Crops and Such!

OK, I know what you are thinking. It is Valentine's Day, why is she blogging? Today was crazy. And fun. Parker took a very early nap and woke up around noon. We all got ready and went out for lunch and a Chinese Restaurant. Ben started feeling sick afterwards. We went furniture shopping and bought furniture that may be too big for our living room. It may look a little weird. I loved it though, so we bought it. It should be showing up within a couple of weeks. That will give me plenty of time to rearrange some things and make it look better.

When we got home Ben surprised me with some beautiful flowers!! So pretty!

Last night I went to a crop that my friend was working at and scraped away. I got 5 layouts done. I was busy, busy though. I am only showing you 4 for now....there is one that needs some finishing touches on it.
Parker and his best bud, Danyo. In the journaling I wrote Danyo's real name, so I tried to cover it up with a piece of paper. I did not want Nobody to get mad at me.

Christmas is finally finished. With the exception of ONE MORE LO. We are celebrating Christmas with Ben's family. He has so many nieces and nephews...Parker loves it when we visit.

I am obsessed with buttons and ribbon and chip board. I need to find other things to put on my pages, but for some reason those are my favorite things to use. Parker and I are playing at a park not too far from our house. It was last fall. It was 70 degrees. This is a special moment for me because it was the first time Parker went down the slide ALONE. Then he climbed up the ladder and went down the BIG, BIG slide all by himself. He is growing so much! I can not wait to get out with him again, this summer.

This is one of two layouts. Christmas Eve 2008, we spent the evening with our favorite friends. We played Rockband. It was so fun. Ben just bought Guitar Hero: World Tour. It is so fun. I am slowly learning how to man the drums. There are so many cool songs on it......including, 'Beat It.' Yes, Parker is all over the living room when we play that song for him. He loves it!! And I must say, it is quite addicting!
