Hello

Hello everyone, I know my poor blog has been neglected this week, my bad. I have used Basic Grey's Kioshi collection to make these two layouts, one of my good friends' baby girl Addison, she will be one this month. We got to see her and her awesome parents this past weekend they came over for Tacos. I also made a layout of my parents wedding picture. I think these papers will be great for Easter photos too.

I just got this Basic Grey Greeting Card kit. I'm going to be using it tonight to make some cards, it has step by step instructions to make 8 different cards. It looks pretty easy, but I bet it will take me forever. I'll post a full report about the kit and the cards I make by Monday, hopefully. Happy Friday!

My Poor Neglected Blog

My poor blog has been neglected by ME. Life has just gotten "busy". I did manage to do some fun things while I have been away. My mom and my nieces went to the Tulip festival in Skagit Valley. We spent the night and stayed in a hotel. We even managed to go out to Deception Pass for a short visit on our trip. I had fun, my mom and I had never seen the tulips in bloom like that before they were breathtaking. The twins loved staying in the Hotel and swimming in the pool, I think they wouldn't have minded if they didn't see any tulips as long as they got to swim in the pool, they loved it.



The girls got to wear their tulip dresses when we went out to dinner, my mom made them and they are adorable!



We went on a tractor ride around the tulip fields and all got our faces painted!

Tulip Time

Here are a few Spring Cards I made for the twins. We are going to the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival this Saturday and they are soooooo excited. Me, my mom, and the twins are going up there and spending the night in a hotel with a pool, they are so excited to go. My mom and I have both never been, so it should be fun! Enjoy your weekend everyone, I know I will. Should be sunshine for us while we are there! Sorry about the huge image, not sure what happened?

I'm a swimmer.

This is where I swim, Monday, Wednesday, Friday at 6 a.m. I started swimming in November and really enjoy it, now I'm working with a small group of fantastic folks who like to swim too, they are also training for Half Ironmans and Ironmans. We work with a masters swim coach who has helped med tremendously. So on July the 17th I will be competing in my first Triathlon, in Lake Chelan. It is roughly a 1 mile swim, 25 mile bike ride, followed by a 6 mile run! The pool in the picture is also where I learned to swim as a little kid, so many memories, the locker room seems much smaller now, LOL.

April's Kit

The April I Dererve it All kit at Serendipity Scrapbooks was loaded with goodies from Cosmo Cricket, Sassafras, Jenni Bowlin, Felt Works felt, Creative Charms flowers, and soooo much more. I made a bunch of really cools stuff and loved the bright colors and all the goodies in the kit. You can get your kit here. But hurry because they will sell out fast.
