So I have been a little busy

trying to get this finished for the twins 1st birthday party next weekend.  Yes you read right next Friday, the peas will be ONE!!!  It is so hard to believe that this time last year we were recovering from Shelli's shower, little did we know the boys would be arriving later the next week-boy does time fly!!!!

I have lots of things to share, but will have to wait till after next week, partly because I am still working on it and partly because it is a surprise too!! 

Also, I was lucky enough to be chosen to the Design Team for The Scrapbook Princess and will be teaching my very 1st mini album class Feb. 11th and I would tell everyone to join me but the class sold out in 2 days!!!  WOO-HOO

That is all for now... gotta get busy finishing up some scrappy surprises :)

Failing miserably

at trying to post weekly on the blog, and yes I know it is only 2 weeks into the new year-LOL
I have a good excuse or being sick for most of the week and awfully busy at work.  I am sure these next pics will make up for my laziness seeing as they are from our Christmas celebration this year.

WOW.. 2012 is here

May 2012 be all that you want it to be... we are in charge of our destiny so make the most of
everyday!!!  I promise to be a little more consistent this year as I really work towards several "resolutions" that I am hoping to stick with, one of them being better about blogging, along with the standard losing weight and purging the house out. 

9 Years...

ago I married the most wonderful man in the world!!!  I wouldn't trade him for all the tea in China either... we just complete each other.  So all you single ladies out there have faith because your prince charming will come along and I PROMISE you it is worth the wait!!

Spooky cuteness!!!

We just finished up Halloween at the Carson abode and tell me if these aren't the cutest trick-or-treaters you have ever seen??

Deacon was the cuddly lion and Cannon was the isty bitsy spider.

Here are a couple of pics of the house once it was spookified too...

Sketchy Thursdays

Now that I have been able to get a little scrappy time in, one of my favorite places for inspiration is Sketchy Thursdays , every Thursday they have a new sketch posted and it is great way to jump start a layout.

Here is mine for this week

I used this great Echo Park Happy Days line to showcase my oh so cute cousin Brooke as she wore ate a cupcake one day at the ballpark.

So if your mojo isn't flowing stop by Sketchy Thursdays and let them help you out!! :)

I'm Back.... Finally

So I have finally made it back to the blog and I am going to try and be better about posting on a more regular basis...  :)

We have a new addition to our family and her name is Blaze

For those you out of the loop, this brings our inside count back to FOUR and TWO outside that we officially claim, I guess you can classify us as crazy cat lovers.  But she is awfully sweet and playful and the other kitties seem to be adjusting pretty well to her being in the house, we are down to just an occasional hiss-hahaha.

Lots of things going on in the Carson household and we stay pretty busy... in case anybody forgot I have twin nephews that require my spoiling at least once a week or so,  and I am slowly getting back to some scrappiness, which I will be showing off in a later post after I take a few pics.  The Scrapbook Princess, my favorite scrappy store and now only store in the area, is going to have a design team and I am trying out for it, so I have been busy working on my submissions.

That's a quick synopsis of the past few weeks and I promise to be back with more later this week!!!
