I absolutely love fall!!!!! I just wish it lasted longer. Jon and I took the kids to Canyon Lake tonight to get some pictures before all of the beautiful colors were brown and the wind had blown all of the leaves to the ground. Loved the place (thank you Kara) I had no idea there was a walking path back there!!! We all had so much fun and got some amazing pictures then enjoyed ice cream afterwards!!! What a perfect evening!

What a fun weekend in Spearfish!!!!! Thank you Cathy, Kara and Cara for making it so much fun and enjoyable. Love you guys!!!! I actually got some pages done with the Lost and Found paper that I did not like at all when Cathy got it into the store, now I can't get enough of it!!! LOVE IT!!! however, am still picking glitter out of my hair (and my nose!!!!).

We had a messy night at our house with some friends and the neighbor girl..... I put spagetti on the table and they had to use their hands, no plates, no forks. They all thought I had lost my mind, and rightfully so!!!!! Then I filled a table with shaving cream and tempra paint and let them paint eachother and the paper hung on the garage, gave them each a can of silly string, each a can of shaving cream and then brought out a gallon bucket of chocolate pudding, gallon of green jello and a gallon of red jello to spear on each other. They all had SOOOOO MUCH Fun and were covered literally from head to toe by the time they were done and so was my yard!!!!! afterwards we gave them water balloons and hosed them off and made smores on the back deck. OH THE MEMORIES!!!!!!

Ok, so I know I am terrible about updating this. It sounded like so much fun when I started it!!!!!!! Well since the weather was crappy all weekend. I did virtually nothing but scrap book (and cleaned my scrap room so I could get to my things)... I definitely need a few more weekends like this last one and then maybe I would be getting something accomplished.

Who would have thought that two grown women could get so excited about clear egg cartons!!!!!! Cathy found an entire website dedicated to egg cartons and we just had to have the clear ones to put our alcohol ink eggs in!!!!! I had gotten all of my eggs done so last night I worked on decorating the cartons!!! ADORABLE. photos to come, for some reason my computer is acting up and doesn't want to load the pictures right. Working on it though.

Well, what a week!!! So glad it is the weekend!!!! My friend's nephew got out of the hospital yesterday to go to the state B tournament games this weekend and then will go back for more radiation starting Monday. Really makes you think about what you have and hug your kids more often and a lot tighter....... I got all 13 dozen of my easter eggs alcohol inked this week, now just if the egg cartons would get here!!!!! My husband things we seriously need help and there must be some sort of treatment for this sort of thing. I assured him there is treatment for this sort of thing, it is called CREATE MORE!!!!! I got my project life caught up tonight. I am pretty proud of myself, I have done pretty well with it this year and typically print pictures and put them in each week (however, it is only March!!!!) Well, I must go find my shoes and purse, I have 13 minutes to get them and get to Blockbuster to rent New Moon at midnight!

I love this layout of Haley even though it weighs a ton with all of the layered paper!!!!!

This is my favorite layout that I did at the retreat. Very impressed with how it turned out.

Yes, I am fully aware that my blog says it has been some ..... 6 months or something since last updated. Life has been crazy at my house and everywhere around me. We are finally done with hockey... YEAH and onto baseball... Not so yeah.... I am not ready to sit out there and watch games and freezy my fingers and hiney off. but..... I went to the retreat in Chamberlain with Kathy and had an amazing time and actually got a little bit of stuff done.. I will try my hardest to keep up better on my blog, but no promises to anyone!
