			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear John, what a great movie &amp; Channing Tatum is HOT!!!</p>
<p>I have not read the book yet but, maybe I will now!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3701" title="Dear John" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Dear-John.jpg" alt="Dear John" width="280" height="280" /></p>
<p>Pelham 123 was a good, action movie. I have never personally seen John Travolta in a role like this&#8230;bad a**!!!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3703" title="The Taking of Pelham 1,2,3" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/The-Taking-of-Pelham-123-300x300.jpg" alt="The Taking of Pelham 1,2,3" width="300" height="300" /></p>
<p>Couples Retreat wasn&#8217;t what I expected, I thought it was going to be alot more funny!</p>
<p>Again, what you see in commericals is what is funny.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3698" title="Couples Retreat" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Couples-Retreat1-201x300.jpg" alt="Couples Retreat" width="201" height="300" /></p>
<p>Alice in Wonderland was awesome, we actually went to see it as a family while we were in Los Angeles, we didn&#8217;t see it in 3-D as I&#8217;m really not a big 3-D fan (**GASP**), I loved the movie, I thought it was just great &amp; Johnny Depp, well enough said! My son seemed to enjoy it my daughter said it was &#8220;OK&#8221; maybe it wasn&#8217;t &#8220;girly&#8221; enough for her!!!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3717" title="Alice-In-Wonderland-Theatrical-Poster" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Alice-In-Wonderland-Theatrical-Poster-202x300.jpg" alt="Alice-In-Wonderland-Theatrical-Poster" width="202" height="300" /></p>
<p><a href="http://www.amazon.ca/Have-Little-Faith-True-Story/dp/0786868724" target="_blank"><strong>Have a Little Faith</strong></a> by Mitch Albom, great book once again. I love Mitch Albom &amp; his books just really warm the heart.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3718" title="Have a Little Faith" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Have-a-Little-Faith-300x300.jpg" alt="Have a Little Faith" width="300" height="300" /></p>
<p>Well I must apologize that I have nothing &#8220;crafty&#8221; to show you yet again <strong>(**blushing**)</strong>&#8230;the last 5-6 weeks here have been a little crazy so I haven&#8217;t done alot of crafting but, I&#8217;m hoping to get some done in the next couple of days because for one I have absolutely no cards left in my &#8220;card box&#8221; &amp; I hate that, I need to finish up some Easter stuff &amp; well truth be told I just miss it!</p>
<p>So please be patient&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some other movies we have seen.</p>
<p>Santa Buddies</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3579" title="Santa Buddies" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Santa-Buddies.jpg" alt="Santa Buddies" width="220" height="220" /></p>
<p>What a cute, cute movie!</p>
<p>I bought the puppy package from Wal-mart, it came with the movie &amp; the 5 puppies in it for my daughter after she got her braces on&#8230;soooo cute!</p>
<p>and Becaue of Winn-Dixie</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3580" title="Because of Winn-Dixie" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Because-of-Winn-Dixie.jpg" alt="Because of Winn-Dixie" width="280" height="280" /></p>
<p>My daughter read this book in school &amp; is now working on a book report, they also watched the movie in school but, she didn&#8217;t get to watch it all because she was off school sick so we rented it last night. Heart warming story.</p>
<p>The Proposal with Sandra Bullock &amp; Ryan Reynolds.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3585" title="proposal_xlg" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/proposal_xlg-202x300.jpg" alt="proposal_xlg" width="202" height="300" /></p>
<p>Oh my gosh what a funny, funny movie! I haven&#8217;t laughed that hard in a long time!!! </p>
<p>I finally finished reading <a href="http://www.jodipicoult.com/songs-humpback-whale.html" target="_blank"><strong>Songs of the Humpback Whale</strong></a> by Jodi Picoult, it seemed to take me FOREVER to read this book, liked it but, somehow I always wish for a different ending! I&#8217;m always rooting for the underdog it seems!!!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3584" title="songs_whale_lg" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/songs_whale_lg1-193x300.jpg" alt="songs_whale_lg" width="193" height="300" /></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sunday night we watched Bring It On: Fight to the Finish, I know how cheezy but, because I have a 9 year old daughter I can get away with watching these <strong>really, really</strong> cheesy movies! This movie went straight to DVD, it was entertaining to say the least!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3420" title="Bring It On Fight to the Finish" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/Bring-It-On-Fight-to-the-Finish.jpg" alt="Bring It On Fight to the Finish" width="99" height="140" /></p>
