Well no creative things to show today. I'm working on a couple of things but didn't have everything I needed and couldn't find it locally, so had to resort to ordering on line. Bummer!!! Won't be in until Fri. So frustrating!

Check out Tim's blog today, he has a video of using rock candy! Need to get some of that!

My sister is coming from CA today, hopefully family picnic on Sat. Can't wait to see her! Should be fun and I'm sure I will fill up my camera again! lol I'm known to my kids & grandkids as grannie flash! What can I say, can't help it!

It's going to be a beautiful day out today, so hope to spend some time outdoors. Should clean my craft room but oh well we don't get that many nice days so we need to take advantage of them when we can!

Here is a few photos of two of my grandkids from the last time they were here. They are so much fun! They all will be coming this weekend, the guys are taking Caidin fishing on Sun. Hope they get some great pictures!

Have a good one!

Book Mark

I have been a little scarce here, busy, busy! I had Landi's boys over the weekend they always keep me busy! Bridger was a little accident prone this weekend and had to take him home with a black eye and goose egg on his forehead! Wooooo he gave his grannie a scare! I was so stressed I didn't even take a picture after it was all over! Do you believe that!!! Boy I'm slipping! No actually was very worried! But he is a tough little guy and came through it better then me!!! Needless to say this time I was really glad to bring him home!!!! I did get some photos of them playing in the little pool so will post those soon, hopefully in a layout.

I got a new bind-it-all last Fri. so excited!! I have been working on a little album and hope to get it binded soon! Will post it when completed.

Here is a book mark I did for a grunge paper swap at Tim Holtz yahoo group, what fun!

Well that's it for today, hope next post will have a lot of inspiration!

Have a good one!

Winner

WOW! I have had a fun, exciting, exhausting last couple of weeks! First CHA then grandsons here. Finally getting it back together I think! lol
A few have commented on the deserts in previous post, let me tell you they were huge!
There was 3 of us and we ordered the carrot cake in the lower right hand side of picture and brought it home & shared it later, it was awesome! Best carrot cake I've ever had!

Here is a few things we did/happened while the grandsons were here, cake making, frog scare, little brother bitting older brother on cheek! Ouch!! And a pic of the cute little face who did the scareing & bitting. Aren't they sweet! Love having them around! Keeps me on my toes for sure!












Got a little time last night to finish another page of the album I'm working on. Absolutely loving Studio 490 stamps by Wendy Vechhi!!!!!!
