Jenna did Heather's Kids Class this morning. She brought a pair of jeans to stamp on and Heather gave her a shirt and washer. Jenna enjoyed the stamping but I think she was most proud of the necklace she made using rub ons. Thanks for the class and thanks for the ride Heather.
Good thing for paperwork! We had a service man here the other night looking at our furnace. He had to come back the next morning to replace a part. When he left our cat Kally was trying to come into the house. The serviceman asked if she was our cat and when we replied yes. He told us we had almost lost her the night before. He was in his truck doing some paperwork before leaving the driveway when he heard something in the back of his truck. Our curious little cat had jumped inside to investigate. Had she not made any noise he would have driven off with her. She does have a tag with her name and our phone number on it just in case.
Traditionally we think of robins, spring flowers and warmer weather as signs of spring. Last night we had someone go through our car probably looking for money, alchohol or small hand held electronics. Fortunately they were not interested in anything that was in our car. That was not the case however for some of our neighbours. The police officer I spoke with said it is a sign of the warmer weather that this kind of thing happes
This past weekend the 1st Strathroy Scout hosted the Annual Sydenham Area Kub Kar and Scout Dragster Rally at the Community Center in Mt. Brydges. Aaron has never been too successful at these events so was so excited to be invited to the Invitation Rally in Chatham this weekend. I'll send the camera with Arthur as Jenna and I have things to do in London. Maybe we'll have a picture to post next week.
We did these cute torn paper animals out of thick Mulberry paper last night at Skribbles and Scraps in Sarnia. It was a fun evening and fortunately we didn't have to brave a snowstorm or thick fog in our travels this time.
It seems like forever since I have had time to post on my blog. Not that I've lost interest, I've just been so busy with a new job and coordinating everything else that by the time I get a chance to sit down its time to go to bed.
Today after work I am going to a tear bear class with Eliz and Lizz at the scrapbook store in Sarnia. This class is one that had to be rescheduled due to a snow storm. I think tonight we'll be ok. I'm not scheduled to work tomorrow so may have a few moments to post.
Jenna used a die cut I cut with my Wishblade. Sorry I don't remember who created it so I can't give credit. She used gel pen and stickles to decorate it. Great job Jenna. I may just have to use your idea.
ps: love the ribbon we just had to buy.
I feel its a "Me" kind of day. I have to go to work for a little while this afternoon for a staff meeting. Since the temperatures are going to be almost summer like and work is not far from Grand Bend I'm going to the beach for lunch. Winter has dragged on long enough and I'm going to do some "Walking On Sunshine"
Can't wait. Those who know me well know that my favourite place on earth is the beach.
Over the next few days I will be posting some of the layouts that Jenna and I did at the 3rd Annual Scrapbook and Stamping Day in Arkona. We had so much fun. Thanks Lizz and Eliz for all your hard work in organizing and setting things up. The demonstrators and the store were awesome. Not many times does everyone who is there get to take home a door prize. Glad my boys were able to help you clean up. Thanks again.
After an intensive month of job training, I am so looking forward to getting into my comfort zone and scrapbooking with friends and my daughter Jenna tomorrow. It feels like forever since I have done anything creative and it will be wonderful for my soul. I'll post some of our work on future entries. Thanks Eliz and Lizz for all your work in putting the 3rd Annual Arkona Scrapbook and Stamping Day. (this year I'm not representing a scrapbook company so I'll get to scrapbook. Can't wait!)
I'm working on a card but am having difficulty getting the flowers to "grow" so will try again tomorrow.
