Found this recently when going through old pictures and since schools back this week I thought it was fitting. HA HA. Funny enough I look pretty much exactly the same minus the stylish uniform. Although I would love to have a uniform now everyday!!
Like the new blog header?? Maybe I’ll have a poll tomorrow. LOL!!!
Back from Chicago and trying to settle back into things. Had a great time although it was super HOT but it was hot here in NYC too from what I heard! I think we walked about a bizzilion miles but ate tons of good food (hot dogs, pizza and more pizza – deep dish)! Not sure how I did it but I think I gained like 7lbs in 4 days! The diet really needs to start tomorrow.
Anyways, will post pictures once I go through them -we have 500 of them. I’ll fill you in tomorrow about all the adventures and CHA. So nice to go away but so nice to be home. Can’t wait to sleep in my own bed tonight!
Enjoyed a nice leisurely day yesterday going to lunch and some errands. The weather was gorgeous and the city is much emptier on these holiday weekends, which is such a treat! Been working today on my portfolio, some new products and client designs. I’ve been plugging away for a few hours but feel like the creativity is coming to an end. Maybe a late day shower will pep me up?
Anyways, here a cute picture of John & I from the wedding the other day. Frame from Shabby Miss Jenn. More to come…
I promised my parents I would post on my blog the beautiful flower bouquet they gave me for my birthday. It’s funny cause they requested it be on the blog. Too funny!
I can’t believe it’s all over with…Christmas that is. It goes back faster and faster as the years go by. Anyways, I do hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday! We had a nice time with the family and the kids make it fun. My little cousins crack me up and I’m so happy we got to meet the newest addition to the clan, Baby “O”.
For the past few weeks I have been super busy trying to get 2 scrapbooks done for my little cousins for Christmas gifts. I finally finished them just in time for Christmas…phew…and I’m so happy with the way they turned out. I’m still working on all of the credits but here is a cute picture I want to share. It’s of Kayla looking at her book (which kinda gave me a heart attack since I wasn’t sure if she was going to rip it and throw it..LOL!) Anyways, she looks like she likes what she sees so that’s good. =)
Thanks to everyone who sent birthday wishes either by email, phone, mail, blog or in person. I really appreciated it and it put a smile on my face. My birthday is at a tough time of year so for all of you who went out of your way THANKS! And for all of my friends who did NOTHING well you suck! (I do know some of you had real reasons though) Anyways, you made me realize that from now on I’m not going out of my way for anyone anymore. I know that sounds bad but I’m sick of always being the “nice” person who does everything for everyone. Now that I’m 30 I’m not holding back..watch out! Plus I’m not that concerned about these people being offended since the people in question don’t even read my blog anyways.
Speaking of my birthday we went to see Juno which has my girl Jennie G in it. It was a cute movie and it made me laugh. I wanted more interaction between Jason Bateman and Michael Cera though since they were in Arrested Development together. Oh well..still funny.
I’m off this week and have been SUPER LAZY! Maybe I’m just burnt out from creative stuff but I’m just so tired. I guess it’s a good time of year to just chill and recharge but I feel guilty about doing nothing. Although we have been watching tons of movies, so that makes me feel like we are doing something. I am catching up on my “cinematic adventures” as Dane Cook would say. LOL!
Anyways, that’s enough rambling for me today. This is the most I’ve typed in awhile…my hands hurt. Ha ha ha!
Happy New Year and talk to you soon!
Here’s a layout I did of my cousin Alex from my collaborative kit,
Action Jackson. Love the Quick Page that Audra did for this one!
And I’ll leave you with a cool shot I took the other day while in
Brooklyn. I played around with this in Lightroom and I think it
came out pretty cool!
Almost Friday…thank god! Talk to you later!
So I won the Photo of the Week Contest over at the Pink Ink Blog..super awesome! I’m lovin’ taking pictures these days…especially at the ball field. More to come since we are going to another game this weekend. Let’s Go Mets! See the new Mets blinkie over there? =)
I took a break this weekend…well a short one from designing to enjoy taking some photos. We went to a street fair and I snapped up some cool shots. I’ve been playing around in Lightroom which is a great program I’ve discovered. I have a better time with it since I’m using Andie Smith’s Road Trip Presets. They are awesome as well as a few other items from Pink Ink Studios. I really want to pick up these presets by Holly. Maybe if I sell some stuff this $2 Wednesday…we’ll see. LOL!
Anyways, here’s a few of my photos (well the first one my husband took but I funked it up):
I’ll share some more tomorrow.
Toddles,
