Scrap space and a couple cards

Here is my scrap space, it's in my bedroom, so space is limited. I did my own version of the clip it up, I used a decorative curtain rod and hung up my letters, rubons, etc..with paper clips. I thought of using Christmas ornament hangers, but got impatient. I will probably redo the whole thing if the ornament hangers work better. It's definitely not my "dream" scrap room, but when space is limited you have to work with what ya got!!

Here are a couple cards I made, I used the threading water punch that I won from Patter's blog
http://triplethescraps.blogspot.com. That was too cool to win and I'm hoping to play with this punch a lot. I really haven't done too much scrappin lately. I've kinda been a bit lazy.....but I've done some reorganizing and purging, so at least I feel like I'm accomplishing something!!

On too some non-related scrapbook news........My son made the varsity basketball team at his school in Vegas!!! Way too go Jordan!!! I was definitely more nervous than he was to find out if he made the team. I was hoping that he would have stayed here and gone to my old high school and played ball for the Panthers like I did, but he's in Vegas and making the team with that kind of competition is just plain AWESOME!!!! So, instead of being a Panther, he's a Wildcat!! That's close enough!! So, I'll be burnin up the interstate to watch him play ball....and super excited about it!
So, enough of this, I'm off to watch the most recent episode of True Blood.....one of my guilty pleasures

Me...20 years ago!

Ash decided to go as an 80's person...is there such a thing??? So, since I grew up in the 80's, basically she was going as ME 20 yrs ago! Man do I feel old. Really old. Anyway, she was decked out with blue eyeshadow, crimped hair, rainbow leg warmers and lots of bangles on her arm. I drew the line at her wearing thermal underwear with boxers over them...(yes, unfortunately I did wear that......and out in public, what an embarrassment to my mom-sorry mom!) So here are a few pics of her!! I think these pics were more scary than alot of the costumed trick or treaters that showed up at our door................
Decorating Halloween cookies..........yummy!!
No she's not grumpy... ;)
