The beginning

 A Day at the Beach
 Soccer Page since we both played high school soccer (on the left side are some of his accomplishments through out his high school soccer profession)
 And my most favorite, hiking on the Ortegas!!
A close up of the hikers list

I just thought I would share some of my very first projects with all of you since I have nothing new to post as of now.  These pictures are of some scrapbook pages I made a couple years ago for a scrapbook I made for Alex of our first years dating.  These are just my favorites.

Carrot Cupcakes

My boyfriend, Alex, started a new job; a job that I believe he will be very good at (which I will tell the story of why towards the end of my thoughts).  His new job title is a car salesman at Lake Chevrolet.  The other day he sold his very first car, I wanted to do something for him that day but because I've been so busy I didn't get the time until last night.... nothing big just a little reminder of how proud I was.  His favorite is carrot cake, but since I love making cupcakes so much more and no longer have a cake stand (long story lol) I made carrot cupcakes and a card to go with the cupcakes; just thought I would share. :)



   Just as promised I am going to share the story of why I think this is the perfect job for him...
We began dating in high school, and as a lot of you know our biggest fundraisers in high school was selling chocolates, which I despised so much! It would take me forever to sell one box, then Alex came along... Even if a person didn't like the chocolates we were selling Alex would somehow manage to convince them to buy one, don't ask me how, but he would and would sell a box so fast! I would always joke around about how he should get into the business of selling cars or sales in some sort; now look at him today and he loves it!

Testing, testing 1,2.....

 Don't cross your legs game
I am new to all of this, so bear with me.  This is officially my first blog!  My son's first birthday is coming up in 2 1/2 months, I have decided along with his birthday I was going to make a debut of all the crafts I can do and make everything by hand.  Since I do not want to spoil all my ideas by showing them on here before, I have decided to hold off and instead show my past projects; mainly started when I found out I was pregnant.  So much has happened in the past year, just thinking about it surprises me.  Crazy to think that last year I was planning a baby shower and exactly 5 days later gave birth to a son and now I am planning a birthday party for a boy that talks, crawls, and soon will be walking.
