WOOOHOOOO

i completed another LO. yes it was another challenge on the forum www.scrapbookingswede.com . This challenge was called the soundtrack of your life and you were supposed to pick your favorite song and use it in your LO. So i picked In Spite of Ourselves by John Prine. it is mine and my husbands song LOL. we just loved the words to it and we never had a song b4 and then we heard this one. anyway here is the LO.

there is hidden journaling behind the photo (pull on the little heart shaped die cut) which reads:

We found each other at a the young age of 19.
It was practically love at first sight.
We started off as roommates and ended
up together 2 months later.
In spite of everything that we have been through
our love has grown beyond what
we ever imagined and now we have
two beautiful children, our own house and
a wonderful marriage.
With each day our love grows and changes
and soon we will be celebrating 14 yrs
together.
In spite of ourselves.

Here are the song lyrics.

IN SPITE OF OURSELVES
by John Prine and Iris Dement

She don't like her eggs all runnyShe thinks crossin' her legs is funnyShe looks down her nose at moneyShe gets it on like the Easter BunnyShe's my baby I'm her honeyI'm never gonna let her go


He ain't got laid in a month of SundaysI caught him once and he was sniffin' my undiesHe ain't too sharp but he gets things doneDrinks his beer like it's oxygenHe's my babyAnd I'm his honeyNever gonna let him go

In spite of ourselvesWe'll end up a'sittin' on a rainbowAgainst all oddsHoney, we're the big door prizeWe're gonna spite our nosesRight off of our facesThere won't be nothin' but big old heartsDancin' in our eyes.

She thinks all my jokes are cornyConvict movies make her horny She likes ketchup on her scrambled eggsSwears like a sailor when shaves her legsShe takes a lickin'And keeps on tickin' I'm never gonna let her go.

He's got more balls than a big brass monkeyHe's a wacked out werido and a lovebug junkieSly as a fox and crazy as a loonPayday comes and he's howlin' at the moonHe's my baby I don't mean maybeNever gonna let him go

In spite of ourselvesWe'll end up a'sittin' on a rainbowAgainst all oddsHoney, we're the big door prizeWe're gonna spite our nosesRight off of our facesThere won't be nothin' but big old heartsDancin' in our eyes.There won't be nothin' but big old heartsDancin' in our eyes.

(spoken) In spite of ourselves
