CKC....St. Louis and Melody Ross

I got to meet Melody Ross at Archivers this past weekend while attendin CKC St Louis. I've always loved her product since Chatterbox. She has a new line GCD Studio carries. Let me tell you, it is a must have. I purchased her new tool kit. Can't wait to play with that little baby. And pretty well all her paper, embellishments etc. (bought too much....but couldn't resist). I love her product, but love the Brave Girls Club she and her sister have. You can read about that is an earlier post of mine....just scroll down. I wish my daughter, Baley, would have been able to meet her. Baley loves their Brave Girl Club daily inspirations.

Besides buying her product, there was a drawing to win her products at the Strictly Scrapbooking Booth. WHOO HOO!!!! I won. It The ladies at this booth were extremely kind and fun. If you go to a CKC Convention and they have a booth, make a point to stop and say hi and buy something from them. They carry great lines. They told me they were in the process of opening an online store. I have them listed on my side bar, so keep checking on their site. They are awesome ladies.

Speaking of awesome ladies.......here is Melody demonstrating her new tool.

Love it, Love it, Got it.

Some of my winnings.........such fun stuff.

This 2 page layout is from the GCD Studio Class, 6 pages in 60 minutes. And yes, we completed 6 pages in 60 minutes. And of course the product is the Melody Ross line. I'll post some more of the class at a later time. I had a great time at CKC with some old friends, ran into old friends and met new ones

Happy Thursday......I'm off to the Unity Hip Hop

Just tidbits.....yep second post

Can you tell which team I'm a fan of..........GO Cards!

These are my new cushions for the porch furniture. I just love polka dots.

Sweet Gunnar. This was the Friday night before Easter. The kids always

go to Aunt K-K's to dye eggs. They can do anything they want at her house. When Logan was little, he would always want to go to K-K's because (in his own words) "she doesn't

stop our excitement". And it is true.

Caleb......I think he has Dad and Dylan Joe's expression.

Sammi and Andrew picking Easter Flowers for their moms.

These are just a few things that make me happy.

Weekend with Andrew and Sammi

Is this not just priceless? We took Andrew and Sammi to Holiday Inn for the weekend

so they could swim. (Yes it was back in the winter and I'm just now posting) Andrew

went to sleep with his goggles on so he would be ready to go swimming when he woke

up the next morning. Now I'd say that is anticipation.

These two are a riot. I think they have passed the stage of fighting with each other. (I

hope anyway) Give them both a pool and they are happy.

Little Miss Sassy didn't really want her picture taken. She would keep

going under the water about the time I would snap the picture. But I did get

this one. It was nice just to sit with nothing to do, but watch them have fun.

A Few Cards

I got my Easter Cards finished (finally) over the weekend. I thought I would post some of them. Ippity Stamps........yes!!!!!!!!!! I used the Springtime set and What Really Matters set. I love these stamps. If you are interested in purchasing these stamps, Rona at Jackson sells them. Her blog is http://scraprona.blogspot.com/ and she is actually running a sale I believe.

If I don't get back on here this week, everyone have a Happy, Blessed Easter.

Thanks for looking and let me know you stopped by.

Try Again

One more try

Try again

I'm trying to see if I can post a signature.

Still Playing

I'm still trying to learn how to customize my blog....so be patient.

My Girls

Here are some pics of Baley and Sammi taken last November. Kara took these pictures. It just seems like time is flying so fast. Doesn't seem that long ago that Baley was Sammi's age. Love my girls.

I'm Back

Almost a year......wow. Sorry about that for anyone that happens to look at my blog. I guess I've gotten so wrapped up in facebook, I kinda let this go. I'm going to try to do better. Post more news, pictures, and maybe even some of my scrapbook projects. So be patient.

Been A Long Time.......

Please meet Sammi's bunny......."Sweetie Pie, Sugar Cookie, Jo, Oreo........yes that is what she named it. She and her daddy built a rabbit hutch for it. So far Daisy (her dog) likes the bunny, let's just hope it stays that way.

Sammi's Mom and Dad got her a 4-wheeler. I'm talking about one that has a motor (not battery operated). You can tell by Sammi's face she loves it. But I'm not crazy about it. They all say I'm worry too much....maybe I do, but that's just me.

Sunday, April 5th is Dad's birthday....he will be 72 years old....looks pretty good doesn't he? My Dad is the wisest man I know. Even at my age I still learn from him. I tell my kids and grandkids, "When Grandpa talks, listen, you will learn something." He is a wonderful man and father. Happy Birthday Dad.

Wow, I didn't realize it had been so long since I've posted. For those of you (besides Kenny) that check in here.......sorry.

I'm ready for nice weather, aren't you? Here are some of my favorite things about spring.
The smell of fresh mowed grass...

BBQ.....

Flowers.......
Sitting on my front porch....

Longer days.....

And of course taking the grandkids outside and letting them run.

Wishing everyone a wonderful and blessed day.
