Happiness = -43 lbs.....

I went to American Eagle yesterday. I have been shopping at AE since high school, which would be 10 years now.

I went into the dressing room yesterday and tried on the same size I wore in high school.......

They fit-Not tight, just right. I STARTED TEARING UP......

I feel so much better now that I *think* my thyroid is stable and I am able to lose weight.....

Happy times at American Eagle yesterday!!!!

Relay for Life 2009







Why do you relay?


Well, I think cancer is something that needs to be solved-Anyone you meet has lost someone to cancer....so that is why I relay.



Alafia's Relay for Life Team raised $4725 this year! Go us!



Above are some pictures from our campsite, and our weekend guest from school, Freckles the Frog.

Baskets, Baskets Everywhere!

Scrapbook Basket with KI Memories, Purple Cow Trimmer, AC Adhesive, Mini Flower Chipboard Album, MM Album, and matching embellies.
Star Wars Basket

High School Musical....I made my first banner!


Here are some of the raffle baskets I have been working on this past week (and the reason my SB loft looks like an explosion occured)! All of these were raffled off at my school's Relay for Life dinner night. We don't have the final totals for the event, but any money will be a success for this worthy cause! :)

My New Scrapbook Loft.....Almost!







Well, it's coming around slowly, but I will have this SB Loft together soon!

I scored two 12 by 12 paper racks on Craig's List-both for $12!

Josh was so awesome yesterday to go to Lowe's with me and buy all the materials to make me a 6 foot cutting table for my Cricuit, Cuttlebug, and Paper Racks! He sanded all 6 legs, painted them, and I painted the top. I can't wait for it to live in my SB room and house all my die cutting goodies!
