For this challenge I chose a photo of my "adori"ble Son posing with one of his favorite things to play with...lol
He is constantly getting out Daddy's cones and when he isn't wearing them, he is setting up obstacle courses in the yard.

SO EXCITED.....
I stumbled across an "adorible" new photography blog that I am LOVING.
She is hosting a weekly photo challenge, and I am going to try to participate as often as I can to try to get a little more experience.
This weeks challenge is "ABANDONED"....Her instructions are as follows...."Remember to think outside the box a little. This could be anything from an abandoned building or car on the side of the road, to something that hasn't been used in a very long time. So get into your attic and garage, or wherever, and start snapping!"
I was having a little trouble with this one and ran out of time considering my Hubby went out of town and TOOK MY CAMERA WITH HIM ( can you believe that?) lol- So I had to CHEAT just a little bit and dig through my stash.
I came up with this picture that I took at the River of our favorite bar "Fox's". This picture was taken in the early morning as the sun had just come up and the bar is "ABANDONED". In just a few short hours this place is hoppin'....
I am sure anyone is welcome to join, but HURRY - this weeks deadline is Thursday when she will be posting the next challenge.
I can't wait to see what's next.

Scrap Pals 2010 Challenge - Week 1
The Scrap Pals have started their challenges for the New Year with a BANG.
Tee has come up with a FUN one this week.
Week One challenges us to create anything having to do with BIRTHDAYS.
We all love Birthdays right? And we all know people who HAVE Birthdays.
The challenge was to create birthday cards, birthday layouts, birthday gifts or any other birthday ideas you come up with. Each project is worth 3 points to a max of 5 projects. (total of 15 pts)
Bonus points: You can earn an extra 10 points if you make 5 projects using all the same paper line or design line if you do digital like I did.
I had SOOOO much fun doing this one and can't wait to actually PRINT these out and use them. I created my cards and things in Paint Shop Pro using the fabulous kit "What a Boy Needs" by Heather Roselli of the Sweet Shoppe.
So without further ado - here are my creations...
Won't these be DARLING for aliitle guys Birthday party?
I had so much fun with this and can't WAIT for next weeks challenge.
I hope you'll join us. Everyone is welcome.
