...rest in peace James Khor...

i never met james in real life but we were friends for over a year on facebook... we met while playing on fluff friends and had a lot of fun on the message boards...sadly, james passed away november 1st ~ he was out with his friends swimming when they were swept away by water - three young people died that day. it really makes you stop and appreciate the people you have with you in your life...you just never know when they might be taken away from you...
james, i will make sure to feed wayne lots of lollipops for you...rest in peace my friend (hugs) ♥



my favourite photo of james - i told him i thought he would break out doing the melbourne shuffle at any time in this photo :)

back to life...back to reality!

Dan at Bay Creek Golf Course at Cape Charles - beautiful course


We are home from vacation - it was a wonderful getaway, Virginia is a beautiful place. This time of year, the trees were just starting to change colours. Unfortunately, my leg was still not fully extending so I was hobbling around the best I can! The weather was amazing, we were in shorts and a tshirt -- much different than the weather here back home in Canada! We definitely plan to go back to Virginia ~ hoping to go back in 2011.




at the golf course...it was like "hobble hobble - hit ball - hobble hobble"



waiting to take the ferry from Portsmouth to Norfolk Virginia





making kissy faces in the sand ♥

My swapping friend Tina and I are going to take turns wrecking each others journals...we will send our journals back and forth to each other adding in four entries at a time - it is gonna be an awesome masterpiece when we are each done! lol

Here is my intro page to the journal and also two more ATC cards I whipped up last night using an old greeting card!

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Canadians! We had dinner tonight at Dan's moms house and tomorrow we are having Thanksgiving dinner #2 at my parents house....yum! Other than dinner, it has been a pretty lazy day for me - I love lazy Sunday's! I created a few swap items this afternoon and I am excited to start a new "Wreck This Journal" project with Tina. We are going to take turns wrecking each others journals! You can read more about wrecking your journal here http://www.wreckthisjournal.com/
Here are the items I made this afternoon....a "colour choice" ATC swap - of course I chose pink!! lol...and I made some nice and neat friendship books for another swap and lastly, I made this cute little altered small memo book ♥
