Howdy stranger I just wanted to stop by and say hello and see how your summer is going. If you have a second stop by and see my newest addition to the family. Hope you are having a wonderful day. Not sure how hot it is your way but we are looking at triple digits next week.

hello

Wishing you a Happy Mother's Day!

Friends

A friend is someone we turn to
when our spirits need a lift.
A friend is someone we treasure
for our friendship is a gift.
A friend is someone who fills our lives
with beauty, joy, and grace.
And makes the whole world we live in
a better and happier place.

- Jean Kyler McManus -

I wrote an awful poem;
it was bad in the extreme.
I showed it to my sister
and it made my sister scream.

I gave it to my mother
and she promptly flipped her lid.
My father blew a gasket,
and my baby brother hid.

I brought my poem with me
when I came to school today.
My teacher nearly fainted
and my friends all ran away.

I never knew a poem could be
such amazing fun,
but that was such a blast,
I think I'll write another one.

Holy Moly you are still around lol.... Thanks for stopping on through and saying Hi and leaving me some comments. It's been a little hectic around here to. Although I must say I still find a little bit of free time to make some cards that's what keeps me from going into sane. We are offically all moved in( I love the new house), the girls had to transfer schools which they are totally enjoying. My oldest just turned 14 on April 7th and the middle one just turned 13 on the 22nd. They are just growing like weeds. I'm planning a 8th grade graduation party for Ashley. Off to highschool in Sept I can't believe it freshman/highschool I'm feeling really old right now. :) She is trying out for softball,cheerleading right now she just completed her sports physical so we will see what happends.

Work is good my husband and I are just thankful to have jobs in this economy. There was a lady at my work who had been there for 12 years and they walk in a few months back and laid her off. I just couldn't believe that. My husbands work is down sizing as well running a little crew.

Other then that just staying busy I can't believe we are almost into May I just don't know where the time has gone. Hope all is well your way how are things? How are the boys doing?

Hi Ally, have a wonderful weekend!

Just wandering around & thought I'd stop by to say hello. Hope you're having a great week - Happy Scrapping! :)

Good Morning!

Just stopping on through to say Hello.... We were in your area last weekend. We ended up going to Seattle with some friends. Went to Pike's Market and then to Qwest field that was amazing. This was our first time up close and in person to the Seahawk stadium. WOW that was huge. Even know there was nothing going on at the time it was really fun, took lots of pictures. Then went and seen where the Mariners play and walk that area. That whole think in some ways reminded me of parts of San Francisco. Truly was a fun time.

Settling into the new house, Finally think I'm 95% done unpacking. This weekend we hung pictures on the walls and now it's feeling a little more like home. Alrighty off to pay bills online just thought since I was on the computer should buzz on through and try and get caught up. Enjoy the rest of your weekend and I will chat w/ you later. Take care

Just to let you know I have not dropped off the face of the earth. (just off the face of the computer) Hope all is well in OZ.

THANK you so much for the comment on Heart Whisperer...really like your Blast Off page :) Happy March!

Hi Ally, just stopping by to say Hello!

Stopping on through and thought I would say hello... Life is crazy busy here and I have not been on here much at all. Like the newest layout you added to your gallery it's great! We are in the process of one more final move which is just 5mins from where we are at now. We close on our house the 27th of Feb. I'm so excited and can't hardly wait. When we moved from Cali to here we went into a lease option to buy. Well we have decided not to continue to live here. We had been looking since Christmas and found this beautiful house that is a foreclosure and has been on the market for over a year. The price was right and how could we pass it up. So we have been dealing with inspections, tank sweeps, appraisals, ect... all of what goes into buying a house. Plus working, taking care of the kids, house work,appts,packing and I started selling Sensaria all natural spa products for fun and earn some extra money. Oh so much fun! I can't even tell you where time has gone. In just few more months the kids will be out of school and we will then have them into summer activities to keep them busy. My oldest who is 14 now has a baby sitting job all summer. ( Oh yes helps on school clothes) Anyhow I can continue to just go on and on just wanted to say hello and hope all is well your way. Hopefully I will chat w/ you soon take care and Happy Valentine's day :)

Hi Stranger,
Finally logged on after many months. Loved your comments about flooding in Bellevue. We actually have ordinances about that. Not only were the Pottery Barn folks out in droves filling the sandbags we have Starbucks personnel on standby.
I just got back from 10 sunny days in Manzanillo, Mexico. I want to go back. I am cold!
I'm actually going to try to get a layout done soon!
