Life's too short!

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter and were able to get a bit of rest and relaxation.  We went to the North Coast to visit some great friends that we haven't been able to spend quality time with for ages.  What a blast!  We had so much fun, we are heading back in two and a half weeks to do it all over again.

I have been busy lately (not blogging, obviously), but creating.  I have got several things to share with you but today I will start with this page I did of my feet.  Yes, my feet!!! 

We went away at Christmas for two weeks.  The first family holiday we have had for approximately 4 years.  Whilst sitting on the beach watching the kids, I thought to myself, 'I need to take the time, more often, to feel the sand between my toes because life is too short'.  Hence, the title of the following page.  I am extremely happy with the way it has turned out and think I will start doing alot more day to day photos.  I want my kids to grown up knowing, not just my feelings about them, but my feelings in general.

 

.........and I love this little bird out of the Basic Grey paper range, Urban Prairie.  Oh, and those Thickers, just love those Thickers!!!!

 

Now, I want to show you another photo of the same page, but you have to pick the difference!

 

I have finally got my tattoo that I wanted for my 40th.  That was almost 2 years ago now! I am really happy with it and, no, I won't be getting any more.  My husband is ready to divorce me (so he says anyway) but I am sure he will get over it!  Not much he can do about it now anyway.  We had a deal......... I have never known him without a mustache and one day he said he was going to shave it off.  I begged him not to and this went of for months and months.  One day, we had a friend over and we were talking about it and Karen said, "Go on, I dare you to go and shave it off".  I told him that if he did (after all it is his body and his choice), I would get my tattoo once I found the right one.  Off he went and 10 minutes later.................No mustache!!!!!  Karen was mortified and felt really bad (wish I had the camera out to take the look on her face, it was priceless)  I was quite impressed as he looked even more handsome and about 10 years younger.  A deal is a deal, I say.  What do you think?  Here is a closer look.  It was only done three days ago so it looks a little sore (which it is but I wouldn't dare complain) and I apologize for the feral looking toes!

 

I had better go and think about feeding the natives!

Till next time, Happy scrapping.
