Project Life April 10- 16

This is birthday month and week in my family. My dad turned 64 on Monday, my twin sisters turned 40 on Thursday and my mom had her 60 birthday on Sunday. There are still more family members with bdays but these are my immediate family ones and then we have Easter too. So this week started off with a celebration dinner at the Outback (our fave restaurant) then decorations going up to surprise family while they were away. It's been a good week. My poor daughter was home most of the week recovering from a painful tooth infection and needing a Root Canal done to it. It wasn't fun for either of us. While she was home she got to spend time decorating and playing with Sam when he got home. He loved loved it, said I should leave and Summer could take care of him. We are still having cold temps and rainy days. So here is my project life for this week still caught up, hooray!! I didn't overdue it on pictures and papers this week. Just a nice quiet week. Hope everyone is having a good week and Happy Early Easter to everyone, have a great day and enjoy your loved ones near and far.

Project Life April 3-9

My project life is below, the pictures are first and the writing afterwards. I don't know how I mixed it up this way but can't get it to change to the writing part first. Please take the time to read the stories under it because it shows why this week was so important to me and why I LOVE LOVE PROJECT LIFE!! Thank you for visiting and have a good week.






Project Life April 3 to April 9

It's been a busy, crazy, painful, fun, warm, exciting first week in April for our family. We started the week going to our local Farmpark to see some new spring baby animals. My niece had her first concert at school. My one daughter started getting a toothache which led us to the dentist last week finding out that she'd need a root canal ASAP on the one tooth she chipped 2 years ago in a bike accident. That's where we were all morning, poor thing she did not like going thru this procedure. She was strong and tough though. On Saturday she and her brother got glasses and they look so cute and so different. I can't believe what a change wearing glasses does to them. Summer looks so much more grown up and more gorgeous to me. I love love her pictures and have already ordered a few more copies so I can scrap them. Sam looks even more cuter and like a little professor to me. The big exciting news was taking Renee up to the high school and getting her schedule pack for freshman year in the fall. It will be so exciting for her to take some classes that are fun and interesting and are what she's interested in. Hoping she gets all the classes she signed up for. I put our Sunday pictures from the park in the added page protector so there's something on the back side of it. Also the other page protector has a some papers from this week, one favorite is Renee had to cut out magazine pictures that showed what she liked or was about her. Again, I'm so very very thankful for this album, my favorites were from the eyeglasses place. It made me wish my mom had pictures of when I got mine or how I felt about them, how I picked the pair out etc. I will love looking back at this day and remembering how goofy they all were and how fun and excited it was to get glasses. Renee took all the pictures and even tried some on for fun. LOVE LOVE PROJECT LIFE!!

Project Life March 25 to April 2

This week I went along with Ali's idea and made it a no picture week and just use a lot of "STUFF" to fill in this week. This was fun and I liked the challenge to look for the little things that captured are week. This week did have some cute pictures though so in a couple days I will post those for you to see. So this week is made up with receipts from shopping with my girls and they gave me some tags from their clothes too, food sales from this weeks flyer, big sports action this week with the CAVS CRUSH HEAT oh yeah that was awesome for us, also the Cleveland Indians opening game on mine and my hubby's 16th anniversary, some cute things Sam brought home from school, a kitchen idea from a magazine that I fell in love with, Summer drew a a cute paper for Sam, Red lobster coupon where my hubby and I went for our anniversary, easter tree decoration tags from what I bought at the store to decorate this year with. I did end up having enough stuff after all, was getting a little worried. There is even 4 things that I didn't use for this week. Knowing how easy and fun this ended up being will mean that thru out the year I will do this again. Thanks Ali for the idea to use more stuff. So what did you put in your album this week?

Happy 16th Anniversary Honey, I love you

Today I'm so happy and filled with love and joy!! It's mine and my sweetie's 16th year anniversary. I love love going back over the years on this day and remembering all the good that's happened. Our wedding day was perfect, it had a couple mishaps but in the end it was perfect and I didn't want it to end. My dream is to renew our vows on our 20th anniversary since we didn't do it on the 10th. I would love to stand up there with him again and renew our faith in each other and our lifelong commitment and have our beautiful children standing there with us. We have changed so much in these last years and our family has grown and life is busier and crazy now then it was back then. I love our life now though too and am looking forward to many more happy times together. It will be fun to look back in 16 years and see the changes again.We will be on our own and the kids could have kids and we will be grandparents, ok that's too far. I will just think of today and be happy where we are right now on this chilly, cloudy, trying to snow kind of day. We are going to Red Lobster for lunch which is our tradition now. I'm hungry and can't wait to go and spend the day with my sweetie. Have a great weekend everybody.
