Last Challenge on TI Amazing race.

For the last challenges at TI -- we had to do the following for the Detour challenge:
MAILED OR PAILED
In MAILED you will create a mini album out of envelopes...the size and amount of pages is up to you - the only requirement for this one is that the mini albums theme is about you celebrating why you love being you, love being a girl, love being female...etc..

..in PAILED....you will create a mini round album that fits nicely in an altered PAIL....the size and amount of pages is up to you - and the same requirement for this one is that the theme is about you celebrating why you love being you, love being a girl, love being female...etc....

I decided to MAIL IT. Used some Glassine Envelopes and stitched them on the left side
to form a little mini album. Each page gives reasons why I love being a woman.
THen in the envelopes I typed up some poems about Women!



#1 I can grow little people in my body
#2 I have the ability to love and to love unconditionally.

#3 I can show emotion without fear.
#4 I have the ability to talk on the phone, make dinner, wash the floor,
and change a diaper all at the same time!!!

#5 I have a large selection of shoes to pick from.
#6 I have the choice to have a career or family
OR BOTH!

#7 I have the opportunity to be a mother, wife, sister
daughter, aunt, niece, granddaughter... all in one person.

Here's where I think I bombed.... I kept changing
my mind and everything I made didn't turn out
right! This was so frustrating!

Oh Well!

So I wasn't able to finish a layout a day this month. Since we are moving in a
week, that sort of took most of my time.
Here are a few other things I've worked on for the Month of Feb
Here's a photo of Lukas in his car seat. He's not too fond of that seat.. however now it tends to be a little more willing to ride.

Here I am being silly! Wearing my Valentine's sunglasses.


Here's Lukas playing in Grandma and Papa Folsom's front yard. (in November 06)
