This is Alex, my brother's, girlfriends, daughter! We all love her and enjoy her. (Alex is on fire most of the time.) Miss Alex spent last Wednesday with me. We played outside, had snacks, lunch, went on a walk, played on a swing set, went to greet Henry from the school bus, took a bath, and then went to dinner. We spent the entire day together and had so much fun. Alex is all of 4 years old, and going on 16! I'm having a garage sale this weekend and Miss Alex will be there selling orange juice. I look forward to seeing her grow up and hope that my brother will make this little girl his daughter. Her mom Tonya is always a joy to be with and a great mother, I'd love to have her as a sister in law too!

SCRUFFY!

Isn't this little guy the cutest thing ever! We've been dog sitting him since last Wednesday, his mom and dad went on vacation. His name is Scruffy and he has stolen our hearts! It's been nice to have a male dog around again. He weights about 5 lbs, but he thinks he weights about 500 lbs. A true terrier! Scruffy will be leaving us tonight, and we will be so sad. But, I know he will be so excited to see his mom and dad. Thanks for a great time Scruffy and you're always welcome in our home!!

CKC in STL!!

Well...I'm back from CKC in STL! I had a wonderful time, this is my favorite thing that I made. I met up with some MB-ers from CKMB and we shopped and cropped together! I just had a great time. I hope that anyone who is a scrapbooker gets the chance to go and take some classes.

Saying goodbye...

Well, as most of you can see from some of the pictures, we had three dogs, Willie-B, Bella, and Savannah. However, we had to put Willie-B to sleep a couple of weeks ago. (Willie-B had a failing heart, and enlarged liver.) And I just couldn't bring myself to download pictures or write about it. I guess I thought if I didn't write about it then it didn't happen! This is the last picture of the three of us, just a few days before he died. I had him before I married my husband, he was my sweet pea, my heart and soul. I will forever miss him and love him. I still cry and have to work at getting back to a normal life. I hope he is healthy, running, and playing in heaven!

OK I'm still trying to figure all this blogging stuff out. I wanted to show pictures of my craft room, but had trouble figuring out how to load just a few pictures at once. So this is the best I can do for now! Happy bunny day to all!!

The French doors to my craft room...

Well, it's my 2nd day of my own blog, so I thought I would show you my craft room. We just moved in last month to our new home and we love it. But the best part is my own personal space. THE CRAFT ROOM! I do share it with my hubby and step-son, when they're home and want to use the computer that is. So here are a few more pic's of my room....

Nikki's very first blog

OMG...i can't believe that i have my own space in cyberspace!!!
