff, Doodlebug buttons, stickers, rubons and paper frills. Heidi Swapp flowers, jewels and stamps, and sooo much more! I'll have to take a pic of all the loot when I get it. I just wish I didn't have to WAIT!! Tomorrow Dani and I are going to the mall to do some MAJOR clothes and shoe shopping, yay! Oh yes, but just so you know I'm responsible, I payed all my bills and paid off both of my credit cards FIRST, before I spent any of the tax return on fun stuff! :)


TGIF!! Tonight I am off to do more scrapping. Wish me luck!! Hopefully I get lots done! :)


Here's some eye candy for ya. First a pic of my Johnny in our condo in Red Lodge. Isn't he adorable?? Then a pic of my roses from John, and a close up pic that John took! Oh- and a new layout of John and I on valentines day!

Insomnia...

Is good sometimes!
Sorry it scanned crooked!





Aww... Aren't they cute?!

These are cute little doggies I got from Target to give to my closest friends for valentines day. They have magnets in their noses so they kiss! These are the ones I'm giving to John, obviously!

Pretty uneventful weekend, but I had fun! Mostly I stayed home, besides going to dinner and a movie with John yesterday. He hasn't felt very well all weekend, so we decided to take it easy. I spent all day with Alex and scrapped today, it was nice! :) I finished John's valentines day card. I want to give it to him RIGHT NOW, but I know I have to wait until tuesday! It's so nice to know that I don't have to work tuesday or wednesday, and I'm so excited about our trip to Red Lodge!!

Here's the card I made for John!

Valentines Presents

A new layout that I made this week! This is a pic of John and I on my birthday. The layout title says it all, he DOES make me SO happy! He is the best boyfriend I have ever had, and I thank God every day that I am with him!

I went shopping for John's valentines day presents yesterday, I bought him so much stuff! I bought 2 Ecko shirts, a
Guiness mirror, and a TON of little things that I wrapped and packed into a big gift bag. It's going to take him forever to open everything. It took ME forever to wrap everything! I bought the new S.E.I. Cupid's Candy shop line to make John's valentines day card yesterday, the card's going to be mainly pink, and I wrapped all his presents in pink too! hehe, I'm so mean! I'm so excited, I can't wait until he opens them, I can't wait to open mine! He went to a jewelery store to get me my present, and I'm dying to know what it is!! We leave for Red Lodge on tuesday so I don't have TOO long to wait! Today's saturday and I'm hoping to have a relaxing/scrapping/cleaning day! I usually go out with people, but I really feel like just staying home with John and Alex.Here's some pretty pics of John's wrapped presents! :)

Snow and that darn pen!

Well, I HAD been planning on posting a blog every night but I haven't been doing a very good job! lol. I have a bunch of stuff to post here, just have to get the time to do it! Thank goodness it's friday, now I have all weekend to do fun things! :) I'm still waiting for my tax return to get here!! I'm sure it will be in my account by next week. Then I'm going to buy everything on my wish list from Rocky Mountain Hobbies and Scrapbooks.com! I am so excited, cannot wait to get the stuff!! I finally got paid yesterday, and I went scrapbook shopping in some of the stores here, but not many of them carry things that I want. I usually just buy embellishments and cardstock around here. I bought a bunch of embellishments that would go perfectly with a lot of the new stuff that I'm ordering online, but unfortunately I don't have that stuff yet! It's just been really hard to scrap lately because I keep thinking about what I can do with all the new stuff I'll be getting next week.

I DID scrap a page yesterday, a pic of John and I on my birthday. I showed it to him and he LOVED it!! I love how he likes my scrapping! :) He says he thinks I'm good at it, and he's hoping I can make it my career someday too! He's so sweet! I was going to scan the page last night, but my darn white American Craft pen won't work properly, so I couldn't finish it! I just bought it and it didn't write well from the start. I'm going to get a new white pen tonight, so expect to see the layout soon!!

I am in love with a lot of the pink and black layouts that Kristen has been creating lately. Especially the ones she has made with the "Caution" boy and girl lines by Creative Imaginations. I'm thinking about ordering them today. Not normally the type of supplies I would scrap with, but I just like them a lot for some reason! I'm still trying to decide if I should buy them or not though.

I have been going ebay crazy! I already won a bunch of auctions, I'll start taking pics of the stuff as they arrive and post them on here!

It snowed all day yesterday and today- I HATE driving on snow!! I hate the cold!! lol. Why do I live in Montana still? I ask myself that question every day!

So Excited!

This is my first blog post and I am sooo excited that I finally have a blog!! I have been so inspired to scrapbook lately, just wish I had more time to create! I haven't been getting much sleep lately because I've been staying up late to scrap... but it's totally worth it! :)

I've been making plans to spice up my scrapping studio area in my house. I have so many ideas!! I know it's going to take awhile to bring everything together, but I'm going to post my progress on here every step of the way! I have been obsessing over all the new winter CHA scrapbook supplies, and especially the new Love, Elsie and KI Memories lines! I'm expecting a LARGE shipment of lots of fun scrapbook goodies next week. I don't think I'm going to get ANY sleep at all! Can't wait to start on all my new projects!

As for things going on in my life right now, it's been going soooo well with my boyfriend John, I'm so excited!! We had a loooong conversation before I went to work today, and I think it brought us even closer together! I have never had a relationship like the one we share, it is so wonderful! He is the nicest, most caring, most understanding, most talented, smartest, and not to mention- cutest guy in the world!! I'm so excited about our plans for valentines day, we are going to spend it together at a resort in Red Lodge, and then we will be celebrating our 6 month anniversary on the 18th! :D
As for my son, he is sick with an ear infection. :( Poor little guy always seems to be sick! He's on antibiotics right now though, and hopefully he'll be better soon!I made this layout of *myself* a couple weeks ago!
