Congratulations on your successes in your fitness. Your journaling is very inspiring for me to get off my {big} ole' tushy and work out. You look wonderful. What an amazing accomplishment to have climbed a mountain for 6 hours! So awesome!!!! Way to go girlie!
I am so proud of you; hiking is underestimated.. It is very hard work. We used to hike alot. Last hike for us was Blood Mountain, and the kids were just too old and they didn't enjoy it as much as they used to. But, at the top we too found a Beautiful site! I love these colors, the oranges are so lovely with this photo and I love this one with you in it. Great stitching work, and love the layering too :)
really love this lo!! love those little flowers at the bottom, love that stitching and really love your journaling!! great work with the cbx!!! super job!!
Hey...o.k. I didn't read the journaling until after I posted my first commit. Go you for hiking up the 6hour mountain. I did the Avon Breast cancer walk that was 24.2 miles. I know just want you mean when you said that a feeling came over you. I had the same thing happen. I'm so proud of you. keep up the great work. Oh hey you can find that avon page in my gallery.
Girl the is soooo gorgeous!! Congrat's on making it to the top. Beautiful site to behold. Love your pick of colors and papers here. Your sewing is so perfect and it's a very nice touch!! Going into my fave's!!
Sorry for the bad scan. The picture just came out really dark, I tried scanning this about 5 times haha and everything is still so dark. I started making a 9x9 album of Shawn and I's latest trip to Gatlinburg :) This layout really means a lot to me, I had a lot of fun making it :)

When I look at this picture, tears come to my eyes. A year ago I wouldn't have made it to the top of Mount Le Conte in the Smoky Mountains. It would have been hard for me just to walk a mile without falling down and not wanting to get up. I'm so thankful for the fact I started working out and it wouldn't have happened if it was for my unbelievable determination to be healthy and Shawn being here for me. Well, here I am, almost to the top of the mountain. When we made it to the top, a feeling of amazement swept over me. I was so proud of myself for making it and proud of Shawn for being right by my side sweating it out. Our hike was quite a long one to get to the top. The sign at the bottom said it would take six to eight hours for the round trip. We hiked it in about six hours. Most of the hike was uphill and there were beautiful views at every turn. Shawn and I have been hiking before but never on a six hour hike. It's so great to know that I am healthy and able to do such a strenuous hike. I can not wait for more adventures like this one.
