Scrapbooking + Love Labels for Sale

Well, it's been a busy week around here at Le Chateau Pebbles... on Sunday, John and I headed out for a few days of rest and relaxation out at the beach...the weather was sunny...and freezing cold and snowing...from inside the house it looked just like a warm summer day...until you stepped outside. Brr.

We had a little birthday dinner with my parents, drank some wine and ate half a cake, and then we just worked on some projects around the house and soaked in the peaceful atmosphere. It wasn't long enough of a trip, even though we extended it for one additional night, I think we were both sad to leave without going for another winter paddle.

Then we were home and for the past two days have been playing cram and catch up to get ready for today- My Birthday!!! Weeeeeee.... :)

Tonight we are having a few of our friends over for some drinks and snacks and laughs. So, naturally I had to reorganize the house, clean things up a bit. John painted our bathroom gray- twice. It's still a little too blue, but it'll do for now. I am working on finishing up a small to-do list and then will start figuring out if I am going to make crock-pot meatballs or weenies. :)

As I think I may have mentioned in an earlier post...I did some scrapbooking over the past few weeks...after I got my hands on some of the new Cosmo Cricket papers!! So cute...love, love, love... Anyway, fitting to my birthday, I made a page all about my gray hair: 

   

(I sewed some loose strands of gray thread on this page to drive home the point.)

and after that little bit of catharsis, I made this page about working with John:

 

(in actuality, I am more like his new boss...but pretend I didn't tell you that, k?)

and then I made this ooey gooey page of babiliciousness about Baby G:

 

SUPER FUN!! I love Scrapbooking!

Also, I finally spent a few days at the canal working on uploading the Love Labels for you, so if you missed out on them in February, you can buy them here now. 

   

It's always a working goal to make and sell more digital stuff, but then that thing called "time management" comes into play, and that's why you only see, like, one thing from me in 6 months. I do have ideas, I want to make them happen, so I spent some time yesterday making a chart for the week- to designate which days I do what...like "Monday & Tuesday- work on Madrona Paintworks files and marketing...Thursday- make and post hoop.dee.do's...etc."  Also included in my plan is to try to set aside one day for blogging for the whole week...let's see how I do with that!! hahaha!!!

I am anything if not honest.

So, I hope you have a wonderful weekend, I will see you here again shortly...hopefully not too hungover and tired from my wild night of celebration. I am pretty sure I might have a Dorito hangover...John just brought home "Hot Wing and Blue Cheese" combo flavor Doritos...and DAMN!! They are gooooooooood...

(Don't Forget about the big 100th hoop.dee.do giveaway!! The drawing is open until Monday night...good luck!)

Cheers!
