RAK.

I got a new cricut font(storybook) and had to play with it. i just wanted to make an owl and then the next thing i new i was doing a LO, with nothing in mind just the fun of creating, Has that ever happened to you where you just want to creat and it comes with no thought? well i went with the flow and this is the LO. well i dont have any pic's to go with this so thought how fun it might be to gift it to someone. The photo mats are not attcahed so you can ajust them in any possition that suits you, i just laid them on for scanning...... SO all you have to do is leave me a comment here and on Jan.1st i will draw a lucky lady and then send it to you. please check back to my blog on Jan.1st to see if your the lucky one.(on that day i then i will need an addy from the winner)

First lost tooth

my son lost his frist tooth on the morning of thanksgiving how cool is that!! we talked about the tooth fairy comming and takeing his tooth and leaveing him money.. So this morning when he wakes up he checks to see if the tooth fairy had come and sure enough she did and left him a 50 cent piece he wanted me to open it so he could eat it. he thought it was a chocolate coin, i told him it was "Real money" he was disapointed and said he wanted to eat it... i explained that it was real and he could buy something with it, all excited he said can i buy candy money momma? LOL my silly kid.. all he wants is a chocolate coin .. i should have gotten him some .. who would have known.... Hope everyone had a wonderful thanksgiving...

A stoy of inspration

some of you may remember that last year i was working very hard to lose wight i was at my heavest (only last year) 262 pounds i had tried everything for years, for you that like pic's LOL (we all do) here are few pic's of me at about my largest wieght though there werent many pic's, untill i decides to lose it, then i kinda documented. the last one is taken of me last week at my lowest wieght since i was a teen. altogether i have lost 72 pounds in one year and i am under 200 ponds and thrilled to say i am a size 14 in most things, sometime i have to go to a 16 depending on the style. i still have 48 or so more pounds to go to be at my ideal wieght, it still comming off but at a bit of a slower rate. I know with out dought i will reach my goal.. and be a healthier happier person because i already am!!! if you are intrested i would happily share HOW i did it ... not sergery just me and my will power ....
