Happy Tax Day! LOL!

Did you get your taxes filed? Mine have been filed, received and spent. LOL! That was my London money.

On Tuesday morning I woke up to this very strange sound. I tired going back to sleep but the sound wouldn't stop. It was the alarm! LOL! I was so tired that I didn't even recognize it and tried to sleep through it. Thank goodness I got up and got to work on time.

Speaking of work....every time we have a long weekend or a vacation our school gets vandalized. Spring break was no different. We've being greeted each morning by walls that have bad words and gang names spray painted on them. Sad isn't it? I'm not sure why it's taking so long for someone to paint over it all or why they haven't covered some of the worst parts in some other way.

The really sad part is that last year after one long weekend they were able to figure out who some of the kids were that painted things on the buildings. They were only in the third grade! The joys of big city living...

OK, enough of that! Lets talk about something happier. Have you scraped your Easter pictures yet? Here's one more page I made using April's Easter Fun Kit...



At the rate I'm going, I'll have my Easter pictures done in time to start on next year's pictures. LOL!

I used the stamp frame and a background paper from Flowerscraps Soft and Sweet Kit to scrap some more pictures from my London trip. These are pictures from the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace.



Now, make sure you visit Deanna's blog to pick up today's part of the Soft and Sweet Kit!

I'm off to bed now. Enjoy your day!

What a long day!

WOW! Was it ever hard going back to work today. I missed my nap this afternoon. LOL! Of course, most of the morning was spent passing out the little gifts we bought for people in London and looking at pictures. The afternoon did drag on though! I'm not really sure how I'm still awake now. LOL!

Here's another layout I made using April's Easter Fun Kit. The first picture shows the kids before they started looking for the eggs and the second was taken after they had finished. It was really funny to watch them running around. Lots of times they had eggs falling out of their baskets and they didn't ever realize it.



If you like brag books April has made an adorable 4 page brag book using this Easter kit and it's only $1.99. Check it out here!

Did you go visit Deanna at Flowerscraps to get the first part of the Soft and Sweet kit? The second part is being given away today! It's the cutest kit and can be used for so many things other than baby pages. Here's the second layout I made with the kit...



Have you thought about joining a CT team? Shel at Shel Belle Scraps is looking to add some more members to her team. If you've ever thought about joining one this is the one to join! Shel is wonderful and so are her kits.

I'm having a blonde moment and I just can't remember if I shared this candy bar wrapper with you or not so I'm going to share it now. LOL! I made it using April's New Home Kit. I had a friend that moved and wanted to give candy bars with her new address to friends instead of the little postcards. You can never go wring with chocolate! LOL! Here's a preview for you. There's room on the back to add your new address...



Forgive me if you've already gotten this! If I haven't shared it or if I did and you didn't get it, you can download it here. Gosh, I feel stupid! LOL!

I used some papers from Flowerscraps Snakes and Snails Kit to scrap some pictures of The London Eye. We were really lucky and had a beautiful day when we took our ride on The Eye. It was a little cloudy, but the views were still great!



I've got to go to bed now. Enjoy your day!

My vacation is over

I have to admit that I'm bummed. Spring break is over and it's back to work for me. Sad isn't it? LOL!

I had time to play with some London pictures today. We were in Trafalgar Square on Palm Sunday and a small parade of a minister, a choir, a band and several people being led by a donkey came through. They were from St Martin in the Fields church and were walking through the city of London stopping in certain areas to sing a hymn and say a prayer before moving on. Anyone that wanted to join them in their walk was more than welcomed to.



The background papers that I used are from April's Great Grandma's Florals Kit Here's a preview of the kit for you...



I also played around with April's Easter Fun Kit to scrap some pictures from my class' Easter egg hunt.



It's a fun Easter kit and it's perfect for all those Easter pictures you took this weekend. Here's the preview for you to see...



Today Flowerscraps is giving away the first part of her new kit called Soft and Sweet on her blog. It's an adorable kit that was inspired by her pregnancy. Here's a preview of the kit...



And here is a layout I made using just a small part of everything you'll be getting for free...



You don't want to miss out on this kit so make sure you head over to Deanna's blog to pick it up!

Now, I've got to get some sleep. Enjoy your day!

I'm home!

I love going on vacation, but I love coming back home too! We returned from London yesterday. The plane home was an hour late taking off. yuck! Apparently, when you fly Virgin Atlantic out of London you aren't actually given your seat assignments until your tickets are printed at check in. That means that not everyone traveling together will be sitting together. There were actually children given seats in one place while their parents had seats in another. It took some time, but they finally got people to change seats so that the children were sitting with at least one of their parents and we could take off.

London was beautiful and we had fantastic weather! It didn't rain on us once! The locals that we spoke to said they couldn't believe the amazing weather. We told them that we brought it with us from Miami. LOL!

When you travel with a group of girls there are bound to be problems and we had ours. One of the girls with us wanted everyone to do what she wanted when she wanted and if she had her way we would have seen nothing of London but the subway and the free museums. Well, she didn't always get her way. LOL! It made her angry, but it sure didn't ruin our trip!

I've got a ton of pictures to share! Would you believe that I still haven't dug the camera out of my suitcase? Lazy, right? I slept for well over eight hours Thursday night then took a three hour nap on Friday afternoon. I think I'm all caught up on my sleep and back on Miami time now.

I've got tons of laundry to do, a DVR box to empty, books to read, pictures to scrap and a house to clean. I've got to do it all before going back to work on Monday. Wish me luck!
