Four Cheers For Four Years!

Well tomorrow marks the day of Jeff and I being officially together:) Happy four year anniversary sweetie pie! I love our relationship. He's my best friend and my boyfriend.

"looks like we've made it, look how far we've come my baby, might have took the long way, we knew we'd get there some day. They said "I bet they'll never make it" but just look at whats going on. We're still together still going strong. You're still the one" 

when we first met (him 17 me 15) we decided
to have a paint fight at a park near by.

His prom :) would have been 2009

He took me horse back riding as one of our first
dates. This is what started it all!! He had no idea
he set him self up for a horse obsessed gf.

When I died my hair he insisted on us taking new photos
together.

Updates!

After lots of sleep, and too much partying, I can truly say it was a great past few days! Sunday was a huge party at my boyfriends friends house. It was a kegger/pool party/ Canada day party/ birthday party. It was great for him to see all of his old high school buddys, and I enjoyed seeing them to. He has a great bunch of loyal and honest friends. Then on Monday which was Canada day/ his birthday we started with brunch at his moms house, had some amazing homemade waffles. It so much better then those toaster ones! His mom is an incredible woman and I love getting to go see his family so I enjoyed that. He opened gifts and such, then we headed off to his dads house for a dinner. His dads sister, his aunt, was there and she is just awesome! So were making plans to go get pedicures, go to the drive in, camping, that sorta thing. Its great because I have an amazing immediate family, I love them to death! But I don't have much of an extended family. So I kinda take him :P Anyways they made beer chicken and made me a veggie burger! Then we went to fire works and were swarmed by june bugs. It was so gross. Over all was a good day though because Jeff had fun. I love him so much. Then today I went to the hospital to meet up with the surgen and he gave me the all clear to go riding! wooohooo!


1 more day until I'm back in the saddle

Paint fight!

I keep posting photos of cards that I've made and today I decided I'd show some of my scrapbook pages as well. Starting with one of my first, and one of my favorites. It's fairly simple but I like that because it brings out the picture more. I started with a plain white 12x12 piece of paper because I couldn't find a background paper to compliment my photo. The photo is of my boyfriend and I on one of our first dates. Both of us in high school with little money we grabbed some friends and went to the dollar store to buy paint and water guns. We went to a park near a river so we watered down the paint and chased each other around. It was so much fun! Anyways I just splattered tattered angels mist all over the page and found some bright colourful papers. I ran some kraft card stock through the krimper and tore it to make an accent. I did faux stitching around the photo and wrote a little caption. I then just layered some flowers and tied a bow with some twine. :) simple and easy but a big accomplishment for me! Thanks for checking it out! 

four year anniversary!

Well I am just awful at making cards for things I know that I need to make, so really I should be making my dear boyfriend a birthday card because he turns 21 on Canada Day! Instead I made one for our four year anniversary which will be on August 10th! This is just another simple card, nothing fancy but he will love it. :) Please pardon my horrid lighting, my camera just wouldn't work! 

 I used the squirrel on the create-a-critter cartridge cut at 3 inches. I glossy accented the eyes and nose ( finally got some control! Instead of covering everything with it) I cut out "4 years" with jubilee and added that. This is a regular A2 sized card.

On the inside I matted the card and added the sentiment from create-a-critter that says "nuts about u" Jeff knows I love corny, punny things and I'm sure he will shake his head while I laugh but I know he will appreciate the card.

Jeff and I at his dads wedding. I will post more pictures of us and our story closer to the date :) 

Thanks for reading!
