Scrapbooking

Anyone who really knows me knows that I don't have a creative/artsy bone in my body. Sure I can do the occasional musical number, but that's as far as the right side of my brain can go.

So recently I've been saying that I want to scrapbook (Jaime has like 25 scrapbooks she's done over the years and they are such an inspiration) and now I am really going to start.

I found this cool website, ScrapBuck where everything is like $1 and it's all pretty cool stuff. So I am going to buy an album, some paper, stickers and whatever else I need to get started. I have no idea where to go from there but I have about 500 pictures of Tyler that I'd love to get into an album. I'm thinking of doing a section for each month he's been alive until he's older then I can do a section for each year.

I inherited some cool scrapbooking stamps and ribbons and stuff from my sister so I have the basics, now I just need some direction. If anyone is really serious about starting scrapbooking, let me know and you can come over and we can do it together.

i am the SAME way... i have NEVER been crafty at all, but i decided when i had blake that i needed to 'scrapbook' our family. honestly, once you get started you'll amaze yourself, i bet you have some craftiness hiding in there somewhere! i scrapbook at my moms house (because she has everything) you should come with me sometime, she loves it when people come use her stuff! i need to catch up... i'm WAY behind!

I would love to come over and scrapbook. I kept thinking that as soon as summer was here I would be free to do whatever I wanted anytime I wanted. But it seems that with the older boys home they are taking up so much time...ugh! They want to go here and they want to go there and I am the one who has to take them. I could bring over Chance and he could babysit while we scrapbook. I am sure he would love it.

This post is not coming to you VIA Jennifer. This is her husband, Erik. I decided to hijack her blog (ah...the things you can do when in possession of another's password) and tell her how I feel about her. This will probably not be posted for long, I am sure as soon as she sees it she will remove it. HERE GOES! Jennifer, my dear, I love you oh so very much. On Monday is our 1 year anniversary! A whole year! That may not seem like much, but my oh my it has flown by quickly. Since you are a relative young'un that year actually represents around 4.76% of your entire lifespan(thus far). I still keep my eye out for things that represent 'US'. Who can forget the 'EJ' Truck? I have never stopped looking for, nor noting 28s as they pop up all over the place. I notice all of the little things you do. I notice the little faces you make. I notice the little noises you make. I notice the slight shifting of your posture in response to my incessant joking. This face was made...

Brandt Gibson in a Nutshell

The Amazing Kell Bjorn decided to start keeping track of everything Brandt Gibson said. Here are a select few: “I’m a horse of a different color!” “No Pain…No Pain.” “Nobody corrals me!” “Die!” “But on the other hand, you have different fingers.” “I’m not stressed, I’m not stressed; if you tell me I’m stressed…I’ll kill you.” “I parked around back in the shade, so it doesn’t get 65,000 degrees in my car.” “Yeah, things you don’t want to hear from your bank…‘Oops’.” "You've been tasered!" "Click-click-a-click...booyah!" “Blame it on Kell, it’s all his fault…It was either Kell or Canada and you’re closer.” “Girls just want to have Lu-unch…” “I have been Dudded.” (After receiving some Milk Duds) “Get out of my Chaaiirrr.” (Said with a low raspy evil voice) “Gloria’s here…ruuunnn!” “That is highly possible…just not probable.” “Gift of tongues Kell, enjoy it.” “Revenge is a dish that is best served cold.” “Don't you think? Please use this well. Marriage becomes...

Escrow

Well we found the perfect house for us on Thursday! We put the offer on today and they accepted! We expect to close the third week of March! I knew it was the right one as soon as I walked in the door. The picture below shows half the house, you can't see the whole thing on Google Earth because of the trees. It's been updated really well, but it has a few things we can still do to get more value out of it when we sell it in a few years. It's totally cute on the inside, just under 2000 square feet and has a great yard and deck. It came with some nice perks too, so we're really excited. I'll have a nice big housewarming party so you can all see it in April once we're settled in! Yay! Ok so the sad part is, we won't be in the Dash Point Ward anymore. :( We'll be in the Federal Way ward so we're still in the stake at least. It's really sad because I totally love our ward, it's awesome and I love my calling with the Young Women but at least I w...
