Week 3 Review and some fun stuff

So week 3 is complete and I am so over the A-Z challenge LOL. It’s difficult to come up with things to take pictures of especially when you are limited to the indoors. This project is definitely making me work. As i said before, practice makes perfect and I'm far from it. Here is the double page, single page and pictures for week 3.

Thrift store Finds and a New Me?!

The new yr. is here and I have not made any resolutions. I’m ok with that. I’ve been busy with my blog, Reading tutorials on Photoshop, taking pictures for the new 365project Nomee and I have started and well being a full time mommy and worker. I have started the gym. Not so much because I want to loose the weight, but because I went to the doctor and it turns out all those yummy sweets, fried foods and snacks I love so much have managed to kick me in the behind. I’ve gained about 40lbs in about 2yrs and those extra pounds have my blood pressure rising. The doc said I have to take it easy and yes exercise. Just thinking about it made me scared but I’ve been at it for almost a month now.

I’ve lost about 3lbs so far, it’s not much but I can feel the difference. Zipping up my jacket without having to suck in my gut is awesome LOL. Making changes in the way I eat and looking at food differently isn’t as hard as I initially thought it would be and now that I have a routine of hitting the gym Mon-Friday I’m really enjoying myself. I especially love the steam room and showers. I will keep motivated and make no excuses.

Ok enough of the gym stuff. I stoped at the thrift store last week and scored on some major cute things. Check it out.

I can't wait to use those Leopard print keds. Love it! The workout gear yes already in use. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Who doesn't like vintage serving plates. Yellow and turquoise vintage dinner ware. Black cups/mugs? not sure what they are but so cute. The best part is that everything was 1/2 off that day so I spent $36.00 on everything. Yay for me.
 
Last week was also pretty amazing because it was my brother Saul's 40th B-day. My sister in law had a party for him and we had a good time. Food was great and when it came time for presents my other brother Danny made every one's gift look thoughtless. This is what he gave him and when he read it aloud he had almost everyone crying.
 

Along with this letter was a personalized beer mug with the Chicago Bears on it. You gotta love it. I'll be back a little later with some pictures of the party, scrap pages and more.

What's on my mind and a piece of Sammy

Project 365 week 2

Finally Done! Sunday was chaos at my place. I did some major cleaning and finally got rid of everything Christmaseeek. Taking down my tree was the hardest thing I did. The pretty glitter ornaments that once made my tree so pretty was now all over the place. Aside from cleaning Sunday dinner and usual grocery shopping I sat my butt down and posted the pictures on the forum. By 1:00am I finished my double page for week 2. I have to say this project is challenging. I like snapping pictures but with the twins, day job and housework I wish father time can spare a few more hours for me. I seriously need to clone myself.


Project 365 Week 2 9th-15th

 Sun Jan. 9th I- Italian Ice and Ice pops. I posted this picture on face book and some of the comments i read got me thinking that maybe I should have just used the red ice pop LOL

 Monday Jan 10th J-Jeans. I went into my closet and took out the stash of old jeans. These babies are way to small for me but now that I'm working out I hope i will squeeze back into them very soon.

 Tuesday Jan 11th K-Karate Kids. The twins helped me out with this one. They showed me the best moves they had. I managed to snap a picture before they both fell on the floor.

 Wednesday Jan 12th L- Lipstick, Lip gloss and Lip liner. I don't know of any girl that doesn't own at least one of these.

 Thursday Jan 13th M- Mouse, Magazine, Mod podge and Messy Desk. At first I was just taking pictures of my mouse but I turned my head and bang all the M's where staring at me :) so I just shifted the camera and took the picture.

 Friday Jan 14th N- It just so happened that Fridays challenge was the same day my BFF Nancy, Christina and I hung out. We had dinner and drinks to celebrate Nancy's 27th B-day. Horray for Nancy who turned a fresh 27 this yr.

 Saturday Jan 15th O- Owl. I couldn't think of anything to capture that started with the letter O. I took a couple pictures outside my window but I didn't think they where interesting enough. I remembered I had this pretty Owl tea candle holder and yes I took the picture. Isn't it cute?

Here is my Week 2 double page.

Recap on my 2010 Vacation's

Time to put away the Christmas decorations and bring out the Valentine hearts! I can’t believe how fast this yr. went by. 2010 was an amazing yr. for me. I went to Vegas for my sisters 36th b-day and to Puerto Vallarta with the twins and family. Both places where fun. Here are some of my favorite shots of both vacations.

Puerto Vallarta 2010 Recap

I'll be back later tonight with updates on the 365 project, scrap pages and more.
