Blogging Challenges



My beloved Get It Scrapped site is doing a wonderful blog challenge this month and I am busy playing a little catch up! Saturday’s challenge was a little photo scavenger hunt we were looking for three things, something you love, something yellow and something from above. One of mine turned out horrible so is not included but I bet you can guess which the other two are!

A Little Prompt

This is a little prompt I was directed to from this site: The Simple Woman’s Daybook

For Today – July 8th, 2009

Outside my window… are grey clouds and light breezes. And the four beautiful new trees standing in the ground.

I am thinking… I’m glad to be catching up on a few projects.

From the learning rooms…the house is quiet two girls asleep and John still at work.

I am thankful for… the peace that I have back today.

From the kitchen… I think we are having something with leftover turkey for dinner.

I am wearing… Comfy dark blue cargo capris and a pink old navy shirt. i am a little bit of a slouch today but I sure am comfortable.

I am reading… nothing right now.

I am hoping… to get one more chore done today and some scrapbooking time.

I am creating… lots of pages for challenges.

I am praying… for my husband and family always.

Around the house… we are finally pulling it all together. The basement still needs some organization but without shelving it may have to wait.

One of my favorite things… in my new home is my new scrapping table.

A few plans for the rest of the week… Clean up the floors, get ready for a training on Saturday, get our bed put back together, and have many people run through to do all sorts of minor repairs.
