March...in like a Lion?

Yeah, I guess it kind of was. It was COLD this morning when I was driving to work. Later in the morning it was gorgeous though!! Sunny...oh the sun felt sooooo good! But some places, March definately came in like lion, so lets say prayers for everyone who has gone through the storms in the Midwest today.

Well I got that page done yesterday, you know, the one that I said was going to be simple? Yeah, that one! Ha! Didn't turn out simple at all *L* Doesn't surprise me though, I seem to do that a lot..thinking..oh this would look good, and how about that? And my simple pages ends up not so simple, but that is cool, I love playing around and watching a page progress as I am working on it! So here is that not so simple page (you probably can't see it but there is doodling all around the outside of the page and around the photo mat) *L*
Kayden blowing out her candles on her second birthday. Yeah I know I have scrapped this photo already *L* I do that a lot too, and the other time was a digi page.

I used sponsor product from 3 Bugs In A Rug(the letter stickers and die cut tags). 3 bugs is our sponsor this month at TTS. Gosh you want some awesome inspiration go check out the gallery there!!! And if you would be so inclined, you might want to join in on our March game and have a chance to win an awesome GC to the store there, and a GDT spot for April!

Now for a review of Feb, thanks to Katie the scrapbook lady.......

What books and/or magazines did I read this month?
Just scrapping Magazines and some women's mags...can't remember the names right now :)

What movies and/or tv shows did I watch this month?
Jim, Jo and I watched You, Me and Dupree *L* funny movie! That Owen Wilson is a crack up! Of course I watched my Grey's Anatomy! That's my can't miss show of the week!! OMG and if you are a Grey's fan it was a heck of a month! I cried like a baby! Also NCIS and one of DH's new favs, and one I am liking myself Shark. And lets not forget NASCAR!!! Yeah!! NASCAR is back, so you know I will be watching that every weekend!!

What special days did I celebrate and how?
Valentine's Day was this month, and Jim and I went out to a Valentine's banquet put on by the gun club. It was fun, the food was great and we met some new people.

What gifts did I give and/or receive?
I gave Jim Flags of our Fathers and a coupon book I made for him, for Valentine's day

What illnesses or health concerns did I have?
Our accident was the biggest worry with the injuries we suffered. It could have been much worse, but this is bad enough.

What fun things did I do with my friends and/or family?
Jim and I went shooting, and we took Jo to Rainbow Basin, it is so pretty there. I didn't get to go to any crops this month because there was too much going on with Jo leaving for MA. and the Nascar races being in Fontana this past weekend. Jim, Charlie and I went to the truck races and then to Hooters for dinner YUMMMM one of my fav places to eat! Jim and I went to the Busch race and had a great time. I visited Jillian in the hospital while she was in labor with Caleb!! Had a fun time visiting with Erica and Jillians hubby Pat while I was there also. :) Jillian had Caleb about 2 hours after I left! *L* I also got a friend request from my neice Mal, on My Space and I was tickled!! So now I have all but 1 neice on My Space friends list!! How cool is that!!

What new foods, recipes or restaurants did I try this month?
Boy was I lacking in this area this month! I did make a tortilla casserole that I haven't made since I moved out here. I don't think Jim was terribly impressed *L* but I liked it. We ate at the Green Tree for the Valentine's banquet, it was buffet style and really good! Oh and I found a new love, one I have to be careful not to indulge in *L* Orange Cranberry muffins from Vons! They are so good...and moist!

What special or unusual purchases did I make?
The only special purchase I made was for Jim's Valentine's gift, oh and I guess Jo's plane ticket so she could go back to MA. Other than that it was the same old same old *L*

What were this month's disappointments?
The accident was a huge one!!!

What were my accomplishments this month?
Getting the house back to ourselves was a major accomplishment! And getting ym scrap room back!!!

Anything else noteworthy to record? Maybe next month *wink*
