I've Been Tagged

Wendy tagged me for the photo game.
Go to where your photos are, pick the 6th folder and the 6th picture in that folder and post it. Tell us about the photo and then tag 6 other people...have fun.

This is Buck's sister Sherri and her husband Mike at a bridal shower that they had.

I'm going to tag whoever would like to play.

Newsletter

Well kids, I think this is my 100th post, and while it doesn't compare to my sisters impressive numerous posts, thought it was monumental in it's own right. Just thought I'd share something with everyone and of course it has to do with the Humane Society....I made the newsletter!! How fun is that? I'm so proud to be a member of this organization. So, here's the excerpt, and glad that Kee Kee found a good home, she really was a sweet dog.

ADOPT-A-THON

Adopt-a-Thon February 28 at the Hydrant Suffolk Humane will sponsor an adopt-a-thon on Saturday, February 28 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Hydrant, 1528 Holland Rd (at the end of the Suffolk bypass). Suffolk Animal Control will be there with adoptable animals. If you are considering adding a new four-legged family member, please come to the adopt-a-thon at the Hydrant. At the January adopt-a-thon, four dogs and one cat found new loving homes! Carol Cunningham is pictured at right with Kee Kee. Kee Kee was adopted at the January adopt-a-thon, and is now in her forever home.

Happy Birthday Josh!

Today is my wonderful son Josh's birthday. I can not believe he is 19! What a wonderful 19 years it has been with this child, well I should say young man. Not to get melancholy or anything, but I can still remember the first time I held him, and I can only say I feel truly blessed to be his mom. I cherish every moment i've had with him.
I love you Squash Man, Happy Birthday!!

• I got presented with my first actual Scrap girl t-shirt!
  
• That I actually did find the AC Moore, which I am eternally grateful for.
• Forgot to take my memory medication, which I can't remember what the name of it is, or even where I put it.
• My wonderful sister Judi presented me with a friends award, which I will treasure!
• Did I mention that I'm putting a GPS on my Christmas list?
  
  

Weekend Update

Had a pretty relaxing weekend. Had an adoption event on Saturday, had 4 dogs get adopted, including these 2 and 1 kitten. Started out as a pretty sunny day, then it started to rain a little, got quite a few folks out. As usual, if we only have 1 adoption, it's a good day :)

After that, went over Wendys to do a little pre-scrap stamping. Debbie and Mom were there as well, learned a few things from Debbie, she is so talented. Came home and relaxed after that.

Today Mom and I headed out to find our local AC Moore, ha ha ha. Let's just say, I wish I would have borrowed Wendy's GPS, I'm gonna put one on my Christmas list for next year. I cannot believe how turned around I was, by some grace of God, we made it there, in one piece. Had a really good time. She is so much fun to be around.

So, I'd have to say it was a pretty good weekend.

Gathering Supplies

Been a busy month here, as usual lol But I have found time to start collecting some thing for the upcoming SDV.
Everyone has offered to let me use their things, but it just doesn't feel right, having to constantly borrow from others. So, I've been checking out EBay, trying to catch some good deals, and hopefully have done pretty good so far.

These are some inkpads that I got. I really wanted to get the "Stampin Up" ones, but Mom assures me that they'll be fine. There are 30 different colors.

Stamps that I have gotten off of EBay. Some of them are used, but in great condition. Now I just need to find some storage boxes.

We have a little drugstore downstairs from where I work. One of the ladies has given me all of these envelopes from their left over cards. They have to send the unsold cards back to the company, and they have been throwing away the envelopes. So, not only did I get free envelopes, i'm recycling...how cool is that? lol

SDV

Well, looks like I'll be attending my first ever SDV (scrappers dream vacation) with "the girls". Not really sure what to expect, they always seem to come back from these things totally exhausted, but have had tons of fun!! It's been so many years since I've scrapped, not even sure I would remember how to do it. Wendy has gotten me into making cards, so I guess I'll be working on those to fill up the great card box she gave me for Christmas. To bad I couldn't take my jewelery stuff lol.
