I DID IT!!! TWICE

Yes, I did it...my first class was a success. SGT has the nicest customers. My August class looks like it will sell out soon too. Thanks to all who came to the class and made it memorable. Second, I got up on the wake board after not being at the lake for TWO years. Last summer I had foot surgery so missed the lake experience altogether. And at "my age" I wasn't sure I could get these old bones up. My family had a much needed weekend of R and R. It was exciting to see my 5 year old daughter's excitement for the water sports. She loved it all and wanted to be first on everything. Here's some pictures I will definitely have to scrap. Looking forward to all the new product shipping from CHA Summer.

A New Look

Tonight is my first class at Scrappin' Good Times. Although I admit, I am a little nervous, I am also very excited. SGT has the best customers that make the classes fun and a joy to teach...so, I am looking forward to getting to know the customers better and share the love of Scrapbooking with them. On that note - I took some time to add current pictures to my "heritage" layout. Although the look is the same, the pictures can be swapped out. This is my son when he was one. The journaling reads..."Here you are at one year old. You are such a happy little boy with the most contagious laughter. Always remember...within your mind and heart are the keys to open any door. I love you with all my heart. Mommy 7.13.01"

Avila Farms

I have to tell anyone who is going to the central coast you MUST stop by Avila Farms. They are a working farm with the best produce selection. There are animals to feed (sheep, goats, cows, ponies, Emu's, etc.), hay rides, roasted corn on the cobb, ice cream store. You can even pick your own rasberries, olalaberries, and peaches. It's just such a relaxing place to hang out for the afternoon. Thank goodness I just finished scrapbooking last years trip. I wonder how long it will take me to do this years? Take a look at how beautiful the central coast it.

p.s. Thank you Jennifer...you're the best.

Cambria Vacation 2007

Every time I go on vacation I always ask myself: is all this packing, unpacking, packing up, and unpacking again worth it? Of coarse we always have fun but my gosh...all the stuff that MUST go is more that a car can hold...thank goodness I have an Excursion to fit it all in; otherwise, what would we do??? Now for the laundry and getting back into our summer routine.