<p>Monday night I went &amp; saw My Sister&#8217;s Keeper with a friend, it was a good, sad, weepy movie but, I knew this because I had read the book, the movie was good, Abigail Breslin is such a great young actress the only thing that kind of bothered me was the ending of the movie, completely different from the book.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3419" title="My Sister's Keeper" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/My-Sisters-Keeper-202x300.jpg" alt="My Sister's Keeper" width="202" height="300" /></p>
<p>I just finished reading Jacquelyn Mitchard&#8217;s Still Summer, it was <strong>GOOD!</strong></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3422" title="Still Summer" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/Still-Summer.jpg" alt="Still Summer" width="240" height="240" /></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday morning we got up bright &amp; early &amp; had breakfast, finished packing &amp; than got the kid&#8217;s up, we were out the door before 9AM which was early for us!</p>
<p>We had some time to kill before going to the airport so we went to <a href="http://www.balboapark.org/" target="_blank"><strong>Balboa Park</strong></a>, this is our 2nd time to San Diego, we went when my daughter was only 4 months old &amp; I absolutely loved Balboa Park than &amp; I still love it, the beauty of all the museums, etc is just spectacular, I really wished we had another day so that we could have taken in everything at Balboa Park but, we ran out of time.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3371" title="IMG_6256" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/IMG_6256.JPG" alt="IMG_6256" width="400" height="266" /></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3372" title="IMG_6282" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/IMG_6282.JPG" alt="IMG_6282" width="400" height="525" /></p>
<p>Bells ring from here.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3373" title="IMG_6265" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/IMG_6265.JPG" alt="IMG_6265" width="400" height="266" /></p>
<p>These trees are stunning, lush, green&#8230;gorgeous!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3374" title="IMG_6268" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/IMG_6268.JPG" alt="IMG_6268" width="400" height="266" /></p>
<p>All tiles.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3375" title="IMG_6272" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/IMG_6272.JPG" alt="IMG_6272" width="400" height="600" /></p>
<p>The organ, absolutely breathtaking, organ music was playing the whole time, very majestic &amp; <strong>HUGE. </strong>I guess they have concerts here too.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3376" title="IMG_6273" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/IMG_6273.JPG" alt="IMG_6273" width="400" height="600" /></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3377" title="IMG_6275" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/IMG_6275.JPG" alt="IMG_6275" width="400" height="527" /></p>
<p>That&#8217;s my daughter standing there!</p>
<p>After Balboa we went &amp; returned our rental car than headed to the airport for a 1:30PM flight home, the flight was great, the kid&#8217;s were low key so I was able to basically read the whole time, I finished reading my book last night, the 3rd in The Spa Girls series: Calm, Cool &amp; Adjusted, this time Poppy&#8217;s story, it was fun!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3378" title="Calm, Cool &amp; Adjusted" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/51X1HBM3ACL__SS500_.jpg" alt="Calm, Cool &amp; Adjusted" width="350" height="350" /></p>
<p>It was a great day to come home because all day it was cloudy &amp; overcast, I&#8217;m glad to be home safely, it&#8217;s always nice to come home but, we are <strong>ALL</strong> going to miss going to the beach every single day &amp; feeling sand between our toes!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is the 2nd book in the series, the first book was from Lilly&#8217;s point of view &amp; this book was from Morgan&#8217;s point of view, I will start the 3rd book in the series today so I wonder who&#8217;s point of view it&#8217;s from&#8230;maybe Poppy&#8217;s.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/510nt1se3ll__bo2204203200_pisitb-sticker-arrow-clicktopright35-76_aa240_sh20_ou01_.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3198" title="A Girl's Best Friend" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/510nt1se3ll__bo2204203200_pisitb-sticker-arrow-clicktopright35-76_aa240_sh20_ou01_.jpg" alt="" width="240" height="240" /></a></p>
