Well, some of you have asked for pictures of my scrapbook room, so here they are. I have rearranged a couple of times now and did again just today to include a space for Ani. She is now getting her own supplies and it is time for her to have her own area. I am still in need of closet doors and trim work. We didn't worry with it this winter due to the bitter cold. I didn't want to make a mess cutting the work inside, so I decided we would live without it a little longer. So, here are the pictures. I really love my space, and I love that Ani shares it with me.

Supply wall
I have all my paper along this wall. Does the paper rack look familiar Amy? I love it, so worth the wait. My wood shelves are awesome and special. It was originally a curio that belong to my Mom. The doors had been damaged for years and didn't open properly, so I removed them, cleaned it up and now it is used and more appreciated than it has been in years. I hope she would have approved.
Ani's space
I had to make room for Ani. She has to work with me now. It is easier for her to have her own table AND supplies.
computer zone
I have my computer, printer and cricut all here and easy to work on. The next thing I want is a the Cricut design studio! I can't wait.
My table
My table was a great deal at a furniture store. It had a scratch on it so I got it for $100!!! AWESOME. It is counter height which I love. I can easily sit or stand to work on my pages.
The hunt
It wasn't terribly cold outside, but we went ahead and hunted eggs down stairs. They had fun and lucky for us - found all the eggs!
Coloring eggs
Time again to color eggs. This was the night we got back from CoCo Keys. They were a little tired. But the eggs were all colored and ready for the bunny!
CoCo Key
So no Key Largo, but the indoor water park CoCo Key is suppose to have a Key's feeling. We spent the night in the hotel connected to the park and let the kids play. We had a lot of fun and WORE the kids out. when we got home the kids slept for 12 hours straight.
Colddddd
I wanted a cute picture. I got this one. She was just too cold to stand still for very long. O.k. go run get back on the slide!
Down together
Another slide and 1,2, t. h r. ...e. e. .. It was really cold. These two were really freezing. Not to mention Virgel and I!
Protective
Ani is so protective of Ruston. She watches over him so closely and makes sure no one gets in his way or hurts him. She gets so upset if he gets hurts. I love how close they are. They are really lost without each other.
SLEEP OVER!
Yep. Ani wanted a sleep over party. So three of her friends stayed the night. What an adventure. Of, course Ruston was never far away. They had a great time. The basement was totally destroyed by morning, but they had a great time.
Happy Birthday, Ani
While we were singing Happy Birthday to Ani. She LOVES the attention. I am so proud of my little girl. She is growing up to be a good girl, smart, polite, and beautiful - inside and out. What more can I ask for.
The one to watch
No he may not look like much, but for us he is the one to watch. Ani came home a couple of week ago with a paper heart. It had I luv you written on it. This little boy was the author. Our only hope at this point is that Ani still considers Brad in Florida as her boyfriend, so she can't have any others! but - we are watch - closely!!!!
party time
The rock (or as Ruston calls it the volcano) was a big hit for the party. The kids wouldn't do anything else!
Air and Space Museum
When Jim and Alicia and Dakota came to visit they went to the Strategic Air and Space Museum that is about an hour away from the house. Ruston was a little sick and cranky, so he and I stayed home. They had a great time.
AGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!
A flight simulator. She jumped right in, buckled up and screamed. She enjoyed it, but screamed. Too funny.
buttons
Oh yeah, buttons to push. I am sure they wont mind! Dakota - don't touch! (this is Ani's cousin)
Apollo
The space and air museum had a lot of really cool stuff. I would like to point out that my beautiful daughter INSISTED on dressing herself. I fully recognized when she left the house that the clothes she was wearing did NOT match. But, I am only the mom. She wasn't about to listen to me! Did I mention she is only 6!
Making cupcakes
Aunt Alicia and Uncle Jim came to visit for the weekend and they made cupcakes. She bought Ani a kit to decorate them - so of course we had to make some. What Ani does, Ruston does!
Mine!
Ani also enjoyed the ball pit. Her hair had so much static in it. It was standing on end! The pit was about 2 feet deep. It was a lot of fun.
I'm flying
The giant ball pit was a big success. As you can see Ruston really enjoyed jumping into the pit of balls. NO FEAR!
One, two three
All three of us came down the slide together. It was a big slide and we had to climb all the way to the top of the play gym to get to it. This was one of a million and three trips down the slide!
No fear
Of course, Dad and Mom had to climb with the kids. You know those spaces are not really made for adults!
Lighting McQueen
He likes him a little - slippers, jammies, and juice cup; all Lightening McQueen. He is pretty cute, just look at that grin.
Sleepy Boy
Ruston was sooo sleepy. I tried to get him to go to bed and he said - NO. One minute later I turned around to find him laying on the floor - zonked out. At least he isn't stubborn!
