Test Ride
I can't wait ! It is going to be a high of 83 today here in Mn. The first one of the year with temp's. Like this.
Jes has got the bug to get the boat out of the garage. So well today is the day. We are having my parents and grandma up for a ride and dinner. Want to take it out on the lake to ensure all is working well before he hawl it all the way to the lake for Memorial weekend !
Want to make sure no repairs are needed like last year. That way we will have it all ready to go for the holiday weekend. Which actually will be here sooner then we know. It's just around the corner.
So today I will be out on the lake. I will be enjoying the day for sure ! I can't wait to get out on the water. It is my favorite. Ahhhh just to glide across the top of the water and the sun on your face and the wind through your hair ! Its just a great feeling !
Well.. I have much to do today before everyone gets here. So I gotta run.
I hope you are out enjoying the day ! Find something fun to do and enjoy it with someone special !!!

Engagement Scrapbook
I've been taged !!! I will slip the beans !
Hello.. I wanted to greet everyone with this fun bright sun shinny flower !
Hope you all enjoy !
Okay I have been tagged by Kyra. I have to list 7 random fact or habits about me.
Hereeeeeeeeeee I go !
1.) I am thankful.... for what ? Sooo many things. I will just list a few in no order. Just random.
I am thankful for my Family, Friends, My Hubby to be that I found him and he lived sooo close to my best friend. I am thankful for all the material things I own and the joy and fun I have with them. Well the list could go forever... but I still stop here for now.
2.) I am a cleaner - I clean and clean and clean. I like our home to be a clean one. I am always getting after Jes to pick things up.
3.) I am a list maker. I make list's for everything ! You name it. There is a list I have for it.
4.) I am a stamper/now also scrapbooker. I also love crafts and creative things.
5.) I am the oldest in my family. So that puts me in a take charge..put out fire mode. I organized alot of events with my family and work. Everyone depends on me that way.
6.) I love my pet ! I have a 9 month old Kitty and now that he has settled down a bit I love him even more.
7.) I enjoy gardening. Not as much for the work part. But the end result is what I love. I love planting flowers and such.
That's all for me all !
Special thanks to my BF Kyra for all the kind words she said about me in her blog !
Later. Have a wonderful day.

This Adorable Girl !
Sooo Sorry
I am sooo sorry for being miss down and out and miss BLUE the end of last week and well.... the shit will continue this week as well.
Monday morning was not a good one and monday afternoon doesn't seem to be getting better.
Life for me just has not been good. Not that it needs to be perfect. Who's life ever is ???
The weekend.. well parts of it where good ! I got a great deal of scrapbooking done !
I have my whole Engagement scrapbook nearly completed! Keep in mind this was only my second one. But I am feeling GREAT about it. A few pages I am not TOTALLY happy with and others I think I out did myself. I can't wait to show my BF Kyra. I hope she will be impressed with what I was able to accomplish. Sooo I have 3 pages left of my 20 pages album. I can't wait to bring it to work and show the girls as well. They are always sooo kind to me and have such nice things to say about my work !
Another HHHHAAAPPIER note, I got a surprising email from Margie over the weekend.
She is going to be send me yet ANOTHER cd with pictures on it. She said that where not ready in time for the first cd. Okay..scrapbook is almost done. But I am MORE then thrilled to see what she has for me. Yipppy. Another happy moment I can plan on the mail man bringing for me.
Car.. update... my car is still dead. I have to pay..yet again to get the thing towed ( second time in about a month). Good thing is... at least the guy at the shop seems to know what is wrong with it. I can only pray........ that since my paycheck was ALOT less then it should have been.. its not going to break the bank. Although Jes is always willing to charge it for me. I have to give him credit whenever I am in trouble, he is always there will a calm and helping hand. Nice to have and much appreciated. I kid with him and tell him it is marriage practice !!! Hehehehe!
Well the rest of the events from my weekend that where kinda downers I will pass on sharing.
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and a good week.
Have to admit...loving the warm weather ! Actually got some things out side for Spring this weekend as well !
Take care guys.... keep me in your prayers and think good thoughts. I could really use them now.