<p>At first when I started reading this book I wasn&#8217;t sure if I like Morgan&#8217;s point of view because I was so use to Lilly&#8217;s but, she kinda grew on me, as I got further in the book I started enjoying it more.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>These canvas&#8217;s took forever to complete for some reason, I painted them in the Fall, than they sat in my scrapbook room for month&#8217;s, than I saw Amy&#8217;s post <a href="http://prairiepaperandink.typepad.com/amyr/2009/03/butterfly-canvases.html" target="_blank"><strong>here</strong></a> &amp; I fell in love with what she did, so I said that&#8217;s what I&#8217;m going to do with mine &amp; also add some inspiration that my family can look at everytime they come downstairs to start their day. The quote is from Winston Churchill, the butterflies were stamped in Versamark on Stampin&#8217; Up! cardstock, than embossed with Stampin&#8217; Up! detail black embossing powder than hand cut over a few days (I still have some left). I still want to paint on some Shimmerz but, I&#8217;m waiting for my order, so that&#8217;s something I can do anytime.</p>

<p>Some other stuff, my son lost his 2nd tooth on Tuesday very exciting.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/img_5113.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3131" title="img_5113" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/img_5113.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="297" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday we took the kid&#8217;s to Big Hill Springs Provincial Park, it&#8217;s 30KM West of Airdrie, this was our first time going there, when I first got there, I was like great&#8230;<strong>BORING!!! </strong>My hubby is really good at taking us on these &#8220;great adventures&#8221; to no where!!! but, than we started walking into this amazing little &#8220;forest&#8221; and we hiked and we hiked, we got up pretty high, the view was breathtaking, there were little rivers everywhere, still some snow, ice and mud but, the kid&#8217;s had a blast, and it was soooo warm in certain parts of the valley&#8217;s.</p>
<p>We would definately go there again and bring our lunches.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img_4189.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2879" title="J &amp; T with Dad" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img_4189.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="266" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img_4208.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2880" title="img_4208" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img_4208.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="600" /></a></p>
<p>My son is a total &#8220;ham&#8221;, this was a walking stick that he &#8220;acquired&#8221; on our hike, it was as tall as me!</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img_4214.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2881" title="Snowy trees" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img_4214.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="600" /></a></p>
<p>I thought this was a cool view along our hike, a snowy pathway.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img_4242.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2882" title="T on hill" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img_4242.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="600" /></a></p>
<p>My daughter is the biggest &#8220;poser&#8221; ever. I never have a hard time getting pics of her. This was on top of the hill.</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img_4225.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2883" title="Creek" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img_4225.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="600" /></a></p>
<p>This turned out to be a cool pic I believe!</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img_4246.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2884" title="Wild Flowers" src="http://blog.michellescrapbooking.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img_4246.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="266" /></a></p>
<p>These flowers were growing all over the top of the hill thru the hay like grass.</p>

<p>I also finished another book yesterday, <a href="http://www.randomhouse.com/teens/sisterhoodcentral/3willows/home.html" target="_blank"><strong>3 Willows</strong></a> by: Ann Brashares. It was good, I am a fan of The Sisterhood, I had no idea really what this book was about, it didn&#8217;t really have anything to do with The Sisterhood but, it had &#8220;references&#8221;, a good, light hearted read.</p>
<p>You can go <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/index.html?curid=18578566" target="_blank"><strong>here</strong></a> to read a little bit about it.</p>

<p>Well I hope you all have a great sunny Sunday, today is the last day of Spring Break, yippeeeeee!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I finally finished reading this book last night, not sure why it took me so long but, it did!</p>
<p>I bought this book just before Christmas probably in November hoping that it would &#8220;speak&#8221; to me and explain to me why Christmas has become so commercialized and really take me back to the true meaning of Christmas and how to pass this information onto my family, no different than Easter and what it&#8217;s true meaning is all about.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s good and I&#8217;m sure you have all heard of Rick Warren.</p>
