i'm missing...

Washington State...
WA weather...even the rain...
the change of weather too...

my friends...

but most especially...
my family...

can hardly wait for november to come around...
thanksgiving break will be with family...
yey-yah!
our baby will be over 4 months old by then...

i just really miss being there...
i miss our house...
living close to my sis and da fam...
living close to my parents and bro...
walking around the neighborhood...
being just 5-10 minutes away from target and wal-mart...
i have to travel over 30 minutes to get to one over here...sux...
lacey...
olympia downtown...
seattle...

feeling really home and family sick-o...
feeling real kweezy too...yuck-o
hope this morning sickness subsides after the 1st trimester...
because it sux being kweezy everyday...

one of these dayz we'll be back...
crossing my fingers...

but for now i'll try my best to enjoy my time here...
can hardly wait when my hubby comes back home...
i am really missing him too...
this deployment is different than the 1st one i went thru...
that's b/c i had family and friends nearby...
being in a different state and starting from scratch is hard...
but i'll get thru it with time...

i miss WA, my family and friends there...
i miss my hubby...
i miss the 4 of us together....

in due time, it will happen...
just had to put it down in writing since i have been meaning to...

things will get better...
with time.

scraplift + cards

this week's challenge on ScrapTiffany was to scraplift anything and anyone.
i had a hard time with this one b/c i couldn't choose who/what to scraplift.

baby jesse + the OG Jesse

well this past weekend was a pretty good one.
me & my baby boo watched the Last Airbender.
real good movie.
and i don't care what the critics say!
had lunch at McD's.
i only had the urge for 2 cheeseburgers.
she had a big mac!
headed to the mall and walked around.
got tired and went home.
rented clash of the titans and percy jackson and the olympians.
we loved them both.

sunday we chilled at home.
did one chore, cleaned the bathroom together.
had fried rice for lunch (cubes of spam and chopped fried egg, yumm-o!)
watched the lord of the rings marathon.
dinner was totino's pizza and tater tots, per baby boo's request.
watched the 2010 mtv vma's!
usher's performance was my fave!
you go lady ga ga, who won 3 awards!

today, i'm gonna do a dt assignment for this week's challenge.
gonna do a layout for a friend's friend and use this as my assignment.

wanna share a couple of things before i leave this...

yeaaaaah for today!!!!!

today is the day we fly out to washington.
gotta pick up my lil baby boo from school early in about a couple of hours.
then a 2-hr drive to the airport.
hang-out.
eat.
hang-out.
fly.
it's gonna be a long day.
i'll try to tweet our where-abouts.

well today is the full reveal for the part 2 ScrapTiffany Weekly Challenge.
this week's theme was:  "vintage"
i'm not usually a "vintagey" type of gal, so this was a bit of a true challenge.

but here's what i did....
i took this...a betty crocker plastic container minus the lid...

and created this...
(supplies:  Webster's Pages, Hambly, Jesse James & Co, Betty Crocker plastic container, ribbon from an AMM kit)

the buttons were actually created by my daughter from awhile back.
she has been wanting me to scrap it somehow.
this was the perfect project for it too, finally!
all she did was took some floss, inserted some buttons, and tied it up.
easy peasy!
thx baby boo!

so go check out ScrapTiffany today for all the wonderful scrappiness!

have a fun labor day weekend!

but it will be worth it.
we miss our families!

anywhooo...
