I finally finished my layout for the Faith Sisters and ScrapDango challenge. I needed to pray on this and really know what resolutions I needed to make for myself. There are many but I am taking the one day at a time approach. I am also writing it down so it can be set in stone and shife myself into gear with this. The first step to accept then its to stand and then move forward to your goals. Thats what I will be doing in 2009. Here is what I did for the challenge Photo-A-Day Challenge- Its my my must have every morning before I start my day :)

Kids are back to school and the house is quiet...lol I do miss them and miss getting up late. eating breakfast in the tv room while watching a movie and snuggles through out the day :). I will be going back to work on Wednesday ( BLAH!!!!!!!) but I like the place so its good. Over at Scrapbook Doodle , Wescrap and Scrapdango they are doing a Photo-a-day challenge for 2009 so I am going to try to keep up with this( I am already 4 days behind..lol). It will be fun and great photos to take and scrap later on :) Here is my photo for today Yep the tree is still up...we are going to get the stuff packed away tomorrow after the kids get home from school.
