The TSR Rewards Kit

The ScrapRoom just has the neatest incentive...the TSR Rewards Kit!! Basically, if you become a member of The ScrapRoom and buy our Flavor's of the Month Kit all year, you get a FREE kit at the beginning of the New Year!! Holy Cow, right? Here is this year's kit...

Yum! I love that there is a definite boy-ish line and girly-girl line! And do you see the pack of American Crafts Thickers...LOVE THEM!! Here is a look at what I have created so far...

U, Dirt, and a Crate Equals FUN!

Muscle Man

What a fun kit, huh? I will be back soon to show off what I created with KI Memories Hot Date! Tootles!

So, I Started Exercising...

Yep, yep...I am on the New Year's Resolution bandwagon to exercise! I have been needing to for awhile, but have used the old adage, "I will wait until after the holidays." Well, I defied that adage this year and started on December 3oth...2 days before New Year's Day! Uh-huh. I can feel it, this year is going to be different. LOL!

I have never been one of those people who have significantly struggled with my weight, but I certainly yo-yo. And that is what I want to stop. I really want to find a balance, and be confident enough to know that I can stay there. So earlier this year, I started watching what I eat, and it worked! I dropped 15 pounds by counting my calories on the Iphone Lose It! App. It is super easy...really!


But to my demise, I plateaued and have not been able to lose a pound since! So here comes this !@#$%^&*() Jillian...I just LOATHE LOVE her!

Let me just say, because it needs to be said, she is kicking my BUTT! I am only on stinkin' Level 1, and last night, Day 5, was the first night I made it through the level without having to stop! WTH! I am, however, able to tell a difference in my waistline. That pudgy, marshmallow stuff I had hanging over my pants is starting to dwindle! Whoot! Whoot! But the pounds have yet to start dwindling...I am being patient though.

Well, just thought I would share. And I figure, the more people I tell, the less likely I am to ditch this effort to be healthy and exercise in 2012! Thanks for listening and I would love to hear what you are doing to stay healthy?

Happy Wednesday!

Happy New Year and January ScrapRoom Share!

Well, Christmas is over and there are no traces of it now in my home! Whoot! Whoot! I LOVE Christmas, believe me I do, but I am also super excited to see it go. It was a great one though. Full of family time, laughs, kisses and snuggles, and TONS of goodies! It was truly great! We also had a super fabulous New Years. We spent the day at my in-laws home...LOVE that! And we rang in the New Year surrounded by family. We went down the dirt road from our in-laws home and met up with TONS of cousins, aunts, and uncles...the kids had a BLAST!

Hope you had a great holiday...Happy New Year!!

I do have a few projects to share using the January ScrapRoom kit! It is a good one...like always! Take a look...

Every morning from now to Christmas, my kiddos will wake up to a little prize on the kitchen table. Here is day 1...

And here's the list of the goodies and sentiments for the 12 days of Christmas if you would like to give it a try!

11. Heart shape candy--To remember that we love you and you will always be in our heart!
12. Peppermint Candy Cane--Turn it upside down and now you should see a "J." This should remind you of the true meaning of Christmas and how much Jesus loves you!
