I JUST GOT IT

I just got it, "I Love My Life That's Why I Decorate It", I saw someone at the Memerios Expo I attended on April 12, with this bag and I GOT IT!! I got a life I love, I no longer walk around wondering what life is all about. My life is what I make it about, my life is full off wonderful children, friends, family, and lots of love. April is my birthday month which someone actually had to remind me that my birthday was coming up. This month I have experienced so much and learned so much and it all came about because of my scrapbooking hobby/business. I know that sounds crazy and I think some people may say this scrapbook thing Chela does is out of control, it's all she wants to do. They may not understand but I LOVE MY LIFE, my life is full of memories and making memories and meeting happy positive people who may not have the best life but we all appreciate the good times and celebrate them. That's what scrapbooking is all about. Here are some pics from the Memories Expo I attended, a piece of my life I LOVE.
