Milestones.

Last night at the gym was weigh in day. I have been working very hard these past few weeks(even with a nasty cold) and its finally paying off. I marked a major milestone yesterday. I'm now down 51 pounds. I feel much better, I eat much healthier, and I'm actually considering doing a triathlon. If anyone would have asked me last September (2008) if I thought I could do a triathlon, I might have laughed. I have upped the swimming to 4-5 days a week and continue with my gym workouts 5 days a week. My entire gym class got to do 51 burpees yesterday all thanks to me!

Sick

I have had a nasty cold since Thursday sore throat and a cough. So I have been at home doing some scrapbooking and working on some swaps I'm participating in at http://www.twopeasinabucket.com/ I had this really cute new Christmas paper from Basic Grey I have been wanting to use and finally got a chance to.

The recipe cards above I made for a breakfast food swap at 2 peas.

These are pictures from cookie making this year. I really like these papers from Basic Grey.

A LO for a challenge at http://www.serendipityscrapbooks.com/

Some Lollipop flowers for a swap I did a whole bunch of these, they were fun to make.

Another LO challenge from http://www.serendipityscrapbooks.com/

More Lollipop flowers, I told you I made a whole bunch of them!

There's even more but I'm not going to post all of them.

New Year New Phone

I'm sure I'm probably not supposed to use this photo I stold from Apple's website, but I just got an iPhone and I love it! You can do pretty much anything with it. I figured I was worth the extra $20 a month, LOL! I also got a new desk for my craft room and I hope to post some good pictures of it soon. Happy New Year everyone, I hope 2010 is a good one.

Last Minute Gifts.

Merry Christmas Eve, everyone! I hope you all have a very merry Christmas. I'm at home today making some last minute gifts. I got the recipes here at Bakerella's website. Enjoy your day and I hope none of you have to go to the mall, like my sister. I would have whipped these up last night, but I was enjoying unexpected time with some of my family. I will post the finished product soon.

Home Made Gifts.

I'm making some Mini albums for Zoey and Emily of their family, for Christmas. I'm almost done I just have 2 pages left. These are some of the first pages. I also have fabric alphabets for them from a swap on 2 Peas and a Bucket. I'm also working on a blog post about some other homemade goodies I will be working on tonight. MERRY CHRISTMAS. It's all about the giving!

The big day is almost here!

The big day is almost here. Enjoy the time you are spending with your family and friends. Christmas is truly "the most wonderful time of the year." I have been busy wrapping up some last minute gifts. I just finished all of my shopping and all of the presents are wrapped under the tree. Enjoy your Christmas everyone!!!

It was 29 degrees out this morning.

Its soooo cold here and only going to get colder it makes me think of my last trip to Cabo....... ahhh, sunshine, sand and tequila........ So in honor of the cold I thought I would share some sunny happy vacation LO's. Although, everything was very pretty this morning covered in frost. Enjoy winter because before too long we will be complaining about the heat, yeah right!
