In memory of 9-11

Apologies are in order

I have deleted all the links on my blog for now.

I never knew that the scrapping world had TOU, and certain requirements that we must follow. I just knew I liked scrapping and thought why not share with other's that can't like myself.

Well I as do all newbie's have a lot to learn in the Digi scrap world. and There are requirements that need to be meet and rules that we all should be following. I want to make sure that I do just that. So all links are deleted until I can get the required permission's, give credit to the deserving designers, and find the links back to their site's.

Now I may not be able to track down all the kit's I used (or piece's of kits) Heck, I may not even remember where I got must of the stuff I have. But you can believe I won't make this mistake again.

I truly apologies to all of you that I have used a kit, ric rac, button, ribbon or template from without recognizing you and giving you credit, not following your tou, or linking back to your site.

I sincerely hope you will understand that it was lack of knowledge and not intentionally meant to hurt anyone, to steal the glory or credit or to hurt any feelings.

Thank you to Amy and Shell for stepping up and notifying me of my wrong doing, without the two of you, this could have gotten a lot worse. I appreciate you pointing this out to me and allowing me to correct the problem and the kindness in which you do it.

If you see your creations on any of my pages, please let me know so I can give you credit. Just post a comment saying that I used your awesome designs and what they are so I can credit that post with your requirements.

To everyone else, I hope you understand why I deleted all the QP's and are in agreement that I was wrong.

Hugs Grams

Being with you Rocks


I'm SORRY I have to remove this QP. I didn't follow the TOU it is completely my fault and an oversight. I Want to Thank Amy for sharing her awesome templates and a big apology for not following her TOU.

At least making this page brought me joy, This is a photo of my favorite cousin Trin and I . This page took me forever using a template by Amy Fenner and the papers from a great scrap designer at the polkadotplum. It didn't turn out how I envisioned it would. But it has special meaning to me.

So if you visit my blog to see what's new, please feel free to snag it and this time PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT!

Adore, love and cherish my grand kids


My three oldest grand kids

I don't have as many photo's of Aussie, Baby D and Sister as I do of the two younger grand kids. Even though they live in the same town and the same distance away as the younger two. It seems they are always busy with friends and activities with their parents.

These picture's where taking in July on my 20ish birthday ;-) lol. I couldn't adore, love or cherish anyone more then I do these kid's. They are all funny, sweet and adorable in their own unique way.

This QP was made using the template from: LGDesigns
The word art if from: Kristy
The paper and ric rac's are from Metro Retro kit by shell

If you snag the QP please leave a comment, a small jesture for snagging.
Thanks Grams

A new freebie


First let me thank Tracy at traceycaudlesdigiden.blogspot.com for this awesome template. I really didn't have to do much to it.

These are some more photo's from the Rock-A-Billy "prime is not a crime" vintage car show we attended over labor day week-end. This old car show is always a gang of fun, because the crowd and aptmosphere are a younger hip crowd and the cars are all done by the owners in their garage. These usually are not the high end $100,000 dollar car's that the "old Guy's" paid a shop to restore. Although you do see a few of them out there.

We have a 55 chevy wagon that we are doing a garage owner restore on, It won't be a primer national, but then it won't be an Old Guy's shop restore either. But one old guy does own it. Shhhh we just tell Pop that "OLD GUY'S RULES" and our motto is: Take a Kid to a car show

Thanks again Tracy for sharing this template.

Some things just don't seem fair


Em & I were first on seen today on our way home from work.
A young 20 y.o. man thought he could make a U-Turn on a very BUSY two lane street "Apple Valley Rd" with oncoming traffic only feet away from him. I'm sorry to say his distance judgement was off and he didn't make it.

He was hit by an unsupecting young mother "Jazmine" on her way to pick up her four year old son from pre-school, then her 3 older children. Jazmine was trapped in her mangled car for 1.5 hours as the apple valley fire dept used the jaws of life to completely cut her out of the wreckage. Jazmine was coherent and knew all the important answers to the questions we asked her. All she wanted was someone to help her get out of the mangled vehicle, she was pinned from her thighs down, with major cut's to her face and arms. I asked her if there was someone I could call to pick up her children and she was able to give me the name and phone numbers of her parents.

We called and they arrived quickly. Could you imagine seeing your child trapped in the wreckage of a vehicle with a life flight helicopter waiting in the background, as you stood by helpless? I did my best to comfort Jazmine and her parents and has able to pray with them. Her mother told me that Jazmine had recently moved to the high desert from Washington, so that they could help her as she continued her treatment for cancer. Wow somethings just don't seem right!

Please keep Jazmine and her family in prayer, as well as the young man that caused the accident, I'm sure he has a lot to deal with himself.

This is a reminder to us all, about just how serious we need to take our driving habits. I know it has made me stop and think!

"May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world."

Come back soon.

a quick hello from our vacation spot

Good morning from Ventura, ca. ahhhhh at my favorite beach for 4 days.
Day 1 was yesterday, we got into town mid afternoon, gabe build a rock castle on the breakwater, then we took him to the harbor for dinner.

Day two, I can barely get out of the bed omg I think my back is out!!! "AGAIN" it was hurting yesterday, but today I can't even roll let alone move ...

Looks l;ike I will have to teach pop how to give an injection, so I can do the things planned with gabe. Plus Melissa and Jadon are on there way as is my favorite cousin Trinity and her hubby.

Have a happy labor day.
