I'll have to wait until the kids get up in the morning to take the picture that I need to complete it. Daddy's Shoes is the name of the layout.

A very dear friend found my blog and I am sad to say that they found it at the worst time. I have not updated it for 2 months so I guess I really should get on the ball and start documenting somethings in my life. I love to share my life with friends and family. So back to the grind stone for me the BAD BLOGGER!!<br />Good to hear from you also!<br /><br />I will put in some new layouts and maybe a picture or two tomorrow!<br /><br />Have a great night,<br /><br />CindyLouCindyLouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13442291114629131657noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4288627943797332114.post-8435142411750277862009-03-30T14:58:00.002-07:002009-03-30T15:20:20.167-07:00Looking for Brag Book pageIf you are here looking for the Brag book page just <strong>scroll down</strong> a little more and you will see it!!

We had so much fun. It is one of the few times we can all get together and just chat. Life has gotten so busy for all of us that we rarely get together anymore. Between family, school, and scrapbooking life has just gotten a little crazy. I'm so glad that we had the chance to get together even if it was just for only one day. I will post some pictures later today (Hopefully)! I still gotta get back to cleaning the house. Took a day off yesterday now I gotta make up for lost time.

Hope you enjoy the ride....don't forget to leave some love in the comments section at each stop to say "thank you" to the ladies who worked hard to make this possible. </span><br /><br /><span style="COLOR: rgb(192,192,192);font-size:130%;" >Here is my BB to download.</span><br /><span style="COLOR: rgb(192,192,192);font-size:130%;" ><br /><br /></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0eTbf4vsTNu4s3jMEPOEL_NVn-igesBluryeAqn_4vKhMRnYrrUnKXR648_UXSdvLmUKD9fhRifVTnPYxEUYAMNiB0iVNuedv7hG2OBuwc1qakpC7TTn0nfl0MOnGbRS6mzUyz1akMeI/s1600-h/Spring-Awakening-Blog-BB.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: pointer" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313984303109535234" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0eTbf4vsTNu4s3jMEPOEL_NVn-igesBluryeAqn_4vKhMRnYrrUnKXR648_UXSdvLmUKD9fhRifVTnPYxEUYAMNiB0iVNuedv7hG2OBuwc1qakpC7TTn0nfl0MOnGbRS6mzUyz1akMeI/s400/Spring-Awakening-Blog-BB.jpg" /></a><span style="COLOR: rgb(192,192,192);font-size:130%;" ><span style="TEXT-DECORATION: underline"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><a href="http://www.4shared.com/file/94349157/56372d78/Spring_Awakening_Blog_BB_copy.html">http://www.4shared.com/file/94349157/56372d78/Spring_Awakening_Blog_BB_copy.html</a><br /></span></span><a href="http://www.4shared.com/file/93330843/4d1f4ebb/_3__Spring_Awakening_Blog_BB_copy.html"><span style="COLOR: rgb(51,0,0); FONT-WEIGHT: bold"></span></a><br /><br /><br />Enjoy the train!<br /><br />CindyLou<br /><br /></span>CindyLouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13442291114629131657noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4288627943797332114.post-63917165139505754782009-02-23T17:46:00.003-07:002009-02-23T19:30:09.121-07:00Ocean Wonders<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZdp2ZNmHhZg-3hKhoQfnB8cesq__LE2CzhmzI8KbyMQiJPIOMRnrgTeXbvJXAvJhf_J96COh6z_JNafoKMje27NYLdMZfxSso74MKxIMikQsbZ9y-i4oJmEOfSwMP3WxyavM3yQlCk8w/s1600-h/Tranquility.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZdp2ZNmHhZg-3hKhoQfnB8cesq__LE2CzhmzI8KbyMQiJPIOMRnrgTeXbvJXAvJhf_J96COh6z_JNafoKMje27NYLdMZfxSso74MKxIMikQsbZ9y-i4oJmEOfSwMP3WxyavM3yQlCk8w/s400/Tranquility.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306159754896513986" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiS8I7pb40YA_levbu09iMXxlvryNmTDIi-ms3TU8ZbCqTbDlsXpKB6i1RdbOI3QNRPZfnCNLwqdWWv3jCFuh2bHZ77KICt1hBuJZdoIzP9QyR0nGJ8D_wBQrObJkh7nP9mR8ZSJCBIsUM/s1600-h/Ocean-Memories.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiS8I7pb40YA_levbu09iMXxlvryNmTDIi-ms3TU8ZbCqTbDlsXpKB6i1RdbOI3QNRPZfnCNLwqdWWv3jCFuh2bHZ77KICt1hBuJZdoIzP9QyR0nGJ8D_wBQrObJkh7nP9mR8ZSJCBIsUM/s400/Ocean-Memories.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306159756811848978" border="0" /></a>I wanted to show off these layouts using Ocean Wonders by my newest designer, Angel.<br /><br />We spent time on the Oregon coast when we lived in Portland.

It was at a chat with Colie at Scrap Outside The Box. She is the Designer of the Month for January; boy has she had some great deals and giveaways too. I think I have picked up at least 1/2 of her store. Thank goodness for prizes that I have won and gift certificates that I have received for playing at SOTB.<br />The layout is made with Gabby's Dream by Colie's Corner.<br />She also gave us the template to use at the speedy crop.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqM96CP6omox8PzZmxgjfTJ0YT6nDBfhyphenhyphen-YC6yM9oeLGS-BfklI_HNRc-PGYolAnYPzrbzKn1Cle4zqVD18HJc3bd0xS_H9cipcV3XkhhOV1l28Zcrjh0Lgcv5oU9duCW1B1kMIzZo_UY/s1600-h/We-wish-you-a-Merry-Christm.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqM96CP6omox8PzZmxgjfTJ0YT6nDBfhyphenhyphen-YC6yM9oeLGS-BfklI_HNRc-PGYolAnYPzrbzKn1Cle4zqVD18HJc3bd0xS_H9cipcV3XkhhOV1l28Zcrjh0Lgcv5oU9duCW1B1kMIzZo_UY/s400/We-wish-you-a-Merry-Christm.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5295740794884751058" border="0" /></a><br />I loved this template so much that I flipped it and did a matching layout of Christmas for Colin.<br />Again I used one of Colie's kits!!<br />Chill Out Remix is a fun and really boy kit; perfect for my guys.<br /><br />Everyone is doing good today.

