Izzy can FINALLY ride Shamu Express!

She has wanted to ride the roller coaster at Sea World since we first went there a year ago. You have to be 38" tall to ride it so she was never tall enough. Finally today she was tall enough (maybe she is a hair short but they still let her).

I even bought the picture they sell you :). She loved it.

My funny conversation with Izzy this morning

So we are on the way to my Mom's this morning. Izzy starts talking about going to Sea World (which she does every day). Starts talking about the different animals there. Then this conversation happens:

I: Shamu has a tail.
Me: Yes, Shamu has a tail.
I: Tigers have tails.
Me: Yes, Tigers have tails.
I: I don't have a tail, I have a butt
Me: laughing, yes, you have a butt.

Then she proceeds to list everyone that has butts (Daddy has a butt, Mema has a butt, Bepa has a butt, aunt tina has a butt, etc).

Last week when I was getting dressed one morning. I had on my bra and pants. Izzy walks in and goes "Mommy you have big boobs and I have small ones". I just started laughing and agreed with her.

I am going to try to write down (via this blog) some of the funny stuff she says and does so I can remember these.

My one Layout this week

I also bought Izzy her Easter dress. Its not a traditional dress but I still love it!! She wanted to try it on so I took a picture of her in it:

My weekend

Over the weekend I went to GA to goto a scrapbooking retreat. It was lots of fun and I was able to get more done then I would have ever been able to at home. I spent most of my time making pages for my sister to give to a friend of hers getting married this weekend. It's hard to scrapbook without picture though. Here is what I did:





lift the transpiracy and this is underneath:

































There are for a license plate swap:

Today scrapbook creations - Izzy even made one :)

I actually spend some time scrapbooking today. I made two layouts and a card. Izzy even made her first layout. Here is what she did:

We went to St Louis from the 19th-24th for My grandparents surprise birthday party. My grandma was turning 80 and my grandfather 84. It was tons of fun! Here are a few pictures.

Here is a slide show to more pictures, if you click on it you can see it bigger. I have a lot more pictures but I will load them on snapfish and send them out so everyone can print them.

Another long overdue post......

Totally slacking on this but oh well.... Not a whole lot to update. I have some new pictures to share of different things we have done over the last month or so but my hard drive on my computer is full so its so freaking slow to do anything and I just get annoyed so don't bother. I have an external hard drive that everything is backed up on but I want everything in two places so I need to get another external harddrive so I can have a backup.

But here are some pictures that I do have to share. My SIL and niece are here from NY for the week. Last night I took some pictures and this was the only one I was able to work on b/c of the slow computer issue. I think she looks really pretty:



Here is the same picture but converted to black and white:




I have tons more pictures to share b/c while they were here we went Ice Skating (here is a link to a short video of Izzy iceskating: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=al2NsJIm6zU and to Gatorland zoo but I have to drive to Jacksonville tomorrow for a meeting for work and then Thursday, Izzy and I are going to St Louis for the week so when I get back it will be picture overload.

Here are the few scrapbooking projects I worked on. These are for swaps:
