We enjoyed a wonderful church service and were happy to give up our usual pew to see such a packed church!!! We enjoyed dinner with my paternal grandparents and cousins and then the afternoon hanging out with my husband's paternal grandma and TONS of cousins! <br />

Marissa and I made these eggs and stayed up way too late on Saturday night!<br />

They turned out SOOO amazing!!! I spent $3 at the local thrift store on silk scarves and an old bed sheet. Here's the<a href="http://www.skiptomylou.org/2011/04/06/silk-tie-dyed-eggs-tutorial/"> tutorial</a> that I used. FYI-your eggs need to be boiled before you start. I'm gonna be on the lookout for some cool silk ties, shirts, and scarves over the next year!!! <br />

Marissa is always wanting to "help" me in the kitchen. Last night she helped me to make spaghetti. She poured the sauce and helped stir it being very careful not to get burnt on the hot stove. She also buttered the garlic bread! These pictures will be GREAT to add to the photobook cookbook I'm working on!Nicholehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00990815515113823982noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6898070489841291991.post-75673147560757229702011-04-14T09:58:00.000-05:002011-04-14T09:58:21.186-05:00Baby Shower CardI was sooo excited to finally get back into my scrapbooking room last night! That was until I discovered that my Gypsy had a cracked screen!!! I was sooo disappointed when I couldn't use my cricut b/c I'd loaned out all my cartridges to my mom and a friend of mine! My friend did end up having the cart that I really wanted so I was able to get it from her last night and continue working on a Baby shower card for a friend from high school. The shower is this Sunday. I was interrupted to go on an ambulance call before I was done with card, but still managed to come home and finish it! Here's the card: Sorry for the bad cell phone pic!<br />

I'm sure there is some way to do it, but I'm just a little technology ignorant in that department. Today I discovered Windows Live Movie Maker, came built in on my new laptop, super easy, does JUST what I want it to and then a tiny bit more, I can put all my clips together and create one video with them to burn to a DVD :) I can even add a Title Page, captions anywhere and still pictures. I am SOOOO excited, I can't wait to start making my own home videos! I also discovered that my camera wasn't set to the best video quality and I'm really happy with the result of changing it to the best. Good thing I got that new 16 GB SD Card!!!<br />

"We don't want Ryan to grow up, because he's TOO cute!"<br />
"RYAN JOSEPH!"-This is a pretty frequent Marissa quote :)<br />
<br />
Ryan has been saying more and more new words EVERY day, he has been repeating everything and even<br />
some of the stuff he doesn't say I know he understands, like if I say, "Ryan, will you get mommy her <br />
phone, he'll actually bring it to me!" Ryan started saying, "sock," he puts an extra C in there though and I'll<br />
just let ya imagine what comes out! He also learned to say, "yeehaw," when he's riding a horsey and he's<br />
totally obsessed with his, "boots."

I bought Photoshop Elements 9 a few weeks ago and have been trying to
get it all figured out, I'm starting to really get all the layers down, I
think. Here's a little something I edited today, I"m pretty happy with
the outcome!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I thought I'd start a weekly post of the things the kids say that make me laugh, a few that make me cry, and maybe a little bit of the in betweens. Ryan is not quite the chatterbox his big sis is yet, but I'm sure it won't be long, he's saying new words ALL the time. I thought this was a neat idea after seeing the quotable quotes post on Erin's Blog <a href="http://kennyanderin.blogspot.com/search?q=quotable+quotes">Sunny Side UP</a>. <br />
<br />
A conversation Marissa and I had in the van approaching our intersection:<br />
Marissa: I see my house!!!<br />
Me: Who's house is it? <br />
Marissa: Mine<br />
Me: Well actually it's my house and Daddy's, but we share it with you because we love you. When you turn 18 you have to move out and go to school and get a job and buy your own house, but it can't be very far away b/c I'll miss you.<br />
Marissa: (Gives me a look that I can't describe and makes me feel like the worst parent ever since my 3 year old was taking this conversation VERY seriously!)<br />
Me: It's a really long time until you turn 18, you'll be a lot bigger then. You can go to college like Aunt Rachel when you turn 18!<br />
<br />
Today while talking about my 47 year old uncle who lives at home with my grandparents I decided I didn't regret this conversation. When asked what she's going to do when she turns 18, she now proudly announces, "Move outta the house" I hope I'm not causing any psychological damage, since really I'd probably let her live with me until the end of time, MOST days anyway.<br />

I'm really loving my new style now though, so I'm planning to keep it up, which means more than 1 trip/year to the beauty salon! <br />

I had to search shutterfly for some pics for this, I bought a new laptop so I don't have many pictures on it yet. I hope to make many many more templates to share! I've got to work tonight but sometime I'll figure out how to share the psd file via blog with ya!<br />

I have a little experience with a sewing machine, I've pieced a few quilts, I made a few clothing items in high school home economics which weren't exactly wearable. I found these <a href="http://www.skiptomylou.org/2010/07/24/camera-strap-cover-tutorial/">fairly simple instruction</a>s for making your own camera strap. My strap by all means did NOT turn out PERFECT, but it is usable and I LOVE it. I especially LOVE the way it feels when I put my camera around my neck as the regular strap kinda rubs and isn't really very comfortable. I plan to make several more of these, I have a whole box of scrap material begging to be used!!! I may even get a little fancier with the next one, making ruffles, using 2 different fabrics, maybe some minky, OH the possibilities! <br />

I hadn't been right clicking on the tool so I didn't know that I could even change options here. SOOO glad I figured this out and now I have a little more complete looking layouts!<br />

I'm sooo excited to start editing my pictures with it, but I have SOOOO much to learn about it too! I have figured out how to use it for making Scrapbook pages, except I had some trouble adding text to it. I made these pages using templates, which I'm in love with right now!<br />

They recently did a MAJOR remodel of their living room and wanted a BIG picture of all 4 of their grand kids to hang above the couch. My baby boy wasn't feeling well the day we took these and I don't believe my daughter had a nap, so getting just a few shots was a miracle!<br />

Approx. 30 min after we got them all lit up on the front porch a Ford Escape with a couple kids pulled up in front of the house just as Bob walked into the living room. They sat there for about 10 minutes, turned their dome light on and then left. I'm not sure they were planning to take my pumpkins BUT I'm suspicious enough to set them down where they won't be visible from the street tonight! It's entirely possible they were cruising down Main street and needed to stop to look for something in the car. <br />
Here's some pics:<br />

Next I think I will try stapling my ribbon. What unique ribbon ideas have you tried?<br />

I've been playing with the collages on Picnik and I LOVE them. So many of the scrapbook mags that I have show pics of layouts with collages in the center. I may upload these collages to shutterfly and then print them out as 8x8 scrapbook pages to use on my 12x12 paper scrapbook. Here's what I've got:<br />
