Hannah Montana and Nate

Nate has gotten into this Hannah Montana craze. I am finding it sort of funny, BUT he says it is because he likes her "brother" and "Rico". I don't mind too much cause I sort of like the show too but what is going on with my 7 year old.

What about Phinneas and Ferb too. He "HAS" to stay up to watch it this week. This is almost making me a little crazy, but he has to have all of his "stuff" cleaned up, and be ready for bed before he watches it. I guess that is a good thing, since my living room has been clean when the kids go to bed for the last couple of nights and I have not had to do it myself. YAHOO!!

Did I use too many "Quotes" or what??? LOL.

Saving Box tops and Shaw's receipts --- Clutter or ???

I have been saving Shaw's receipts for a few months because they will donate 1 percent of the purchases* to a non profit organization. I also save the box tops for the schools so that they can get stuff for them. I know they(Box Tops) helped get things a few years ago.

Here in town the elementary school had a collection spot(for the Shaw's Receipts) for one of the sick kids in town, cannot remember if it was Acacia or Athena. I do not know if they still are but I have been saving the receipts anyway. I figure that every little bit helps.

Does anyone else do this? I am starting to feel like if I didn't it would help with my clutter.

New projects that i have completed recently

Here is a picture of a countdown calendar that I made for us to keep track of how many days left until Disney.


Here is a picture of a birthday card that I made for my sister. This was my first layout for a birthday card, a little different than my usual scrapbboking pages.

I have to say my cricut has been an awesome "gift". I have made so many pages for my scrapbook albums and now these 2 projects. It has been worth the $$ spent.

Things I would much rather do than housework...

I would much rather be playing with the kids, reading a book, playing on the computer, scrapbooking, gardening...oops wrong time of year, shall I go on...

I have a rather dirty/messy house this week and am so NOT in the mood to clean. I feel sort of guilty since Michael comes home from work to a messy house but this weather does not help. I have been doing the laundry at least but the rest of the house... you get the picture. I think not having the dog around to clean up after makes it all that much harder too, the dog hair used to drive me crazy.

We are leaving for Disney World in 16 days so hopefully between now and then it will get done. I really hate coming home to a dirty house. I should maybe go do some housework and make dinner but the kids are calling...
