Free time?!

(I hate it when the Internet Explorer quits and I lose everything I've just typed, I lose all ambition and don't want to do anymore blogging!)

So, in my past weeks of "house arrest" I have been trying to find things to do. I've cleaned the house, I've mopped the floor, I've done the dishes, I've done laundry, I've watched movies, and I've even played Nintendo. Recently, tho, these tasks have become mundane and boring. So, in trying to find new things to do, I started going at all the boxes containing my jewlery and makeup. All are in seperate boxes because I moved to Utah, then to the apartment, and then finally to the house. So I got to tossing out lone earrings, broken necklaces, unused bracelets, and the like, when I came across the jewlery I wore for the wedding! I was so excited that I found it all, and I didn't want to lose any of it again. I wanted to display it and put it somewhere that losing it wasn't possible. I came up with the idea of a shadowbox! So, I got one of my bridal pictures, and some of the ribbon from the wedding, and all my jewlery and stuck it in this shadowbox. Mark says it looks great, I say it looks like I got lazy and just pinned all this jewlery up next to a photo. But oh well, it's on the wall and that's where it's staying because it was such a pain to get up on the wall, I didn't even take it down to get a decent picutre of it!


Also, in my wanderings of the house, I found Mark's box of stuff from his room. I found all the little funny crap I made him when we were dating. Like the picture frame that I scrapbooked and all of our photostrips from the photo booths. So I hung the scrapbooke picture frame on the wall, and even hung the little Love You saying I got at Seagull Book, so here is also a picture of that. Once we get the wedding photos, I'll put one in the upper left hand corner, and one in the bottom left hand corner (it'll look more even that way!)
love always, bry and mark <3

Sweet Bry. We'll have to plan some crafty things like that when we come and visit while the boys go fishing!

I really like the wedding jewelry in with the picture. Mine is just sitting in the jewelry box. I may have to steal this idea.
