thursday 2/11

I always have the best of intentions to get everything finished ahead of time. well, as usual it never works out that way and i'm scrambling around at the last minute. the night before their valentine party my boys sit in my craft room and fill out their cards. I had so much to finish that night but i decided to sit back and watch them.

Here i go again.....

thought i would let you all know why I havent been posting. the sickness continued in my house :( I finished with my antibiotics on a sunday by that wednesday i had strep throat AGAIN!!!! that makes 3 times since Jan.1st.... now i'm taking another antibiotic and i'm so afraid to finish it... positive thoughts :) this time it took the dr. until the following wednesday to notify me that my strep test came back positive, ugh!!!!
I do have a few pictures to post but really havent been in the mood... i'm trying to tell myself starting monday I will "start over". last week I received a very sad phone call. A dear friend of mine lost her son tragically :(
My heart is broken for her family and I cant even begin to imagine the pain they all are feeling. So, I have been praying and thinking and praying some more. very sad :(.....
I will keep telling myself this project 365 is something i really really want to do and just maybe that will get me moving again.
I hope all is well with all of you :)

wow!!! it has been a very long 2 weeks......

It seems like we have been in and out of the dr's office and the pharmacy. my husband and I have been sick for what seems like forever but thankfully its on its way out. I have filled so many prescriptions that it would be ok if i didnt walk into target for awhile (jason would be so happy to hear that lol). Now i just have to finish my drops for pink eye and I will be done :) of course, I'm keeping fingers crossed and knocking on wood every chance I get ;).

While my husband was watching the superbowl I was able to work on some valentine crafts. I needed to make mailboxes for Joeys pre-school class and nicholas' teacher a card. I never got around to ordering the sweet treat cups from stampin up so after reading a post on the cricut mb I got an idea. I'm not sure what the lady used as her "sweet treat cup" (I was too tired to click on the post to read the entire thing) but it did give me an idea of what i could use :).
I bought several different candy molds hoping they would work. for the most part I think it turned out ok. Really it doesnt hold a lot of candy but thats ok, its still kinda cute ;)

I guess my brain still isnt working to its fullest :o..... I posted the pictures in the wrong order...

sunday 1/31

wow, i cant believe i haven't posted since wed. of last week. i keep saying life is so busy and crazy right now and i don't have much time for anything but "life". then i think, well, that's ok because if i didn't have a busy crazy life what would my project 365 be about ;)
I've always disliked sundays because that is the end of our weekend and back to routine, rushing and work..... The kids school got 2 new play structures last week so we took them over to play. Nicholas didn't get to play on them at school because the line of kids was ridiculous. We had the entire playground to ourselves so they were able to play as much as they wanted :) I hope everyone is doing well and now i'm off to blog surf and see what i've been missing..

saturday 1/30

nicholas said sunnie looked like a rockstar, i think joey said she looked like a monster,lol. I think she looked adorable :) it doesnt matter how i comb her hair because a few minutes later she always ends up looking like she's been through the dryer.

friday 1/29

what a long week so glad to have friday roll around :).... My husband usually plays with the band both friday and saturday night but he had tonight off. That makes it a little easier around here when i have his help. He got the 2 little kids ready for bed and it wasnt long before we found them asleep on the couch. I guess they must have had a hard long week too :)

thur 1/28

Joey's class had a field trip to see Frank Leto in concert at the national hispanic cultural center. He sings the cutest childrens songs like coconut soap, back seat driver.. if are in need of "new" kids music check him out on myspace :)

the picture is part of the hispanic center and the other is a house.. back when the center was being built they offered the residents so much money to buy their property and well most agreed. as you can see there is one lone house that the owner wasn't gonna give in. She was an elderly lady and refused to sell so she didnt and they built around her. If i'm not mistaken their final offer was a million dollars and she still said no. Well, since then she has passed away and her family took possession of her house and wanted to sell but it was too late. Now there is this little green house right smack dab in the middle of the center :)
