Hello my name is Audra and I am a

NERD!!! Yes you heard it straight from my mouth, I am a nerd. I am a video game junkie and I used to play quite a bit.. for instance, DH and I used to play Everquest.. then we got Everquest 2. We used to play for hours on end, up until the wee hours of the night. And yes I gained weight because all I did was sit behind a computer and play games. Then after Ellie my addiction turned to digital scrapping... which I love. So now I barely play games anymore. I did start to play Kingdom Hearts 2 on my playstation 2, but that's only every now and then. So why am I telling you this.... because as of tonight, Jeff and I are now playing World of Warcraft!!! Like I have the time right??? I'm actually waiting for the thing to install as I sit here and type. I have heard that this one is easier to play for just a little bit and log off, so you aren't stuck playing for hours. hmmmm.... we'll see about that. So if you notice I'm not around, then I might have been sucked into gamer's world again!! LOL

On a brighter note look what I made:

Here is the mini kit I did to give away for the photo inspiration prize:

And then I gave this one to Mish to give away for her Trippy Tuesday Chat Challenge. I have the bigger kit, so I gave her parts of it to make it mini :)


And with that I"m off to play my game!!!

Girls weekend!

So I got back this afternoon from a night in Flagstaff with some good friends of mine. We had so much fun and it was great to just get away for a night. We didn't do too much in Flagstaff, just shop and went out to eat and then drank a bunch of wine and talked. It was like a grown up slumber party!! Lots of talking and laughing. A much needed break for all of us. Jeff stayed home with Ellie and this was his first time solo with her overnight. He did a great job!! :)

Today we went swimming in our pool and it's finally nice enough to really enjoy. Ellie was scared again at first, but then started splashing in the water and all was good.

Tomorrow is my last day in Wickenburg until August. YEAH!!!!!!!!! I will have Mondays and Fridays off for the whole summer and I'm so excited. I have alot planned... and yes it includes scrapbooking and designing.

I got a page done tonight, here it is:

Oh My Grey's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy cow!! I just finished watching Grey's Anatomy's series finale and I'm in shock!! I won't ruin it for those of you who haven't seen it yet, but oh my! How long till it's back on again??

As for my Mojo... I found it again. I decided not to really overthink my LOs and here's what I've come up with:

(credits: Papers/elements from the Amaze Kit by Kimberly Giarrusso of the Digichick)

How sweet is that?? In fact I'm pretty sure this could be one of my favorite LOs now. I printed it and then framed it for my mother for Mother's day. She loved it!!

I've been tagged by Gina!!

Five things in my fridge: watermelon, milk (Ellie started drinking whole milk), left over pizza, salsa, & yogurt

Five things in my car: Ellie's toys, Ellie's carseat, my coffee cup, cds, & an itrip adapter

Five things in your bag: wallet, lipstick, lip liner, papers with notes on them (to do stuff), and my ww book (not sure why I have it still?!)

Five things on my DVR or video player: Grey's anatomy, Desperate Housewives, Little Einsteins, American Idol, & ashamed to say so but... Days of our Lives

Five things in my wardrobe: Old Navy T-shirts, capris in every color practically, too many shoes to count, belts & a ton of clothes that no longer fit.. keep them just in case!

And with that I"m off to bed!! Adios Amigas!!!!

Lull

So I feel like I'm in a complete Lull right now! I'm completely blocked on ideas for scrapping right now. Also, 2 design teams that I belong to have been disbanded. I'm completely bummed about this, but I also understand 100%. Both Tania and Amy have decided to stop designing for a bit to focus on family, life, etc... I will miss scrapping with their stuff because they are both so talented. So if you two are reading this, just know that I go kicking and screaming LOL.

I am behind one LO for scrapdish for April, not to mention May still. Laura has come out with some new frames for her team to play with :) Heather also just gave us a new kit too. And a Chick's life..... way behind!! So I need to find my Mojo soon. Please send me scrapbooking vibes!

On a bright note, Jeff suprised me with a new laptop for mother's day.. how stinkin sweet is that!! It's beautiful... as much as a laptop can be I suppose. It's an hp pavilion dv 1000. I love it!!

American Idol: Shocked and confused!!! How in the world did Chris get voted off. I admit I didn't vote because I didn't see it on Tuesday night.. Tivoed it until Wednesday. He looked so shocked! I really feel for the guy, but it's probably a blessing.. he'll probably get a better contract in the long run! And when his album comes out, I'll be in line to get it!

New shows!

So tonight I have been watching that new show called "Big Love". I'm addicted... like I need another show to watch. I barely have enough time to watch my current shows. LOL Seems like I've been watching quite a few new shows lately. "King of Cars" on A&E is like a bad accident, I just keep watching it, I can't stop! And Deal or No Deal... well that's just crazy, but again I can't stop watching it. And then there's "House" which is just an awesome show. I have watched it for a while now and somehow I stopped and then again this week I'm hooked.

I finished that kit I was working on and gave it away as a prize! Here's what it looked like when it was done!

Other than that, nothing too exciting. My house is full of gifts still that I haven't put away, the laundry has made a mountain in our bedroom and tomorrow I'm finally off. I have some serious catching up to do.

On a different note I did get my own website... Jeff helped me do it. I need to design it (in my spare time) and stuff but I'm pretty excited about it. It will be my own little space in the internet world LOL. It'll just be pics, blog, etc...I'll keep you all posted. On that note, I'm out of here!! Night!
