Go Big Blue!
Friday was our last night of Vacation Bible School for this year and we were supposed to wear something from our favorite sports team. Kadence was the cutest little UK Cheerleader! However, what made it even more special was that this was her Mommy's outfit almost 17 years ago!
I was so happy when I pulled it out and saw it was a size 4!
I am hoping for some serious scrap time today!
Thanks for stopping by..

Vacation Bible School
I won't be posting any artwork for a few days. Our church is having our annual "Vacation Bible School" this week and Richard and I are leading the music, so its busy, busy, busy. Bible school is always so much fun but this year its even more fun to me because it is Kadence's first year to attend and she loved it!
Here she is getting into music class!
Have a great day!

Father's Day Layout
While I was having my coffee this morning, I decided to get ahead of the game and put together my Father's Day Layout. This is from a class at my LSS in Georgetown. I am not sure of the line of paper that was used but I am pleased with how it came out.
I have to admit that Father's Day is kinda tough for me since my own Father passed away several years ago. I really miss hanging out with him but I take great comfort in knowing that he now resides with my heavenly father in paradise!
Have a great weekend!

Wacky Friend-Time!
My long lost friend/sister/confidant/kindred spirit, Missy came over to visit on Sunday and since we had not had any good quality clowning around time in forever, we made up for it by posing gracefully for these awesome, professional quality pics!
One More
There are several more, but I prefer to keep a bit of my integrity intact! LOL
I love you Missy and I am so glad we got to chat and goof!!
Everyone have a great day and call an old friend!

Happy Healing
Here is a cute get well card I made a couple days ago. The pattern is from the new "Wishes" card pattern book from CTMH. This one uses the "Boom-Di-Ada" Creative Basics paper pack and was colored with watercolor pencils, then a blending pen.
Thats all for now, have to start getting ready for Church.
Spend some time today praising our Lord.

Mother's Day Page (Again)
I posted my Mother's day page awhile back from a kit that I bought and it was just ok to me. On our way back from Shaker Village last week, we stopped in Georgetown at "Scrap, Paper, Scizzors" which is a to cool scrap store ran by Melissa.
This pic is the kit from their Mother's Day class.
I "lovey" this page so much more, maybe its the pink??
Anyway, I will just add the first layout to Kadence's album.
Happy Wednesday,

Happiness Layout
My Stampin-Up demonstrator and friend, Lori, had a scrapbooking workshop last Friday night and I was so excited when I got the email because she is so talented! Unfortunately, I could not attend because I was having a workshop of my own. Lori was kind enough to make me up a kit and do all the stamping (Thanks Lori!) I put the layouts together Sunday afternoon and I absolutely love them. I decided to use these pics from our getaway last week because all of the colors just looked so great together. If I looked wiped out in the pics, its because I am! In an effort to keep my exercise program up, I hiked, swam, and even worked out in the hotel fitness room while we were away.
Hope your weekend is great,

Back Home!
We had a great little getaway and are now back home. Here are a few pics.
In the first one, we were in the upstairs of the Old Talbott Tavern in Bardstown, KY.
Talbott Tavern is said to be the oldest western stagecoach stop in America as the westward expansion brought explorers from the east into Kentucky. According to legend, figures straight from the history books sought lodging here during their travels; as a young boy Abraham Lincoln and his family stayed here, Gen. George Rogers Clark, Daniel Boone, and exiled French King Louis Phillipe and his entourage stayed here, even painting murals on the upstairs walls. There are noticeable bullet holes in the now faded paintings and Jesse James is said to be responsible for them.
We had an excellent dinner here by candlelight and then the hostess gave us the keys to the upstairs guest rooms that were not in use, and we did a bit of "ghost hunting"
(No, we did not see or hear anything)
On our way to Shaker Village, we found a huge primitive store and spent a good 2 hours browsing. I was in Heaven and wanted to live there!
We ended our trip with an overnight at Shaker Village, our most favorite place for a mini-vacation.
Break is over, back at it now!
