School is finally out! I had such plans....so much I wanted to get done before the kids were home....not a thing did I get done! Oh well, I love having my kids home! We are spending most days at the pool. We are blessed to have two friends with pools and a membership to the YMCA so, we always have somewhere to swim. Oh yeah, and there is the OCEAN! I'm a bit of a chicken when it comes to large bodies of water and my children. It is WAY better now that they can all swim in one way or another. Ben is still a shallow water swimmer, but he does pretty good. I used to be in a constant state of panic when my kids were near water. I'm not sure why, I spent all my summers as a kid in the pool but...there it is!
I made this easy card the other day in one of my stampin moments....that is all I get these days....and I really like it! The card base is barely banana with the flowers stamped in Versamark. I layered a strip of Ginger blossom DSP across it and then used a die cut flower and circle layered with an inked chipboard heart. The words are from the set Stem Sayings. They are meant to be the stems to the flowers in Pick a Petal, but I think I have only used them for that once. I just love them tho!
I have some blog candy I would like to pass along to someone, check back tomorrow for more information!
Have a great summer day!

That is just fabulous, and I love the verbage, it is so perfect!
YOU ROCK!
My kids don't get out until June 11th! I know what you mean about the water, when they were little I took them for swimming lessons. Let me tell you, those lessons sure eased my mind, kwim?
Take care,
((hugs))

It was so great to see that you have a blog. If you go to Wendy Robertson or to Sharon Horrocks blogs you can click on our family blog.
It is great to see your children and how they have grown up. Keep in touch.
Tyler and Amanda are in year round school so they don't get out until June 27th. Ben is out and headed for High school next year.
I am looking forward to Derek being in school even if it is part day as they don't have all day kindergarten here.
