The Life of Mrs Magoo

What a week!!

I am so happy that it is Friday!! It's been a busy week with lots of stuff going on. I am teaching a Christmas Tag and gift wrapping ideas class tomorrow. And then later on in the evening I have a Christmas Card class. So, I have been busy cutting and organizing paper and supplies all week.

Have been enjoying my Blogging for Scrapbooker's. I will have to play catch up this weekend. And I also signed up for a Handmade DIY Christmas being taught by KA and Wilna. I am super excited about it, looks like there will be lots of cool things to make and it's all stuff that you have at home. So, it's affordable. The class is not expensive either, check it out here. Let me know if you sign up.

So, I know I am a little late with the Halloween photos but I will leave you some photos of our cutie nieces in their Halloween costumes!!

Here's Niamh (Neve)

And Naomi...

Told you they were cuties!! Be back soon, with hopefully more photos and scrappy pages!! Have a good weekend!!

Happy November

Really? How can that be possible? I still remember when it was summer and being off, and enjoying the sun and hanging out with family and friends. Time goes by way too quick.

My weekend was good, busy but good. I tell you two days off is never enough. Halloween was good. We had our Halloween Party on Friday at school and I dressed as a flapper from the 20's. It was fun and I got to wear my fave wig too. I still need to upload the photos which I will do soon and I have some from the cutie pie nieces too. I will share.

We also dog sat, Caesar is always so much fun got a couple of photos of him too. He loves to lounge around when he comes over to visit. Whether it be on the couch or on the bed. some funny shot were taken of him doing just that.

Did anybody else sign up for Shimelle's Blogging for Scrapbooker's class? I signed up yesterday and am excited about it. It started today, still have some reading to do for it and have to add the blinkie to my blog as well. But it'll be a good class, her classes always are, I think. I have been wanting to blog more but sometimes I find it hard too. Whether it be 'cause there's not enough time in a day to do it or I have nothing to blog about so, I'm excited about the class. Should be good.

Hope you all had a good weekend, I'll be back with some photos!!

Happy Halloween

Just wanted to wish you all  a very happy and safe Halloween. Jared and I are going to a couple of parties tonight and we're going to go and see our nieces in their cute costumes too. Plus we have Caesar visiting this weekend too.

I'll be back with lots of photos!! Happy Halloween!!

My most fave photo ever

Two of my fave people. My sister Ness and baby Naomi. We had a good day together yesterday, lots of chatting, laughing, and having fun. It was a good day. I took lots of photos but, this one is my fave.

Have a fabulous weekend!!

It's Friday!!

And I have the day off. So awesome and happy to have been able to sleep in this morning. I am spending the afternoon with my sister and niece this afternoon. I'm excited to get some baby time. She's a cutie. But I thought I would share some photos from last Sunday when I met up with my sister, friend Sam and and baby Naomi at Starbucks. She's a cutie!!

She likes her giraffe, eh? And with Sam.

And with Mama.

And with auntie.

She's such a cutie. She totally looks my sister when she was little.

I hope you have a good Friday. My plans for the weekend will be hopefully some scrapping time scrapping this cutie photos!! And hanging out with my hubby, he's been studying tons. So proud of him. Cheers!!

Show and Tell

Hi!! I hope everyone had a good weekend. Mine was busy, I taught a Christmas Card class on Saturday afternoon, you can see what we made here. It went well. And yesterday, Sunday I spent some time with my sister, baby Naomi and my good friend Sam. Just had coffee at Starbucks and chatted. We ran into quite a few people too and my parents even showed up so, we got to all hang out together which was nice. But I wanted to share some scrappy pages from the last four months that I have made but I have not shared. My scrappy mojo has been here and there. It disappeared for a bit but here's what I made with when it was there.

These were made with the September kit from Studio Calico, Cotillion and the add on kit Foxtrot a mix of both. These are the latest srappy pages.

 

Don't you just love the cupcakes?YUM!!

 

And with my hubby, when we did the day trip to Victoria at the end of August!!

And these two pages are made with older SIS kits. Both are from my birthday!!

And these are made with Studio Calico kits too, August's Over the Rainbow. Super fun!!

With my cool hair!!

And with my Mama!!

And the last page is with Daddy and baby Naomi, used some of my stash!!

 

And that's all I have for today!! Thanks for stopping by and checking out my pages and lasting all the way til the end. I will be back with more photos, more stories and maybe a video. Happy Monday!!

nothing exciting...

That's why the lack of blogging. Nothing new and exciting in my part of the world. I wish there was more. Just busy with work and getting my Christmas Card classes ready. I have my first one next Saturday so, I've got start cutting paper this week. Also having a long weekend this weekend which I am super excited for. We have Thanksgiving here in Canada so, looking forward to a turkey and hopefully something Mexican from my Mom. Hope all is well with you all!! Be back soo with hopefully something exciting :)

Happy Sunday list

Hi All!! Sorry for the lack of blogging. Life has gotten busy with school and work. And I've been sick too. Have this awful cough that just won't go away. But, I thought I would do a quick little update of some of my faves today and this past week.

Just finished baking a batch of blueberry muffins. My Mom bought us some blueberries and I thought blueberry muffins would be perfect for our lunches this week. Might need to make some more.

I got my Studio Calico kit in the mail earlier this past week. And I got one of the extra kits too. It's my only scrapbooking supplies that I buy. Still trying to use up what I have already so a little taste of all the new stuff out there makes me happy. Hope to play with it today for a bit. So pretty!!

Jared and I got to babysit this little cutie on Friday night. We had so much fun!! Love that little face so much.

Also LOVE this photo of my Mom and I at the Country Fair last weekend. I had so much fun with her last weekend. We were on the hay ride.

And I just can't get enough of this show.  Glee! And the football game dance scene was the best. I've already watched it a couple of times. Go check it out here

That's it for today, I hope you have a good Sunday!!

balance (work+play)

How do you like my Math equation?! This is one equation that I am always having a hard time with especially right after school starts up again after the summer holidays. So, tell me what do you do and how do you do it? I need some suggestions.

Lucky

We had a good weekend, both Jared and I. Busy but good. Monday always seems to come too fast. We were lucky enough to go over to Joce and Gabe's  ( SIL and BIL) for dinner and Jared watched the Bears and Packers game too. The Bears lost :( But we both spent lots of time playing and laughing with this little girl...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yup, J and I are in love with this little girl. Some of the photos are little blurry but, their priceless. Still cannot believe that she will be one already at the end of the month she's having her birthday party this coming Saturday and Auntie is making cupcakes...YUM!! Have a good Monday and week!!