Bad week getting worse !!
Please say a prayer for me. I beg of you.
This week keeps getting worse the more it goes on.
I have sooo many things going on.. other then just my wedding.
Stress is huge for me right now. I have tonz of it at every turn these last few weeks. I don't know how to fix it all.
My pay check at work is totally messed up. No one can seem to help me. I have spent 2 days on the phone at work with people trying to get it fixed. It still isn't fixed.
Work has been busier then ever, more work then ever and more expectation then ever. Take it and smile. Right ???
My car is dead ! It won't start. I just got it paid off.
This happened once about a month ago. So I will have to have it towed and pay for that, as well as many more re~pairs I fear. Plus I need brakes sooo badly.
Jes has not been working a whole heck of alot ! That doesn't make the pocket book look so good either.
Tonight I found out there are only a few of the bridesmaid dress's left that I wanted for the girls. Not only is it a prom dress. But we can not get any more of them. They are discounting the dress all together.
We will hope that we can order them from other states.
Otherwise I start all over and we don't have a whole lot of time :(
I also found out they want me into for my dress fitting 3 months in advance. Which puts a big push on me. I thought I had a bit of time to shed some pounds. But doesn't look like the case now ! :( Also sadened by that fact.
There are also a few things that are going on and some people I am worried about and their health. I can't give you more info. But please pray that things make a turn for the better for me.
Sign' off tonight.... a bit in the blues ! :(
I had to share with you all.
They did such a great job on the pictures !
Thanks ladies. Its been sooo fun already.. I can't wait for the wedding day !
This is a book that she made us both all in black and white. It ROCKS!!! Love it ! What a great thing to tresure our wedding ! Won't this be fun to look at years from now.
I got emails that everyone wanted to see more pics. So they are below !
I wanted to take the time to thank everyone for their kind, warm words and thoughts and comments and emails. Thanks for making this a even more special time for me. Thanks for sharing in my joy. It means sooo much to me. Even more so this week. As it has been a very bad week for me.

We're Registered !!!!!
This wedding stuff is just sooo fun, I couldnt wait any longer. Today Jes and I went and Registered @Target.
We are also going to register at Menards as well.
It did take us about 2 hours, and lets just say... after some of the fun stuff. Jes was a bit MORE then bord when it came to the cooking and bedding items that we registered for. But all and all he was a good sport and tuffed it out ! There are a few more things I would like to add like some candles and items like that. But we had already been there 2 hours and I just couldn't do it to the guy. So I will add those few last things myself.
We got subway for lunch and enjoyed the day in the warm sunlight as we ate lunch for the first time on the deck today. My face is feeling a little tight. I think I got some sun on my cheeks!
I hope you all had a good weekend. Ours was VERY busy. I didn't get all the items done I had hoped for. But it was a nice weekend over all.
I hope to get our engagement pic's tomorrow. I will post a few shots on here this week. So keep your eyes open for them....... coming to this blog sooon !
See ya!!!!!!!!

Sooo this morning... while my dear Jesse is still getting in some of his ZZZZ's. I have taken some 'ME" time this morning to blog and do dig out some of my wedding scrapbooking items I have bought to check my 'inventory' if you will ! To see what yet I need ! I have some awesome things collected alrighty. I can't wait.
I am so doing an engagement scrapbook as well.
Today I think I should get my cd of engagement pic's from out photo shoot a few weeks ago. I must say... I can not wait. I think it is sooo fun. So are the gals that took our pic's. I can't wait to see the things that they did ! I can't wait to take and get them all printed out and start making save the date cards as well as putting these great captured moments into a book with my own things to add ! It will be sooo fun !
We also have to clean the garage, get pictures printed, save the date cards made, house picked up. We have a belated party/bonfire for my soon to be Sister in Law over at the in-laws house tonight. The list is forever long. I hope I am still standing at the end of the weekend.

