How in the world is it Tuesday all ready?! Time just never stops, does it? Any way, since the last time I’ve posted, lots has happened. Yes, I did get some scrapping time!
On Maui’s birthday, her “Auntie Jennie” came to visit. She brought us a cake in celebration of Maui’s birthday – how sweet (no pun intended). Unfortunately, the little rug rat was not allowed to eat this cake; she had her own pupcake to devour.
"Please! I really want some of that."
Over the weekend, I went to visit my family. I haven’t spent time with all of them in a while, so I thought it would be fun! It felt good to just kick back, and enjoy some family time.
"I looooooove road trips!"
For her birthday, Maui got "Austin" from Uncle Scott.
My dad was thrilled that we visited.
We played Rock Band for hours!
Maui giving Uncle Scott lots of love.
I find this picture of Hoshi hilarious.
Boy, do they love each other! haha.
Khiara, my cousin, enjoyed playing with Maui.
Do you think I look like my mom?
Khiara is soooooo CUTE!
Playing outside brought back my childhood.
This is Maui... tired. haha.
The two of them kept racing each other!
I love Maui's face in this one!
Now, on to some scrapping stuff…
The Pretty Committee issued their second challenge for the month of February. I totally loved the concept of this challenge! You have to use a closeup of your eye and use eye make up somewhere on your layout. I used eyeshadow and eyeliner to highlight the large picture of my eye. Here’s mine:
Over at Pink Sketches, the DT rocked another awesome week with beautiful interpretations of Kelli’s sketch. I decided to create a layout about my parents’ 25th wedding anniversary cake. Come join us and follow this sketch:
I also finished a couple of layouts just for the pure joy of scrapping!
Last but not least, it’s RAK time!
Leave a comment with what makes you anxious or what makes you worry. You have until the dreaded Friday the 13th, up until 11:59pm, to post a comment to this post.
Hugs,
Sarah.

Beautiful photos. Looks like you had such a fun time this past week and that’s always a good thing. I worry about visiting my in-laws. =)

Oh, and I’m always anxious about my seizures. I have epilepsy and I always worry about when they’ll happen (since I’ll never know when).

Let’s see… well, I have really bad panic attacks sometimes where I can’t stop puking. It sucks, so I get a lot of anxiety from that (yay for pharmacuticles!)
But I guess, what I worry about the most is my daughter. That she is safe and happy and all that but more that I am rasing her to be a strong capable woman. I worry alot that I’m not a good enough mother and I don’t want her to get any of my faults!

Oh yeah… you and Maui look so cute in your coordinating striped sweaters! Awe!!!!

My job makes me worried all the time and so do my parents.
Or perhaps it’s just the stress those two topics give me.
Btw, I love your LOs that you made. Glad to hear you’re doing fantastic. Btw, did you get a new camera because your shots have improved.

My 4 y/o is a wild child. He gives me such anxiety areound others. He’s never met a stranger and will talk to anyone. That scares me!
Your puppy is SO cute…and I love Rock Band…my family designated me all time singer!

What makes me worry is that maybe I can’t have kids. We are trying for 6 months now and sometimes it scares me.

Loving both the new photos and the layouts, especially that eye one. What a great interpretation of your eye. I feel nervous thinking about bills and money issues.

Thanks for the compliment on my Story Matters layout! Your new layouts are adorable!
Driving on the interstate makes me extremely nervous. I’m not worried about my driving, but everyone else’s! LOL

I get anxious when I know my loved ones are traveling.

oh, I almost forgot: the current state of the environment makes me worry. We’re destroying our beautiful planet.

Sarah,
I think I love your dog. Seriously!! (I miss my schnauzer sooo much still!)
Great pages too, thanks for all the gorgeous inspiration.
As far as anxiety goes, various things set me off. Money, work are the biggest. I get freaked out if I can’t sleep (it’s silly but it’s true!) The environment is another worry, especially since becoming a Mom.
Take Care,
Vicki

When my brothers hurt, I worry so much about them. One of my brothers is going through alot right now and I worry to death about him. I love them both so much that I wish I could carry the weight for them….b/c I would.
But, he always comes and talks to me, so that makes me and him feel better.
I think you are very pretty, girl!! You look somewhat like your mom. Your cousin is adorable! And your layout is killer cool!
Hope you are having a great week!

Super cute pics!! What worries me? The fact that my thesis is due next week…and I am no where near done
February 10, 2009 at 7:53 pm
Deana
Well you & your mom are BOTH very pretty!
Love the LO’s especially the “eyes” LO… may have to try to do that one. I do love makeup!
Not entering the RAK, but Bryn’s food allergies are my definite worry… especially when she’s not with me.

Worried and anxious? Doctors, job security, health care, “being single forever,” meeting women, and driving in the fog.
You really need to do a LO about Chrissy and/or Lyca! I don’t think you’ve ever done one for Chrissy. And don’t give me that excuse about having no good pics of her.

my children make me worry sometimes. It’s hard to let go when they reach the teen years and want to leave the house all the time. I always want them home safe.

wow you’ve already scrapped photos of maui’s barkday. talk about fast. ok – my greatest worry at this time is house training our new maltese puppy (he’s 4 months old) who thinks the entire house is his toilet. sigh…i don’t know much about raising dogs that’s why i always take a peek at your blog to see your wonderful pups.

She’s sick for most of the time and there is nothing they can do about it!

I’m always worrying about losing my things, esp .my purse and cell phone. When I couldn’t find them (even though they’re in my bag), I’ll get very anxious and panic.

I love your blog updates about your dog. I am a puppy mommy, too and I love to see other people who love their dog as much as I love mine. I worry about my husband deploying and I’m really anxious when he’s gone.
