Swagbucks and ramblings ....

If you are interested in saving some money by clicking websites and searching the net .. then you should check out Swagbucks. It's a no obligation required chance to earn swagbucks that you can then convert into gift cards once enough swagbucks have been accumulated. If you scroll down to the bottom of my blog you'll see the widget, and you can sign up from there :)





I hope all are doing well. Thank you for continuing to be a blog follower. I'm currently in a state of mind that unfortuantley crafting creativity has not been a priority. So the blog has been really slow. I hope to pick back up soon ... just need to focus on my Real Estate career ... luckily, I have been doing some graphic design work for fellow agents - which helps me going on the creative side of things ... but not too much with the wire, beads and crocheting. I have however been tooling around with some photography ... I'll post some images soon.




I was thinking of branching my etsy shop apart so I can include photography prints and images as a new shop ... any thoughts? Photography has always been a passion of mine, and my husband got me this awesome new lens for Christmas this past year ... a 55mm-250mm Canon with stabilizer! I love it!

the photos here were taken with my new lens :) .. just to share a few :)

Happy 1 Year Anniversary!!!



I know I haven't been posting alot lately .. I have been busy with my career change and just life in general - I hope to pick up again soon .. this post is on a more personal note ...




One year ago today was the best, happiest, most memorable day in my life!! I got married to my best friend, my true love, my inspiration. Today is my One Year Anniversary and I just wanted to say. "I love you Wayne, Happy Anniversary!" I can't wait to see all our creative goals play out for us in our lifetime. I want to grow old with you... these three songs are our life, our inspiration, US!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad
Carry you around when your arthritis is bad
Oh all I wanna do is grow old with you

I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches
Build you a fire if the furnace breaks
Oh it could be so nice, growing old with you

I'll miss you
Kiss you
Give you my coat when you are cold

Need you
Feed you
Even let ya hold the remote control

So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink
Put you to bed when you've had too much to drink
I could be the man who grows old with you
I wanna grow old with you

~Adam Sandler

I'm lucky to have met you - I think of that everyday day!

(Jason)
Do you hear me,
I’m talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I’m trying
(Colbie)
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
(Both)
I’m lucky I’m in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooohh, ooooh, oooh, oooh,
Oooh ooh ooh ooh
(Both)
They don’t know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I’ll wait for you I promise you, I will
(Both)
I’m lucky I’m in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we’re in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
(Jason)
And so I’m sailing through the sea
To an island where we’ll meet
You’ll hear the music fill the air
I’ll put a flower in your hair
(Colbie)
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you’re all I see
As the world keeps spinning round
You hold me right here right now
(Both)
I’m lucky I’m in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I’m lucky we’re in love every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

~ Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat

Our Wedding Song: Little Wonders by Rob Thomas

let it go,
let it roll right off your shoulder
don't you know
the hardest part is over
let it in,
let your clarity define you
in the end
we will only just remember how it feels

our lives are made
in these small hours
these little wonders,
these twists & turns of fate
time falls away,
but these small hours,
these small hours still remain

let it slide,
let your troubles fall behind you
let it shine
until you feel it all around you
and i don't mind
if it's me you need to turn to
we?ll get by,
it's the heart that really matters in the end

our lives are made
in these small hours
these little wonders,
these twists & turns of fate
time falls away,
but these small hours,
these small hours still remain

all of my regret
will wash away some how
but i can not forget
the way i feel right now

in these small hours
these little wonders
these twists & turns of fate
these twists & turns of fate
time falls away but these small hours
these small hours, still remain,
still remain
these little wonders
these twists & turns of fate
time falls away
but these small hours
these little wonders still remain



Thank you Wayne, for being my friend, my love, my inspiration. You are my life, my soul, my heart.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all our family and friends who did share this wonderful day with us a year ago. Putting it all in perspective, good thing it was last year and not this year - the weather down here is yucky this weekend! Yesterday was only a high of 49 and rainy! LOL I love you Wayne, forever and always!
