June: 12 on the 12th!!

Boo-ya!

That's for all of you who have lost the bet that I would keep this up. I'll give you the hiccup in March - when I was oh, 2 months late completing the page.

But I have been taking the pictures!!

I'm so excited (especially now that I've done a half of a year already) to print these out! I have not printed a digital page before, so who knows how cheeseball it will turn out. But, it could be great!!

Much love, and enjoy the rest of your day!

Life is in the details,

Stace

the lifestyles of the...

rich and famous?

Do the rich & famous stay in their PJs all day, too?

.... chew on watermelon rinds?

.... give their baby boys hand-me-down pink pacifiers?

.... allow their children to run around naked as a jaybird?

.... um, more PJ all day photographs...

But, the rich & famous might just miss out on these little gems of spending time with their kids. That is a dog. Jane drew a dog. Oh, I'm sorry, "IT is a PUPPY". Yup. She's a genius.

Feel free to tell me how adorable my children are.

Thanks,

Mama Stace

12 on the 12th!!!

Yes, I am a little backlogged on producing these pages, but I HAVE been taking the pictures!

Without further ado....

May 12, 2011

Monumental enough to blog. finally.

That's right.

Super monumental.

I used my 100th coffee filter today!

You see, early last year I finally bought a coffee maker. You may remember reading about my excitement here? The excitement was short-lived, however. Short-lived excitement for coffee because I quickly found out I was pregnant! What?! NO more caffeine?!?

Say it ain't so!

Alas, I slowly tapered and quit the sauce.

*sigh*

I am still not completely up to par (aka "full-strength"). I still take it half-caf.

So, thank you coffee. Thank you for your silent support. Your encouragement to get up and get going. The flavor you add to my creamer.

I appreciate you, coffee. Thanks for coming back to me.

Muah,

Stacey

Hello there!

I'm baaack!!

I took all my pictures myself yesterday for the 12 on the 12th. In case you are just tuning in... the 12 on the 12th is an idea I saw somewhere (Probably on Cathy Zeilske's blog). It is taking pictures of your random life all day on the twelfth of each month. Then, you take 12 of those pictures and make a scrapbook page about them! This way, you have a little glimpse of your daily life to hand down through the ages.

I think that with my 20+ scrapbooks, my grandkids will have a little more of a glimpse ;)

And, furthermore, I really do have a page half done for March. I'm a-waiting on a couple pictures from an event the morning of the 12th that someone else took pictures of. It was cool and I don't want to miss out on them.

So without further ado...

Pretty cute, huh?

So, I have some other big news, too....

Our store is moving!!

9M is moving to a bigger (and hopefully better) location in OldTown Salinas! Our new address will be 242 South Main St. Marie & I got the keys last friday night, and are making our refurbishing/moving plans. More details to come!

So, although I cannot "talk" outloud (darn laryngitis)... I can scrapbook about my day and make you read it!

Much love,

Stacey

I didn't forget!

I swear I am posting a 12 on the 12th page....

soon...

Love,

Stacey

My lifeline

I am participating in a 15-week small group. We are studying the bible, a book, and each other. Tomorrow I will be presenting my life story - my "lifeline".

While this might intimidate some, I am a middle-child and rarely get intimidated. I long for attention and for people to want to know about me. I am the sucker that Dale Carnegie writes about Influencing.


I thought, since I am sure you totally care, that you might like to learn about me and my "lifeline" thus far....

1976 - 1st sister born

1977 - 2nd sister born

1979 - ME! born

Yours (since 1979),
Stacey
