Happy Birthday Party

It is amazing to me how much can happen in just one day. My mom told me the other day that my sister counted how many trips she made in the car in one day and it added up to 15! I guess it wasn't a typical day, but it wore me out just hearing it! It has made me pay a little more attention to how many trips I make in a day. I haven't actually kept track, but I have noticed that I have made a lot. I don't think I actually WANT to know. Today was a fairly busy day. I took my daughter to lunch, ran some errands, went to WalMart twice...(I hate WalMart!!), ran to the schools a couple times...the list goes on. I did have the opportunity to do something fun today tho. We had a birthday party for the Relief Society at the church tonight. That is the women's group. It is 165 years old this year! I took two dear friends with me, Laura and Kim. It was a fun time. I am so glad they were able to come with me! In honor of the birthday party, I decided to post a birthday card I managed to make today. I used the new Office set from the sprin mini along with the accents. The happy birthday is from Cheery Cat. No special techniques here, just a simple, cheery card for a birthday. I do love how easy the little accents are to use. I'm trying not to hoard them!

I love this Cheery card. I wish I had bought those darned accents now. Great colors, too! They are my faves.

Bradley

Sunday, my best friend died. My sweetheart of 20 years died suddenly from diabetes. We didn't know he had diabetes. It came quick and took him from me. Brad was more than just my husband, he was my best friend. I relied so very much on his strength to guide me and my children through this life. I admit I feel a bit lost without him, already. I had planned on much, much more time with him. Brad and I met on January 28th, 1989. We were both at a nightclub for under age night with our friends that had dragged us there. We were both ready to leave when we were talked into one more dance. That dance changed our lives. We hit it off right away and danced the rest of the night. In face, we were together from then on. I remember that after that night, I waited all day for his call. It was love right away for me. I felt something I had never felt before and knew that he was the one for me. We dated for six months before Brad went to Texas to go to school. We talked a lot on the phone, and I...

Birthday blog candy!

In honor of my birthday, I am offering another package of blog candy! All you have to do is leave a comment on this post telling me your favorite thing about getting older. :o) The candy includes a package of cardstock, metal edge tags, sanding block, cool metal border stickers, silver gel pen, and a set of mini gift cards stamped by yours truly. For some reason, my 'rechargeable batteries' decided not to 'recharge' anymore. I am quite distraught about that. I planned to share these pictures a couple of days ago, but....I had to wait til I bought some new batteries. I have to say tho, I was really afraid I had broken my camera! I'm glad it is just the batteries! I borrowed my friend's Precious stamp set the other day and have been having fun with it! I made this card using a square card base of chocolate chip (5-12" square). I stamped the swirlies in blue bayou onto a large piece of whisper white and onto a smaller piece. I cut out a butterfly and stuck i...

Soccer, projects and....Blog Candy!!

Okay, I know I promised to post some blog candy a couple days ago but, what was I thinking? The weekend has become the crazy part of my week! We have entered the World of Soccer. All you soccer moms out there will totally know what I am talking about. We are still in the little leagues of it, only one practice a week and one game. Per child of course....I'm glad my son decided he didn't want to play. Two kids is enough! It was a beautiful weekend tho. The weather was awesome. The sun got bright during the afternoon game, but every few minutes it would rain so, it kept us nice an comfy. Only in Florida can you have rain on a sunny day. It is one of the wonders of the world. I put together a few goodies for Blog Candy today. I have been having way too much fun making stuff with coasters and patterned paper lately. Stampin' Up! has made it even easier to use these two items together by offering the Tombow Liquid Adhesive. If you haven't used it, you've got to! It is aw...
