The Wedding

Its over. For the past few months there has been a nervous excitement in the air as my step-daughter's wedding date approached. There has been a lot of anticipation and anxiety, making sure every detail was in place. Friends and family arrived from Texas, Arizona, Georgia, and right here in Florida. And on Saturday, June 18th, a celebration took place as Jennifer and Jr exchanged wedding vows on the beautiful House of Refuge Beach. It was 6:00pm and the weather was perfect, the lighting was soft and we all cried during the simple but beautiful ceremony. And now...its over...it seems quiet around here now. And I'm exhausted! LOL  Next on my calender is a trip to Ct to see my sister. My son Logan is coming with me and I'm getting excited! (So is he!) 
On the creative front I have finally posted a couple videos! One showing off my altered Junk Journal and another showing my one-page-binding mini album! (Elsa from Justafewdesigns method). I didn't realize it took so long to upload onto YouTube! LOL  Next I am working with another paperbag mini, but a little different style than most. I was inspired by Steffogal1. I'm using some Colorbok paper...Green Moss I think. I picked up the whole collection at JoAnns during thier 40% off sale. I love working with a complete collection! It takes all the guessing out of most of the embellishing. Also in the works is a mini for Jennifer for some of her wedding photos. That will be a fun mini to put together! I'm thinking it will be a chipboard mini...we'll see. 
Anyway, thanks for checking out my Blog. Leave a comment or suggestion! TTFN! (ta-ta for now...like Tigger!LOL)

A Busy Time

So much is going on ...I've been BUSY! First, my step-daughter is getting married June 18th. It'll be a lovely ceremony on the beach, right here in town.  A week and a half to go and we are bombarded with details!! (We finished the centerpieces tonight!)  Next, my parents are moving into a condo. I'm excited for them! But of course they need all the help they can get so I've been helping mom sort through her things and pack them up. Soon I'll be helping her sort through and unpack in the condo! And to top it off my car was rear-ended while running my many errands! Not to worry- no one was hurt and the damage is minimal, but still! This means getting to the insurances' mechanic, getting an estimate and giving up my RAV for 3 days! Ugghh! Thank goodness the other drivers' insurance will provide a rental car. Its just one more thing to deal with. So there you go...this explains why I have spent only minutes at a time in my scraproom instead of hours at a time. LOL I MISS MY SCRAPROOM and my scraptime!   After all this craziness I have a trip to look forward to -- my son Logan and I are headed to Ct on July 1st-11th to see my sister! We are so excited! We are planning a couple days in NYC and some day trips to see the sights in Ct. I'm so glad to be taking this trip with Logan. He is 16 and I figured I better take a trip with him now while he still enjoys my company! LOL Actually he is great company - very funny and thoughtful. But of course this means more time away from my scraproom. Its worth it! I adore my sister and treasure my time with her.
So...as I said, its a busy time. I wonder if I can sneak in a nap?.....
