Well its Monday. The weekend FLEW by!
You may have noticed I didn’t post yesterday. I took the time I needed for the family, and between my anniversary and all that, I was busy. I needed a little break anyway.ย I want to thank you all for the amazing well wishes! We had a great day.
I got my hair done-cut/dyed and highlighted. So that was FUN! It did take 3 hours! Because it is long and all I had done, but it made me feel good about myself. Then we went to dinner at the Common Man. It was really nice. We are HUGE losers because here we have a sitter, but could not figure out anything else to do! We tried to go see BatMan but it would be hours before the next movie, not wanting to shop (totally not my idea), we just rented a movie and were home by 8! LOL! We did get to watch the movie in peace so that was great. It was just nice to relax and enjoy each-other’s company.
I made it through a weekend of temptation, avoiding the crash and burn or ruining my new “healthier” eatting. I haven’t had coffee in 5 days now!!! THAT was not planned. I just haven’t even felt I needed it. “I” am as shocked as YOU are right now!!
School starts in 2 sleeps! So we will see what happens then.
So the Wedding was Sunday, we actually left the house ON TIME, and arrived when planned, another miracle. I didn’t take nearly as many photos as I should have. That always happens. I had the video camera for my Aunt and Uncle, so wasn’t thinking about the camera. I was with the kids before the wedding, so I should have taken more photos. Oh well.
They did a FABULOUS job. We had NO rehearsal since we live so far away, so they just winged it. It was si funny, as the kids walked down the aisle, Each step they would stop, and Noah would say “Now!” then Amber would drop the petals! She wouldn’t drop them until he gave his OK each step. He always has to be the “boss”. It was really cute. Then he got bored, and was loudly saying “How many more minutes till this is over?” really loudly. Then came the pout, and he squatting down till it was done. OH BOY!
A fun part was the table center pieces. It was a live plant with a Beta Fish. Everyone got a ticket, and the winners would be called out. Noah REALLY wanted to win the fish (We did NOT want to wiun the fish! LOL!) But he WON!! He was jumping up and down, and so excited. It was so cute.
Here is a Smilebox of the wedding. For anyone interested.

Now onto the card for today. I have not had much time to create lately! (GASP!) Wellย I have but they are release stuff.
I did get this done for you though-A Fairytale Ending
You know I LOVE my Elzybells!!
When I saw the entire Fairytale collection I went nuts!! Having 2 girls who LOVE princess stuff, these are perfect. (OK even if I didn’t have girls I would need them! LOL!)
Now these are the original designs from the UK, so they are larger than the A Muse one’s if you are wondering. Elisabeth has a blog-check it out HEREย (if you didn’t already know!).
I wanted to use uncommon colors, so I went with this patterned paper I got at Target. It is sweet blush, poppy red, olive, and soft sky. Perfect! I will give this to Jay at some point for one of those “for no reason” times.
I stamped the castle in the bottom corner, then the sentiment over it. I like this card a lot. Its just so cute. The main layer was cut with my nestabilities so it has a embossed edge. No layer needed.
Well that is all for me this morning. I have much to do to prepare for back to school!!!
Hope you have a great week. I know I am looking forward to some MYTIME ๐
Thanks for reading.
Later!

Awe what great pictures! Your family is adorable! Love your card too – amazing as always! I can’t wait to see what you’re going to release soon too!
What a beautiful family you have. Your three children are just darling and it looks like everyone had a great time. Your smile box was wonderful.
Great smilebox of the Wedding. Is Noah following in his Mum’s footsteps with the colouring?
What a wonderful video. Your card is just perfect. Glad everyone had a great time.
Two things: First, Amber looks JUST like your mom and second, her husband is H-O-T!!! *giggle*
Seriously, the card is way cute! I have two girls, too, so I guess that means I need to buy this set…..(AKA Stamper’s Rationalization)
holy cow, I see where you get your beautiful looks from. Your mom is gorgeus! You have a lovely family and the kids looked fantastic!!! Glad you had a great day with your family
Thanks for sharing your family pictures with us. You will look back in several years and wonder where the days went. You have a beautiful family…love them up, they group up so fast!
P.S. I just love your blog
Aww… thanks for ‘inviting’ me to the wedding! I absolutely loved seeing your girls all dressed up pretty as can be (and you too – loved the dress), and your boys looking so handsome. It looks like you all had a fabulous time. I laughed when Noah sat down – how funny!
Great pictures! You looked wonderful and you have a beautiful family!
Talk to you soon,
Hugs, Renee
Glad to hear you had a nice anniversary and took a day for yourself! :o) I’ve added you to my Google reader, so I’ve been bad about popping over and commenting. The wedding photos are great – you and your mom look so much alike! Hope you have a great day!
Glad your weekend was nice. Love those photos. What a great family shot. Love the little princess and knight card. Super cute. Good luck with the first day of school. Try not to do that happy dance until after the bus is out of sight. ๐ -Molly B
Lauren, I don’t know that I ever commented before or not, but I check your blog daily and LOVE it!!! Thanks for sharing all of your inspiration with us and your wonderful family. It brought tears to my eyes as I watched the wedding slide show! Have a blessed day Nancy
Very cute card & wonderful pics of your beautiful family – your son was very funny, very typical male behavior! And, your anniversary comments were so special – what a terrific couple you guys are, happy belated anniversary.
Lauren,
Loved the photos. Your children are adorable. You have a nice looking family. And, your mother is beautiful.
Lori
Absolutely gorgeous – I had a lump in my throat!! – that little guy is going to be such a heartbreaker!! Weren’t the girls like wee fairies? two pretty miss’s.
Lauren, The Photobox of your babies are precious. Alexa look so happy. Your mother is a very beautiful woman and I can see where you get your beauty.’
Happy belated anniversary, saw the pics of your and Jason’s wedding. Good for you that your all spoiled yourselves 10 years ago. I think more couple should do that and then have a small family reception afterwards. You were a beautiful bride. May the Lord continue to bless you and Jason for another wonder 10 years..oh shucks lets make that 50!
Oh Lauren……….Thank you so much for sharing your pictures with us. All 4 of your kids ๐ (sorry Jason couldn’t resist after that one pic) did a great job…and I just loved Alexa’s smiles.
Awesome photos from the wedding, everyone looks beautiful / handsome!! Looks like a great time!
Your card is also beautiful! TFS!
THanks for sharing another piece of you! IT is nice to put faces to the names we read so often about. You have a beautiful family! (oh and Jason must be related to my DH- he is always doing something in pics too!)
Diane

Fabulous slide show!! You have such a beautiful family, Lauren!! Your card is very adorable also!!
Great photos Lauren! Your kids are just so adorable…all 4 of them. lol You look so much like your mom! I know it’s been said before, but enjoy those little ones, before you know it they will be grown and on their own. Big Hugs to You!
this is totally awesome.
Lauren…the pictures are so pretty. Your family looks so sweet. Even the crazy faces your hubby was making. ๐
Hang onto those sweet ones as long as you can….they DO grow up too fast. *tear*
I want that dress! On the awesome princess card. Enjoyed your wedding smilebox too. What sweethearts you all are.
Such a darling card, so love the sparkle on her dress, and awesome coloring.
Really enjoyed the video too, you have a lovely family!
What a reall sweet card!! ๐
I remember a time when my husband NEVER actually smiled for pictures. But finally after 8 years of marriage or so (currently 11) I get smiles most of the time! I have to admit I miss the funny face days.
