New Catalog Stuff Is Here :)

It's here! My new SU stuff from their new catalog - YEAH! I was so "into" my new toys that I didn't even realize Breanna had taken these pictures! I got in 9 new stamp sets, 4 new sets of paper (2 DP sets, 1 mix of 8.5 x 11 and 12 x 12) and the new punch box set as well! Oh the fun I'll have planning new and exciting classes and events for all my new hostesses!

Oblivious to anything else....



Yep! It's all here - YEAH!!!



I need to work on my tan this hard too ;)! Good thing is you can't see any grey! LOL!

Cute Card & More

Well, I think it's going to take a couple of extra days for me to hit my "100 mile" mark! I did something, who knows what, to my ankle! It was sensitive to the touch last week and I didn't think anything else of it. Saturday I ran my 6 miles with my DH (who ran 12!) and I noticed on the way home it was swollen! I had what my daughter calls a "cankle"! LOL! I took Sunday off, did only weights and elyptical on Monday but it swelled back up - ugh! Anyway I took today off so I now have time to upload a really cute card I made "just because"! I had seen the fish on another person's blog and had the scrap to use and knew they'd work together perfectly! I put a small punched out heart on it's lips though to make it a kissing fish! I remember going to the pet stores growing up and watching the fish to see if they'd really kiss! LOL! Okay TMI perhaps but the card turned out cute anyway! I hope you like it!



I am off now to finish up a couple of other cards I started but didn't finish yet!

BLOG Candy

This is the best candy of all isn't it?! I was just noticing that my Mizuno count is almost at 100 miles! In 13.4 miles it will be - should happen this week! If you leave a comment telling me what you're doing for your health (we all want to live long enough to play with all of our cool toys right?) I'll choose one, or someone in my house will, and I'll send you some "BLOG Candy"! Now I just have to figure out what it will be - I have lots of ideas! I'll post a picture later when I narrow it down! So, lets hear it.........

Visitors!

We had company over the weekend! My Dad and my brother (#4 in the line-up of siblings) came up to just "get away" for a bit! I love having company so it was great to have them visit! Here's a couple of pictures to share of us!

Breanna and my brother William



Me and my Dad





This is one way to make up for a cancelled show! LOL! I love my stamps but this was a great weekend anyway!

Happy Birthday Breanna!

Happy Birthday to my youngest!




Today my youngest turns 14! Scariest thing now is also the fact in 2 short months I have to send her off to high school! Where did the time go?! I guess you can look at my blog and tell that June is a busy month for me and my girls!

p.s. this picture was taken over a year ago at the Smithsonian's Museum of Natural History! I love that particular museum! I can't seem to get enough time there!

Good Things



Remember the summers when you were a child and it was hot - all you wanted was a popsicle?! That was the first thing I thought of when I saw these popsicles! Yummmy! I have always loved the grape ones the best though! I made this card to mail to my DSS - I hope it makes her smile!

I used the SU tag punch, small ribbon punch (sticks), both large and small oval punches, old SU paper for the background,and some scraps I had laying around (I really have to use them up!) I also used the magic marker technique to get the words "good things" from another stamp. This is a technique I'll be showing this weekend at a party! I can't wait!

Happy Birthday!




The beautiful girl in the picture is my oldest daughter! She turned 22 years old yesterday! I couldn't give her a party since we live in different states right now so, I'll celebrate with whoever reads my blog today!

Happy Birthday Jessica