I love to go to different stores and galleries and see what everyone is doing. I am learning to try new techniques. I have completed all but one challenge at Scrap Outside the Box and have done several at K-Joi also. I really enjoy the time I spend on my layouts and seeing what I can come up with that is different.<br /><br /><br /><br />This first layout is called Angels and Man. It was a scraplift challenge at SOTB.<br />I just love this word art and his photo turned out pretty good.

Just a quick update on the family. McKenzie is feeling much better. Her eyes are healing up beautifully. We have another appointment in about 3 weeks. She hasn't complained about them in several days and the red is almost gone. Woohoo!<br />Colin has had a little bit of a stomach bug the last 3 days. He seems to be on the mend now, but we had to reschedule his 15 month check-up until next week. I didn't want to give him shots when he was already feeling bad. Poor little guy, he has never been a baby that gets sick. This is the first time he has ever vomitted, so he was pretty scared. Other than that we have been healthy and happy.<br /><br />I will have another layout for the 365 challenge sometime today or tomorrow. I really have been taking pictures everyday.

I always forget to say anything and forgot to go in today too. But I came back just for all of you.<br /><br />McKenzie had her eye surgery and all went well. She went to the hospital Tuesday at 12:30 and we were home by 9pm. The surgery went very well and she is up and running around. The doctor gave us some pain medicine to give to her, but she really doesn't like taking it. When she starts to get really irritable then I kind of force the issue, but there is no reason for her to be in pain. She looks horrible, but it really doesn't seem to bother her much.<br /><br />We went in for the doctor to check her yesterday. The assistant was the one that we actually worked with on the check-up. He said that it all looked great and that we would see them next week.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhggFk36EZaDmG9UFhIHrmK6-zjcmembjRZyWVk_9IBveLcRQrrtMghGghkQfO8kYiPSJD9QI3rLlqeJ3JIr8mIdTv5utCIMuQr75tFzSugqK1tHQ9gBb4PAECM66WCk9AduuSEOgMjl28/s1600-h/My-Girl-a.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhggFk36EZaDmG9UFhIHrmK6-zjcmembjRZyWVk_9IBveLcRQrrtMghGghkQfO8kYiPSJD9QI3rLlqeJ3JIr8mIdTv5utCIMuQr75tFzSugqK1tHQ9gBb4PAECM66WCk9AduuSEOgMjl28/s400/My-Girl-a.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288952690008808146" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwMnIr4kMv_5Lib85jj2vYiU_cGByFDQkxeMSiyJi8HejUuZmF8jyyNoUFa7Lm4QoBnTnaYaQOKhUYrvdb4JCHQtIf5cRh7bxgmWcw13woR23xfdwhVAB7m-2DcBEhaCju4f-s2yfCuyE/s1600-h/My-Girl.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwMnIr4kMv_5Lib85jj2vYiU_cGByFDQkxeMSiyJi8HejUuZmF8jyyNoUFa7Lm4QoBnTnaYaQOKhUYrvdb4JCHQtIf5cRh7bxgmWcw13woR23xfdwhVAB7m-2DcBEhaCju4f-s2yfCuyE/s400/My-Girl.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5288952701598679058" border="0" /></a><br />My Girl was a super fun LO to make.

I used pieces of a huge collaboration kit that was given to the people that make layouts with all the amazing designers' kits. We are also known as the Creative Teams. CT's It was called Grateful 4U.<br />Patty put up a challenge for a healthy recipe.<br />Link to challenge:<br />http://www.scrapoutsidethebox.com/forums/showthread.php?p=70089#post70089<br />I used a template from Scrapinge @ scrapinge.blogspot.com. The recipe was off of the Food Network. I really am going to this one a try. (Promise!!)<br /><br />Recipe:<br />Healthy Carrot Muffins<br />3/4 C. all-purpose flour<br />1/2 C. whole wheat flour<br />2/3 C. dark brown sugar<br />2 T. wheat germ<br />2 tsp. ground cinnamon<br />1 tsp. baking powder<br />1/2 tsp. baking soda<br />Pinch fine salt<br />2 large eggs<br />1/3 C. vegetable oil<br />1 T. pure vanilla extract<br />4 medium carrots, grated (about 2 cups)<br />1/2 C. canned crushed pineapple, drained<br /><br />Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line twelve 1/2-cup muffin cups with paper muffin liners. Whisk the flours with the brown sugar, wheat germ, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, & salt in a medium bowl. In another medium bowl lightly whisk the egg, then whisk in the vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Quickly and lightly fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with a rubber spatula. Stir in the carrots & pineapple just until evenly moist; the batter will be very thick. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. Bake until golden & a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Turn muffins out of the tins and cool on a rack. Serve warm.<br /><br />There is also a quote that goes around the edge of the layout.<br />Quote:<br />Now there are more overweight people in America than average-weight people. So overweight people are now average. Which means you've met your New Year's resolution. Jay Leno<br /><br />Anyway, that was a lot longer than expected so I had better get something done today! LOL!!<br /><br />Love and hugs,<br /><br />CindyLouCindyLouhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13442291114629131657noreply@blogger.com1
