Day 67, Friday, March 8, 2019

Jim sent me this text the other day.  I had him order the Silhouette Cameo 3 for me.  It arrived today!  I can't wait to play!

Day 66, Thursday, March 7, 2019

I created this basket of 12 kids birthday cards to donate to our school carnival.  This basket will go in the silent auction.

Day 65, Wednesday, March 6, 2019

Today is Jim's mom's 92nd birthday. Jill, Rachel and Stacie went out for lunch.  This evening we went to visit her.  She was smiling from ear to ear.

Day 64, Tuesday, March 5, 2019

Today is Fat Tuesday.  One of our staff brought King Cake to share.  The person who finds the "baby" has to bring the cake for next year.

Cindy made crab dip and brought it to share!

This is my sample for the last group of cards for my card swap.  I have completed the cards for the whole year!

I got all the birthday cards finished.  I also made a few using the same background and some images I colored with copic markers.

Day 60, Friday, March 1, 2019

We are having a fundraiser at school this week and next week.  For a $5 donation, our staff can wear jeans for a week.  If they donate a purse for Totes for Ta-Ta's, they get a second week of jeans!  We donate the purses and money to help further the research for Breast Cancer and to support Illinois Cancer Care.

Day 59, Thursday, February 28, 2019

Lily is such a beautiful little girl!  She is my great niece.  I messaged Trisha to see what size clothes to get for her.  Kohl's has some great buys right now!

Day 58, Wednesday, February 27, 2019

Cindy and I registered for an IMRF workshop.  We tried to go in January, but the weather turned bad and we didn't go.  We learned a lot and are looking forward to our retirement at the end of 2019, possibly.

Day 57, Tuesday, February 26, 2019

I started making a card with a new die.  It is a birthday card using lots of different colored card stock and a new stencil!  Lots of tiny little parts...what was I thinking??

Day 56, Monday, February 25, 2019

This is just what I needed to see today!  It is going to be a busy week and the weather is not making our life any easier.

Day 55, Sunday, February 24, 2019

I have seen the beginning of this quote, but never the ending.  Some days it feels just like this!

Day 54, Saturday, February 23, 2019

Often on Saturday, Jim will go to Subway and get us a salad for lunch.  When he checked out today, there were some cookies that he needed to try!

Day 53, Friday, February 22, 2019

This is the "man in the yellow hat" from Curious George.  Well, he has been showing up in the office for some reason, way to much!

Day 52, Thursday, February 21, 2019

I like this card, too!  I think I might make a few of them to have on hand.

Day 51, Wednesday, February 20, 2019

Coco went to the "Puppy Spa" this morning.  He loves to go the Aboard the Ark, but he comes home so tired.  He just lays around and rests the entire evening.

Day 50, Tuesday, February 19, 2019

39 years ago, this girl made me a momma!  We went to eat at Jonah's Oyster Bar and shared a plate of seafood nachos!  Happy Birthday, Stacie!

Day 49, Monday, February 18, 2019

I have been trying to find some new birthday card samples.  I like this one and I have the Happy Birthday die.  Maybe I will make some of these.

Day 48, Sunday, February 17, 2019

We went out to Rob and Cyndi's to watch the Daytona 500 Race.  Tomorrow is Rob's birthday day.  He got a red velvet cake and changed the numbers around on his cake!  He made brisket, pork loin, chicken bites, tri tip and mushrooms.  We had a feast!

Day 47, Saturday, February 16, 2019

We had crop at school, today.  We have such a nice group of friends who love to craft as much as I do!  We have another crop planned for May 4, for National Scrapbook Day!

Day 46, Friday, February 15, 2019

This is the rose bush that Jennifer gave me for Valentine's Day.  It smells so good.  I plan to plant it in the yard in the Spring.
