Finally an update!

It has been awhile since I've done a post! I am so busy. Between work, school and the handbell choir it seems I'm always doing something.

The scrapbook pages below are some of the ones I did at a weekend retreat. I had a great time, thanks to Sue Matthews. And I met and made some great new scrapbooking friends.

The cards are from a Saturday Wendy McKenzie and Kathy Brennan came over. We decided to get together to make some cards. We are going to do it again. It was fun. Bob made us dinner. Next time, Audrey's making us lasagna! I have a great husband and kids!!

I hope you enjoy my post!




Pictures from Christmas decorating, the house, the Christmas ducks and Christmas morning.

Pictures taken at church on Christmas Eve.

More Christmas Eve pictures. It's a photo shoot

after the service every year!

The pictures below are the pictures we received in cards. I love getting them and started scrapbooking them years ago. This year, it took 4 pages!

Bob, Audrey, my mom (Penny Harmer) and I went to the Franklin County Conservatory for the butterfly exhibit. I love this exhibit (and my page!!).

Miscellaneous pictures.

Used the Teardrop Cricut Cartridge for the font on this page.

Don't look too hard at the cards - one may be coming to you!

I love butterflies and flowers! Can you tell!?!?

Oh, yeah! And martinis!! YUMMY!!

Blog Candy

Hey! Kathy @ http://thedailymarker.blogspot.com/ is giving away some blog candy. All the items in the picture below are being given away!

More ducklings

We're up to 3 ducklings - Merry, Christmas and Noel. They are all so cute. I'm so glad Noel hatched because Christmas was by itself, all lonely. The last 2 are just being fed by humans, not a lot of contact. Hopefully this science fair project will win a regional (or dare we hope) state award!!

Baby duck

We have our first duckling that hatched. It's name is Merry and came out of the egg around 4am on Christmas Eve. So sweet!!!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!!

Evan and I are decorating the Christmas tree. Oh, how I love the holiday season!!

Spent 2 1/2 hours this morning at Scrappin' Creations with Stacie. I did the December scrapbook layout. No it wasn't that hard - - I sat around and chatted!

I'll post pictures later!

Christmas is Around the Corner

Can you believe Christmas is only 54 days away? Has anyone started Christmas shopping? I'm trying to find things to make for friends and family. What to do, what to do!!

The budget at BCBSSC is almost over. I almost have my life back. I can't wait until Tuesday - hopefully the Sellers meeting will go well.

Lutheran Youth Encounter

We have 2 people from the Lutheran Youth Encounter staying with us. They came in on Thursday night and are leaving Saturday morning. Matt Plank and Heaven Harper are both awesome young adults serving God. The Turnmires wish them Godspeed.
