Our Anniversary

Well our official anniversary is June 22 but we celebrated early. I had my tonsils removed yesterday (June 19) so we celebrated our anniversary with my "last dinner" and we went to Smith and Wollenesky. It was a GREAT dinner. Some of the best food I think we have ever had. An interesting evening though. The unlicensed valet backed our truck into a VW convertible and put a nice big hole in the poor ladies car. Two police officers were called in and they even came up and visited us at our dinner table after everything was said and done and wished us a happy anniversary. LOL. So Danny made me an awesome frame as a gift with family pictures in it. I LOVE it! Its hanging in our entryway.
Hopefully next week I will be well enough to sit up and get scrappy. I have lots of pictures to scrap and I am really looking forward to it!

Kiddie Cowboy Cards

For our August card swap the theme is kids birthday. So I decided to do a Cowboy theme. I have to admit- these cards are mostly 3-d stickers, some ribbon, and a few stamps....but I think they turned out cute.

Inchies Galore!

In my yahoo group we are doing an inchie swap. Once completed everyone will have a set of inchies that spell out Live, Laugh, Love. My idea is to take the set of inchies and frame it. So my assigned letter was L. I signed up for two spots and got L for both so I did an upper and a lower case L. I am also doing the commas for everyone that is playing- 13 people. So 26 commas. I did the commas 3 differant times because I couldn't come up with something I liked. I like what I have now. I can not wait for the swap to be done and to see what they all look like together!

New Baby Gifts

I have a friend pregnant with her first baby. I wanted to make a little something for the nursery that was unique. So I put a few things together today and had so much fun doing the girly theme. The babies name will be Allison Rose which I think is ADORABLE so I wanted to be sure and incorporate it into the gifts. I have the name on the layout as well is in the butterfly album.

My Design Team Attempt

I made 2 layouts in an attempt to be chosen for the Coredinations design team. Everyone knows I love that paper....especially the black magic. And I desperately wanted to design for them! Sadly, I didn't make it....but I have what I believe to be two really great layouts!

In the spirit of Red, White, and Blue

Tonight I finished my red, white, and blue tags for our swap. I also finished up my military cards. I have encouraged the wonderful ladies in my group to create some thank you cards for our hard working soldiers. I will be sending them out in June and hope that they make it around the 4th of July. Right now I have 21 cards spoken for....hopefully we get even more signed up!
