HMITM challenge #24

Wow I really made it this week! But I will have to admit: This IS to much for me! :) Aren´t you proud of me, Kim?! :)

this & that

First of all; thank you very much for the congratulations on my birthday! It is way cool to have you do that! Another very cool thing is what sweet Susie wrote on Beezieland, which I am a proud part of,

Happy birthday, Lisa O!
How does it feel to be 28? How have you been celebrating? What was your birthday weather like today, and what did you get? :D
I'm so happy that you have joined our community. It is GOOD to have a correspondent representing Sweden :), and good for suziebeezieland to have such a talented chicky onboard . . . I am in awe of your abilities with both languages and scrapbooking. Dude. Hooray, Lisa O. Hooray! :)

And sweetest Inge made me a package full of goodies and sent it for my birthday. And it arrived just on the day! It made me smile all day!

I took that funny photo of my family kissing me on my birthday and loved it. So much in fact I had to scrap it... :) I took out some paint this time. I bought some new colors during my shopping spree and it was fun using it here. The journaling say that the best gift was this: a dubble kiss from my darlings! I used some bling that came in Inges package and some newspaper for the flower.

As you may know we have a cat. A wonderful all grey cat who is so cute and friendly. BUT with cats mice follow :( Blah! I hate mice! Atleast when they are IN my home! So, when I opened the door to let the sweet kitty in one morning I did just that, let him in without seeing what he had in his mouth. Here you may insert loud girly squeeking noises from me running arround looking for the mouse!!!! I found it my daughters room and also found out that the cat did his job and it was a dead mouse. Pfew! I was like : what are we going to do, what are we going to do?!!! It was out of the question for me to even go near the animal and my daughter was still in her bed waking up. She thought for a while, during which the cat continued to play with the poor (yes I acctually felt sorry for it by then) mouse. She looked at me and said; Mommy, if I get a glove I can get it and take it outside. I looked at her, my animal-loving, courages, wonderful daughter, and said Are you sure? She replied a happy yes and so we did. The plan was to get the mouse in a bag so she could take it outside and lay it on the ground. Said and done, she goes in and says: Oh, mommy he has such cute teeth! HA! But she did it! She is my heroe from now and for eternity! I made a layout for the album offcourse and use some paint here too. The 4 other images are from the minialbum which is under the photo on the lo.

I made this one using up alot of my red buttons. It was fun! This is J and my DH and about their friendship through me! Oh, and I used felt for the border too!

This lo is sensured for privacy reasons, but I wanted to post it anyway. :)

Thanks for stopping by! Remember to say hi in the comments section!

Smile!

My husband in his cool hat! There is some hidden journaling under the papperned paper. Everything looks crocked but I blame it on the scanner, argh!

My grandfather is from the former Jugoslavia and he has his relatives including his brother still there. My grandfather came to Sweden in 1969 so he has lived here for a long time. I think it is so cool that he chats with his brother over the web-cam! :)

A story of a boy

I want to tell a story about a boy. A boy i have known for almost 10 years. We met in an odd way, I got a mass email and i randomly picked his email address out of the many included in the email. I wrote something like: you don´t know me and i don´t know you, but maybe we can get to know eachother. I know crazy! But he answered and we have been friends since then. We started emailing eachother talking about ourselfes and getting to know eachother. Then come the day that he called me HA! I actually asked him if he could call me back in 5 minutes because I just couldn´t transit to speaking English that suddenly J Haha! He did! We began calling eachother (mostly him calling!) and then he went away for a cuple of months and we had to write eachother instead. He has always been such a fun, happy and kind friend. And when he called (or did he email? I forget) and said that he would love to come and visit us I freaked! I was so nervous, but it was fantastic to actually meet the person that i felt I already knew so good. That was in 2004 and he stayed with us for almost 2 weeks. It was awesome! Then he came again this fall for a weekend and we had so much fun. It is funny how a longdistance friend can have such a big part in our daily life. We talk about him and reference to him on a daily bases. The most wonderful thing about him is his generosity. He is by far the most generous person I know. And by that i don´t necessarily mean the killer packages we get from him (even though we LOVE those suprises!!!) but mainly I am talking about him calling on my birthday every year and/or text message me 12 oclock midnight so that he is the first to say Happy birthday, him calling to just say hi, him coming all the way from the States to visit and him thinking of me/us during his many trips by posting postcards and pick up small, sweet soveniers. He gives us so much of himself and we are so happy to be able to call him our friend! We love you J!
