"Along the Way"

Wow have I ever been a bad blogger! Just seems like everything is going in high gear right now and I know it's going to get crazier as the holidays get closer! UGH I am so not ready!!
But that's besides the point! I had to stop in and share information about a fantastic online class being taught by Jenn aka Dancing Princess Designs! It starts Monday November 23rd and it's called "Along the Way: Documenting the Milestones." Here's the description from Jenn and Scrapbook Dimensions Magazine:
"In this class, not only will you create an album, but you'll also learn many design concepts and digital and hybrid techniques along the way. My goal is to create an environment where we can learn from each other, so participation in our class forum is encouraged!.."
Jenn is fabulous and I am sure this class is going to be as well!! So if you want to check it out and sign up, go here: http://scrapbookdimensions.com/main/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=958&Itemid=404

OMGOSH

Omgosh, has it really been that long since I was here last!! Wow. Well, all I can say is October was one whirlwind of a month!! We spent a couple of days in SC watching DS #1 graduating from Basic Training...proud mama :) He then flew off to Texas to finish his training and we headed to the beach to spend a couple of days in the sun...that was nice :) All except the part where I got sick right before we left for the graduation and stayed sick for 2 weeks!! UGH!! I didn't even open photoshop or even get on the computer...all I could do after work was lay on the couch and be miserable LOL. Good news is that no one else caught it and *knock wood* we are all healthy here...unlike so many right now! Soooo I spent the next week or so trying to get caught up on all that I was behind on for the wonderful ladies I CT for....they are awesome :) I am going to try to be more regular with this blog thing....I'm working on a schedule for myself so I don't feel so all over the place all the time!! I don't think I am going to spend a bunch of time today posting all my layouts...I think I will start fresh from here. But I will fill you in on some great stuff that is going on around digi-world!!

First, if you love challenges make sure to head over to Digital Scrap Garden! They have sooo many wonderful challenges and everyone there is so awesome!!

Haha Saturday night and here I am again :) Still pouring rain and I am babysitting my leaking laundry room ceiling. UGH This house. I have lived here for going on 19 years and it seems like one problem after another...get one thing fixed, something else breaks. Ahhhh the joys of home ownership! And DH just doesn't get why I would love to move in to a townhouse or condo where someone would take care of all that maintenance crap for me hahaha. Haven't done much but clean house and catch up on laundry today....and went to my fav little Italian restaurant for supper ....Yum Pasta Carbonara!! :)
So the real reason I am here is to show you a super new kit from Dancing Princess Designs at Go Digital Scrapbooking.... It's called Angels Among Us and it is sooo gorgeous!!
