A new little girl to love!!! Addison Paige Null entered the world on May 29th. She is absolutely gorgeous! I can't wait to be able to hold her....they are hopefully visiting from Minnesota in August!

Favorite Things Right Now!!!

Star Trek - The movie


Nintendo DSi - I traded by beloved DS Lite for this over the weekend and I fell in love with the DSi, the camera is totally fun and downloading games via WiFi is awesome!

Iced Apple Chai Infusion from Starbucks - YUM-O, it tastes like spiced cider (which I love) but is totally refreshing!!!

5 years ago today...

I put on a big white dress and said I DO to my best friend! It has been 5 years full of unbelievable happiest, and the deepest of sorrow. Over the last 3 years we buried my brother-in law, my father-in law, my favorite uncle, my awesome aunt, a close friend, and experienced a financial disaster. Amongst all this the one thing that kept us going was our love for each other. Everyday I am thankful for him. I still tingle all the way to my toes when he looks at me, My heart still stops when I see him. I love you Snuggie!

He's Here!!!!

My best friend had a beautiful baby boy on May 9th. Charlie is the cutest thing ever. His mama absolutely glows right now with motherly love! It is so incredible to watch her and her husband start this new chapter of their life!

OHH how I want YOU...YUDU

I am in love...with the YUDU. I have been contemplating purchasing a GOCCO Screen Printer for my husband and I for a long time! We have a lot of art work that we want to print and had finally decided to take the plunge and then...

YUDU!! I was in my local Michael's and I saw it. I sped home barely able to contain myself with what I had discovered..I knew then that we needed a YUDU!

Major Block!!!!

I have been suffering from a major creative BLOCK!!! I have soo much to do books to create, pages to finish, Embellies to create AND I CANT GET STARTED!!!! I think I need a good kick in the Butt!!!

Are you kidding me???

A women at the Berlin Zoo, thought it would be a good idea to jump into their enclosure during feeding time...

NOTE TO SELF: Jump into the Polar Bear enclosure after feeding time!

Creative Block

I have been trying to layout the same page for 1 week now!!! What is wrong???I am having a major creative block....or maybe it is the giant stack of books I just brought home from the library??????

Myspace 2.0 layouts

I love you Library!!!

So I realized I have an issue when it comes to books! I love to read so does my husband, I think I have spent a small fortune on books over the past few years. A couple of weeks ago we had a garage sale and I decided it was time to get rid of some books....I had 8 boxes. This prompted to make some changes, since things are rough all around financially I have decided that I would by no new books! I would start going to the library. I am obsessed with our branch of the library! You can order books from any of the locations throughout our county and have them shipped to your branch! OMG! Then I realized that I am just a library newbie! There is so much to learn!

I know....I truly am a dork for not figuring this out sooner!

OHH What A Crazy Ride!!!!

Well it has been 6 months since I have taken the time to actually visit you my little BLOG! My has it been crazy! Change is Good...Right??? In the last six months I have realized that it is time for a change a major one! When I am not busy creating for the Etsy shop my real life job is in the ohh so dorky world of Industrial Computers. A world that is filled with very nerdy lingo and even nerdier (is that a word) products. I must admit though I LOVE IT!! I have made my living in this technology heavy environment for almost 18 years now and it the tender age of 38 I have realized that it is time to move on! THAT IS SO CRAZY TO SAY!!!

Anyway more to come BLOG of Mine! In the mean time Scrappin Princess will be open again over at ETSY starting May 1st! Look for photos of all the fun yummy things to come!
