Mini vacay time

I am leaving this Friday to go spend the weekend in N.O.
We booked our hotel in the French Quarter. friday night it will just be O'Neil and I and the rest of the gang will be coming on Saturday and they are staying at the same hotel too. it is going to be great fun. I was wishing that Elizabeth and Mike could come too so Pope (mike) and Perfect (O'Neil) could experience the moocho fun E and I have at the good ole Cat's Meow. I just don't know if i can go their without her so I guess Pat O's will have to do. Saturday morning I plan on getting up and dragging my tail to Petunia's for breakfast. Sluuurrrrp!!

Ekkk! I can't wait to get away for a little bit to be able to stay out as late as I want...to be able to get up when i want...eat when i want....hell even suffer from a serious hangover without the kids by my bedside wanting to know when am i going to get up....they think if they are up the whole house should be up! Now that is just nerve ;)

I am hoping to have some good pics when i get back!

Here are a few layouts I did this past weekend and week!

AY YI YAH!! I will be repainting this room after my kitchen

OUCH! that is mighty bright..wooo weeeee!!! but she is happier than pig rolling around in shit with it. I guess that is all that counts and thank goodness i don't have to look at it all the time...

Sorry about the long post I am trying to cram in everything in one before I take an absence for the much needed R&R this weekend.

CAIO BABY

For the past few years, Cie had bubble gum pink and bright purple walls. This year, she FINALLY let me tone it down. It was cute for awhile, but then I wanted to run out screaming every time I went in there.
