for all the sparkly goodness! Eclipse is set to hit the big screen in 11 days!! Let the countdown begin. The fangirl in me is coming out, so watch out people. I'm thisclose to going out and buying a full on Eclipse Midnight Showing outfit. Full on team edward Shirt, body glitter, bella jacket, i love forks messenger bag, Volturi makeup and my Shadesward doll. Wait, that was lastyear. ok not really, but shadesward will be coming again like he did for New Moon. he kicked it in my purse for the most part but did come out for some paparazzi pics. i did craft out on my hat bigtime, though. its all good. It might come out again for eclipse, that is if I can actually find it. I already have my tickets to Eclipse. My wolfie loving friend Shelby decided not to go this year so I'm bringing in my other fellow twihards, Corina and Stacey (holla 9M and Beyond!). Tons of people from work are going so I'm sure to meet up with them too. We are also giving my Twilight meets Scrapooking blog...

It's May already? Where has the time gone? We are almost halfway through Twenty10! I've been playing with paper and glue lately and recently came up with this layout featuring the new Spring Tags from Shabby Shic Crafts! Loving the awesome Springtime colors and cute designs Veronica and Albert have come up with this time around. This silly little picture of me and my daughter was taken from one of those token taking machines that take your picture and the computer "draws" it out on paper. You know the the ones they have at Chuck E. Cheese type of places? Of all the pictures I have, this has got to be one of my favorite ones I have of me and my baby girl when she was about one and a half. A little closer. loving the cluster above the picture. To celebrate NSD, Shabby Shic Crafts and the Design Team Members are hosting a fun Blog Hop and giveaway! Leave a comment for a chance to win a package of 30 fantastic Tags from Shabby Shic! Hop on over to each designers blog for ...

Earlier this month 65 of my family members got together and went on a Carnival Cruise to Mexico! We had an awesome time! We boarded the ship at Port of Long Beach, sailed to Catalina and Ensenada Mexico. We met up with lots of family, ate lots of food, danced and laughed tons. It was awesome! I highly reccommend it! We definitely want to go again, this time for longer than 4 days. My Mom really enjoyed it and hopefully we can either go to the Mexican Riviera or the Alaskan Cruise! Here are some Pictures from our Trip! there is a gagillion more pictures but as you can see we had a blast!!! I'll be back with another post for National Scrapbooking Day and a Giveaway too!! Come back for your chance to win an fab prize! xoxo cp

It's been almost one month since my last post. I've been a mix of busy and lazy. You can mostly catch me on Facebook. I fb with the best of them. Can I say that Daylight Savings time kicked my ass on Sunday? I mean really, I had no idea 1 hour could frig up my day so much. I was straight paraniod that I was going to wake up late, so after getting to bed late (damn you, facebook and Words with Friends) I seriously woke up every hour on the F'ing hour. It was horrid. Then finally 5:15am rolls around, I mean 6:15am and I'm exausted. I hit the snooze and then leap out of bed and rush to be at work at 7:30am. I walk in and my coworker is like, WTF lady? You are not scheduled to be here until 4pm. FML. Royally. I felt like a complete fool. We laughed and then went to eat waffles with whipped cream and strawberries in the cafeteria. It made it all better. I love my girls at work, they can make fun of me but we have so much fun and if it were them I totes would have...

Hope you all had a wonderful Valentine Holiday full of love. Before heading out to work at 7:15 am, I left a nice little V day surprise for my two little sweet valentines and my hubby. Sliced oranges, heart shaped pb&j's, heart cookies, strawberry milk and little gifts. David called to thank me and Jaden was totally besides himself. He said that he couldn't even keep his star wars toys standing because he was so excited. Cute!! I was a happy camper when my husband arrived with a bouquet of roses and a hugetastic heart balloon and a pink bag had a gold box of See's chocolates (my fave) and a bottle of Bright Crystal perfume by Versace. Perfect timing because I sprayed my last bit of it on Sunday morning before work! He did great. i love him so. even without the gifts. i my heart still skips a beat for him. le sigh. Made pasta when I got home, baked a heart shaped pizza and pink frosting topped cupcakes. Just chilled with the fam. Very nice. Loved it. Earlier in the month...

Hope you are all having a fab week so far! Lots of rain coming down, try to keep dry! It has seriously been raining cats and dogs for days here in my part of California. Dudes. Power outages, even torando warnings. whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Great news to share today! I'm going to be working with Shabby Chic Crafs! Their fantastical tags are super cute and I cannot wait to intergrate them into my layouts and make special little creations with them! So honored to be a part of Veronica's first ever Design Team! Check out the Shabby Chic Crafts for the rest of the creative team! xoxox CP
