Phew!

Crazy weekend...need a day off to recover....

back to work tomorrow...so busy there too...

such as life :)

October Afternoon

It's good to have a stash...then you can pull out yummy kits like this October Afternoon stuff from a year or so ago :)  Love OA...scraps itself...

I love my dymo...

Donna Downy's class....

Was awesome!!!

Learned sooo much from her!  Wow she knows what's going on in product!

I think I better start making notes because I don't think I will be able to remember all that.

She is funny too, she shared a few things with us...still makes me giggle :)

I loved it, and look forward to another...

We made art journals :)

She gave us all one to work in...they are neat...

The part I thought was the coolest....I was holding her art journal that is working on right now...the one on her blog, that was my "ah...ha" moment for some reason....to see the "real life"

that was cool

Now to finish it...LOL



just a busy day....

I should smash that...I did take a few photos of everything that happened today...

Rich had surgery, it went well...he spent the night and I picked him up in between Josh's dental appointment and Olivia's fracture clinic appointment.....just a busy day...that's ok, happy to do it all...

Here is a pic of the smart a$$ before surgery, didn't quite look like that after LOL

I see a lot of pink layouts in my future....

Take care!!

whoa! what a weekend!

hope the weather was just as good where you were :)

we socialized all weekend, it was wonderful!

I created three layouts today with my friend Carrie, here are two of them.

I was following the Scrapping Bug challenges for these layouts :)

Josh went to a birthday party on Sunday, they played paint ball in Brantford, he is on the injured list now.

Not looking very good is it...

what's with my kids and their limbs??!!

Back to work tomorrow...not too excited about that but what can you do...

It will be a short week, with some time off in between....I have a loaded week, should be interesting :)

Saturday is looking super good :)  I will be in Cambridge in the Donna Downy class :)

Take care!

  

CKC and a broken wrist...

 Here we are...Carrie and I at CKC Buffalo.  We took 3 classes and we both won prizes in our classes.

I picked up some neat stuff, some Faber Castel Gelatos, an album kit from the Button Farm and a pair of Tim Holtz scissors.  Some good deals on staple supplies (cats eye ink, glue dots, ATG refils etc) at one particular booth, stocked up on some stuff, $5.95 for two rolls of Scotch ATG acid free refils!!

I really wanted a few of Christy's stamps but I didn't see any there.

OHHHH!!  Love my tapes was there!   I bought some washi tape...wow addicting stuff.  I already had a few rolls and started using it last week....I used it on my card in the post below....love it, it's fun stuff!

Then we went here for dinner....

 It was very good :)

Dinner was too....LOL

So here is Olivia at the hospital while the doctor is starting a partial cast for her broken arm.

Poor little thing, she tripped over a bike in the neighbours back yard, she has a buckle fracture in her left wrist.   We will get her a fibre glass cast on Thursday so she will be able to swim in the pool.

It's the long weekend!  We are going to some friends tonight for some fun, Rich is going to open the pool tomorrow and Monday I am going to scrap!

Have a wonderful weekend :)

I made something....

a card...actually two :)

the thank you card is for my co-workers, they gave me a parting gift on Monday :)

I'm not actually leaving my job, just the physical location, so I won't be able to harass these girls on a daily basis any more...poor things, they will miss me...LOL

don't forget, there are always two sides to a story...LOL

anyway, I will miss them terribly and it won't be the same, but when I'm feeling department sick (vs home sick) I will go back to that office :) and visit :)

I don't know what this one is for....I used washi tape...neat stuff I must say.

I made the flower too.

It was a challenge over at the Scrapping Bug :)
