Well our Memorial weekend was fun! We had a BBQ with Mike's family and it was such a nice day to sit outside. The men played horse shoes, the women gossiped and Drew drank everyone's soda when they weren't looking. If you left a cup unattended for even a second he was gulping it down.



I got some great pictures of Stacey, who USED to be oh so coordinated, doing cartwheels. Lets just say she's not as graceful as she used to be. I would post them but I'm pretty sure she'd kill me. Maybe I'll just put them in my revenge pile just in case she makes me mad sometime soon.

I got an email from Creating Keepsakes the other day approving my assignment layout for the October issue!! I was so nervous I actually sent them two layouts! I'm such a geek! Here's the one they didn't pick.

*Guess they liked it after all!*

I loved this layout but it was a pain in the ass! I do a lot of stitching on my pages but this was the most painful. My hands actually hurt after I was done. I had to stitch through cardstock, pictures, and one or two pieces of patterned paper. It was work! I'm kind of sad they didn't pick this one simply because I put so much time into it. Oh well, I love it and that's all that matters.

I'm so surprised that I'm actually even blogging this close to the beginning of the next month. Believe it or not I actually got a somewhat early start on my card kit club. Surprise, surprise!! I feel like a whole new woman. This is just so out of character for me. If I start eating healthier or doing laundry regularly, call a doctor quick!
I really like the cards I did this month. I think I'm starting to get the hang of card making...and maybe even enjoying it a little. I'm really surprised at how great the kit is doing. We signed up a lot of new people over the month of May. Well, I should probably get back to work on them!!

Hope you have a great week!
