Post Thanksgiving!!!

Yesterday was a busy day....Had my Stampin' Free for All!!! Sandy was hoping to come....but had to work....and everyone else was busy with holiday things....I should have changed the day....but forgot to do it earlier!!!! And my weekends have been swamped....so I don't think there was a free day in there!!! I did get to work on my scrapbook pages, in between getting dinner ready...WE had our second Thanksgiving that evening....so it's probably just as good no one came!!!! I tend to take on more than I can chew!!! The pages were super easy, as I've been trying to use up older Simply Scrappin' kits I have in pieces and parts, left over from classes....These were really old ones...like before they came out with self adhesive dies....adn 8 1/2 x 11" format!!!! The new ones are so much nicer....and they make for very quick and professional pages!!!! Ended up getting 8 pages done!!!!

Post Thanksgiving!!!!

I hope everyone had a Blessed Thanksgiving!!!! Ours started out rather interestingly. I was in the kitchen, working on pre dinner snacks that I was bringing to Kris'...when I had the sensation that I was being watched. I looked out the sliding glass door in the Breakfast Nook...and there stood a huge Buck...ie...deer!!!! I quickly put Rusty in the laundry room, so he wouldn't spook him...didn't need him coming thru the glass...and then went to look to see if there were anymore, and to get my camera....There was another older buck and a doe....Went outside and got some good pictures..., although, at one point, I had to stop, as I think he was getting adjutated!!! They hung around for about 2 hours.



So that was my excitement for Thanksgiving...Dinner at Kris' was yummy, with Kris, Dale, Sarah and Abbey, and Dale's mom there, Nick brought Heather, and Matt came, and my Nephew Mike. Kinda a lazy day...but much to be Thankfull for!!!

Long Day....

It seemed like a very long day today....Not sure why!!!! I ran errands in the morning....then had a field day in Target. I was after a turkey roaster....Last Easter...I was baking a carrott cake the day before Easter...for Easter Dinner...and my oven went up in flames....We never did figure out what was up. I put the cake in and in about 5 minutes...found it burnt to a krisp. Then I was in a panic as we were hosting Easter dinner...and I was afraid to put a ham in the oven....so we went to about every store in Colorado Springs ...looking for a Roaster...and no one had them...I guess they only come out at Christmas....so this year I'm prepared.....got my roaster!!!! Oh...the oven worked perfectly Easter morning!!! Go figure!!!!

Thought I would do a Sneek Peak for my project and swap for Saturday...


I
Got an E-mail from Stampin' Up!...my Certification for My Digital Studio went thru...so I am Official....have been having so much fun with it!!!!Stop by and I will give you a demo!!
Here's what I've been workign on today....

It's similar to one in the catalog...except I made a window sheet cover. Thought I would do a Blog Give away!!!! Leave me a comment....and I will draw for a set of the tags next Tuesday!!! Check back to see if you are a winner...and I will get it off to you!!!
