Almost Forgot...


Oh yeah...I saw this really cute gift idea on Stacy Julian's blog (which I check on a daily basis). They are customizeable Kleenex boxes! How fun are these??? You can create one at mykleenextissue.com. Kind of expensive for a box of kleenex, but pretty cheap for a cute gift *wink*!


Lost...

So, I feel a little lost...my camera broke earlier this week. It is so weird because our smaller, handheld digital camera broke almost 2 months ago and I thought, "OK, I will get it fixed eventually. For now, I still have my bigger, nicer digital camera to use." Then, on Monday, the bigger, nicer camera broke. Darn thing won't turn on--must be something with the power switch. So, I called Sony to get a quote on a repair, and it was just as I thought...not worth getting repaired. Ugggg... So needless to say, I will be shopping around and soon since this is absolutely my favorite time of year for pictures. And, after all, what kind of scrapbooker would I be without a digital camera??? Best Buy, here I come!

"Mommy, It's Perfect!"


Those are the best words ever! That's what Taylor told me today when she received her Halloween costume in the mail. She has been saying for a couple months now that she wanted to be Ariel, The Little Mermaid...but not just any costume would do. It had to look exactly like Ariel did in the movie. It HAD to have a green shiny fin on the bottom, and it HAD to have purple seashells to cover her "buoys". So, I thought, "OK, this shouldn't be too hard to find...the Little Mermaid is still really popular right now...surely at least Toys R Us would have it" HAHAHAHAHA!!! It's a good thing I started early!


After 4 auctions on Ebay, and some tears from Taylor, I finally won one of the auctions! Shew! I paid a little more than I wanted, but after I saw her face and heard her say, "Mommy, It's Perfect!" it didn't matter.
