Summer Update

It has been so long since I have posted that I almost forgot how! This summer has been crazy busy and I have had little time to blog unless I stay up really late...and let's face it, I need all the beauty sleep I can get! I was on the planning committee for my high school reunion that happened in July. I barely survived and I think I'm still recovering. Planning an event like that is pretty stressful because people have such high expections for their reunion. I'd say it was very nice...the hardest part is managing the budget because you start off with $0. The entire event is paid for with registration fees. The other hard part was finding everyone. We only found about half of the graduating class and only about 1/3 of them actually came. Luckily it all worked out fine. I think most everyone had a good time.

Dad's knee is healing very well. He's been fishing and doing some yard work. He's even resumed cooking and grocery shopping...all is pretty much back to normal.

I have finished my Jamaica scrapbook and have moved on the the second book. I have been using my spare time shopping for "scrap crap" but not as much time actually scrapping. The hoarding tendancies are definitely working their way into this hobby. I have been resisting it for so long, but the hoardies have been unleashed. I will never be able to use all of the stuff I have purchased, even if I scrap day and night for a decade. Here is a picture of my first scrapbook page. I used DCWV Citrus and Travel paper and some miscellanous embellishments and bling. Cricut cartridges Life is a Beach and another one that I'll have to add later. Hope you like it! More to come, I'm just tired since it has now taken me 1 hr to complete this post!