A AWESOME pair of Gals
Hi Everyone ~
I wanted to share with you Two really fun Gals.
Melissa and Margie - Melissa and Margie are my Wedding Photographers. We had been emailing them back and forth. Finally on April 1st, a glummy Sunday afternoon we met these gals that not only ,both brightened up the day with their warm personalities but also did with their bright smiles !
( I hope our smiles..... Jesse and mine did as well.... since they where taking our pictures... hehehe)
I got their permission to well.....'BRAG" about them as I called it.
Well as many of you know I am a stamper, I have been for humm about 10 years or so. More recently I have gotten into scrapbooking as well. With only time for one Vegas scrapbook completed soooo far, I am exciting and looking forward to my next!
This one is special to my heart. As it will be a scrapbook of Jes and I, and our engagement !!! Anyhow... there is WAY TOOO Much, I know about the stamping world I have a lot of info in this little brain of mine. But MUCH I DON'T know in the scraping world. Although my best friend Kyra, who is a scrap-a-holic, is very well informed on such things. ( She is also the one who got me into trying scrapbooking and using my talent for that into scrapbook pages as well) Anyhow..... come to find out my new found friends ! Are both the 'Scrap bookers' themselves. As well as having a real eye for taking pictures and capturing those ohhh sooo precious moments.
I am well.... lets just say....waiting for the mail man to deliver my special CD of our engagement pictures done by both of these wonderful woman. I can't wait to see how they turned out and what sort of awesome things they got thru their camera lens. Even more so I can't wait to make my scrapbook and also use the photo shop to make personalized save the date cards with these new pics of us.
Anyhow... if you ever need pictures of any sort done. Please contact these wonderful gals.
I am going to post Melissa's web site to her photography.
As well as Margie... 2 pea's link to some of her work as well. I am told that is does some great work and even has many items and pages in well know magazine's with in the scraping world.... so with out further a due.... here they are. Please check them out and their great work.
(Okay... I will have to post Margie's site in my next post)
Apparently here link is on my work email. Sorry gals!
Watch for more to come on that one !
Once I get my cd I will also be sure to post a few of my pics for you all to see !!!
Have a gooooood night all !
I hope you enjoy these two as much as we do
Happy Birthday Kyra !!!
Today is Kyra's Day 0409!!!!
Happy Birthday Girl... and many more to come !
To my Best Friend and Forever Friends !!
Kye and I met each other in the 8th grade, we fast became friends and really the rest is histroy and we have alot of it! We have both grown and changed soooo much, yet our friendship is long gotten stronger. We have many fun memories of when, well life was a little simpler for both of us. Back in the days when we made fun of Kelly and would exchange notes in the hallways of highschool. We aren't as young anymore..but our friendship has stood the test of time !!!
I hope that you have a WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY.. and a great day. Please enjoy yourself.

Happy Easter !!!!
Friday, April 6, 2007
Good Friday.... isn't sooo good for me today.
I sure wish I had some of these in my yard !
Happy Good Friday to all -
I hope that we all can reflect on what this day means. It maybe be nothing to you and alot to someone else.
I hope this post finds all my friends, family and loved ones doing well.
I have to admit, its not been a good day for me. I woke up this morning with a terrible headache. Which has only gotten worse. It's been a busy day at work, and I have a million things to do tonight, on top of not feeling well. Plus I am a bit heartbroken. I found out today my Grandfather will be unable to join us for the Easter holiday. Which saddens my heart. I was soooo looking forward to seeing him and visiting with him. I don't get to see him and visit with him as much as I would like to or want to. I need to start making it a must do and take the time.
Please keep my Grandfather in your thoughts and prayers! As he is a special part of our family and we would like it to remain that way!
I hope the Easter Bunny is good to you all ! :) I hope the sun is shining on all of us and in our hearts as well.
