Sudden Death Round!!!!!!!!....hahahaha

In this corner we have "Knock 'em dead Kayla" and in the other corner we have "TKO Suz"....................since they both answered my tie breaker question correctly (HEIDI SWAPP) we move on to Sudden Death!!!!!!!!!!!!

Last question: Kayla and Suz..........Where was my first DT Gig?
Hint: it was not ScrapJazz!

I have started to assemble this little RAK for ya chick-a-dees (oh now i want Chick-fil-A sandwich, damn!).......and it's got some goodies!!!

I want to announce a winner today, so I can get this in the mail on Saturday....or Tuesday because of the holiday.

Shoppin' Like Madd Yesterday!
I had the day off yesterday and planned to still take Jaden to daycare..........but I had a DER moment. I left my purse in my car last night, duh. David drove the night before with HIS keys and set the alarm. Thankfully, my Mommy came to the rescue and picked us up. BUT, now don't frown on me for this one, I didn't have Jaden in a car seat! Just buckled him in. I know, I know but let's move on. Mind you, I would have had an absolute heart attack if someone like say, my sister in law did this.

So we had lunch at Chicken Scratch Flats then went to the mall. I rented Jaden a friken $5 dollar stroller ($5 dollars!!!!!!!!) and since I had no purse, I had no cashola. I was riding on Mom's dime all day! She got me 2 pairs of shoes, a scarf, 2 jumbo beaded necklaces, a blouse and a pair of boots for Jaden! I made out like a champ! Thanks MOM!

David got out of work at 3 p.m. and met us there in my car WITH the car seat! Got my hair cut and made an appointment to get some hi-lights for next week.


New DT News
....................and I got my paperwork emailed to me from my new Manufacturer DT. I need to have it notarized and send it back, then I'll officially be a part of the Moments Defined Design Team! Looking forward to working with them in 2006!

That's it and I gotta split!

Peace out - CP

2 Days 'till Christmas!


Where has the time gone? It was just Halloween wasn’t it? Dang, it blew past me. I just finished wrapping gifts yesterday. I got David to help me out or else I think I might have had to stay up until the weee hours of the night! It was his first time wrapping ever (according to him). He swore up and down he didn't know how to wrap gifts. Dang liar. He did such an awesome job that he ended up wrapping all of them. I put them in boxes, bags and filled out tags and tied bows. All 43 presents wrapped and over flowing in my living room. I should take a picture of them. Looks like Hallmark threw up in my living room! Ha!

We finished about 11 p.m. and I squeezed in an hour and produced one layout. It's a picture from back in September when I went to that Mariachi Concert in Modesto. There were these cute little Mariachi sombreros in the flower arrangements that we tore of and promptly put on our heads. Good times.

This is some really cool Imagination Project Paper.......real funky and great mix of colors!

It's Thursday and I'm at work. Drinking my White Chocolate Crème Brule.. YUM-O!..............and I’m absolutely doing nothing. It's so dead at work. It pains me to be here. I knew everyone would be gone so I brought some supplies and busted out one cool Christmas layout using more Imagination Project paper. I love the way it turned out.........will it post later tonight.

Fa la la la la.........la la la la.

cp out!

Things I’m Diggin’ at this Moment

My 2 new pair of rhinestone bling hoops….got one pair in iridescent stones and another with layered diamond and iridescent ……..will sport them during Xmas and New Years…….fo sho!

My new New York and Co. bling encrusted watch. Got one for my SIL for XMAS and one for me too! (No worries about her knowing, she doesn’t do “internet!”)

Jalapeno and Artichoke dip……….served warm with garlic baked pita chips………..to die for! Sampled it at Costco and I had to buy it! YUM!

Listening to Christmas CD’s………..I’m loving Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Clay Aiken and the diva………..Mariah Carey. The Chrismas Song by Nat King Cole is my ultimate favorite song during the holidays. Love it!

Bath and Body Works……..I absolutely love their White Barn Candle Co. Wallflowers Home fragrance plug in. I have Cucumber Mellon, it smells divine and lasts up to 8 weeks! Love that!

White Chocolate Crème Brule Coffee…….The Coffee Truck comes 2 times per week to my office and this is what I get every time. Delicious!

Christmas Light Decorations EVERYWHERE!.........I just love this time of year. It’s even better now to experience with Jaden. Love to see his eyes light up when we drive by a Grizwald inspired house. Jaden shouts from his car seat……Lights!,Yook it’s Tanta!, Nowmen! Ponge Bob!..........and my favorite “I seen it Mamma!”

Just warms my heart! J

We are planning to go to Christmas in the Park in San Jose this evening. It’s a huge block that is decorated and surrounded by dancing animated Christmas characters, a forrest of decorated trees, faux snow and a myriad of twinkling lights……just tons of fun and I know Jaden will enjoy it so much! I can’t wait!

And I may have some exiting personal news………….but I need to go to the drugstore to find out! Keep ya’s posted!

My Handsome Boy......

Just a random photo I came across today. I can't believe that I haven't used it on a page yet. This little jem is from this past summer. We took a drive to Monterey and I took the photo of my handsom little boy on the pier at the wharf.

some jokes.......blond ones! HA!

No offense to any blonds out there.....these are just for fun!

Blonde LOGIC
Two blondes living in Oklahoma were sitting on a bench talking....... andone blonde says to the other, "Which do you think is farther away...Floridaor the moon?"The other blonde turns and says "Helloooooooooo, can you seeFlorida...?????"

CAR TROUBLE
A blonde pushes her BMW into a gas station. She tells the mechanic it died.After he works on it for a few minutes, it is idling smoothly.She says, "What's the story?"He replies, "Just crap in the carburetor"She asks, "How often do I have to do that?"

SPEEDING TICKET
A police officer stops a blonde for speeding and asks her very nicely if hecould see her license.She replied in a huff, "I wish you guys would get your act together. Justyesterday you take away my license and then today you expect me to show itto you!"

RIVER WALK
There's this blonde out for a walk. She comes to a river and sees anotherblonde on the opposite bank. "Yoo-hoo!" she shouts, "How can I get to theother side?"The second blonde looks up the river then down the river and shouts back,"You ARE on the other side."

AT THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE
A gorgeous young redhead goes into the doctor's office and said that herbody hurt wherever she touched it."Impossible!" says the doctor. "Show me."The redhead took her finger, pushed on her left breast and screamed, thenshe pushed her elbow and screamed even more. She pushed her knee andscreamed; likewise she pushed her ankle and screamed. Everywhere she touchedmade her scream.The doctor said, "You're not really a redhead, are you?"Well, no" she said, "I'm actually a blonde.""I thought so," the doctor said. "Your finger is broken."

that kills me........your finger is broken. HA ahahhahh!

My Little Cupcake


A layout for Leaving-Memories........they have a fab December Kit that features the colorful and fun KI Memories!

Lovin' this one I did for Jaden's 2nd Birthday. :)

Got a cool cupcake tree from Michael's by Wilton to display the cupcakes on. It somehow made the cupcakes look just a bit Yummier.......yummier? Is that a word? Well it should be! I guess more Yummy would be the correct way to say that, but I'm not in school anymore so who cares! :)
