Back from the craft fair...

Ok well this past weekend didn't go to well but thats alright, it was my 1st craft fair and I found out that it was the 1st time this one had ever happened. But like I said, it didn't go to well. Over 100 degrees outside and not a lot of shade. But I already am looking in to more craft fairs, I'm not going to give up after one. But this time I'll know everything about it before I go!! Other than that the weekend was good.

My hubby, our boys and I had dinner at my parents Sunday night and that morning I even got to sleep in!!! Yay!!! And I got to get some of my own scrapbooking done. I've also been siting in on the forums on scrapbookers club house.Were all waiting to see who made the design team, but its fun to just see whats going on there. Theres always something!! And its a blast,lol.

Off the the Fair....

Well I'm getting ready to head off the the craft fair. I googled the map and know where I'm going, I have a friend going with me but I'm still a little nervous. This is my first one and I'm worried about two things: Do I have enough?? and how do I set up my table?? lol. I'm such a dork and I hate second guessing myself!! I'll be fine, I know I will be, Always positive!!! :)

Girly, girl purse album!!


Here a new album that I've done, but haven't put in my shop yet. I made it for the craft fair that I'm doing, I'd love to keep it though. lol But I don't have a little girl so it'll go for sale at the craft fair and if it doesn't sell there, it'll go in my shop. But I love it and it was fun to make. I love Pink and brown together and all the little flowers that are in it, with all the little rhinestones, So girly!! lol

Busy, Busy

Well I'm in the proses of doing so many things right now,lol. This week is kinda hectic. Tomorrow I have to take the hubby to get a root canal, eek! Me and a few of my friends are doing a huge yard sale for the next couple of days. It was definitely time to clean out the house!! I guess a little late spring cleaning, hu? I'm also trying to get on the design team of a really cool web site, Scrapbooker's Club House I just finished uploading my pictures to the album for the DT call, so I'm kinda nervous about that, heres crossing my fingers!!! Then Friday scrapping with some friends, so thats a little time to relax, witch is nice and then Saturday I'm doing my very first craft fair!!! My week doesn't really seem that busy but I guess its the fact that I'm trying to get everything together for Saturday. lol. I'll get everything together and have fun with it.

This is the kind of thing that I love though!!! I love to have deadlines and I love to stay busy! All of this stuff and then 2 kids, a hubby, a dog and our house to take care of,lol. Lots to do, Its fun to stay busy though!! My oldest son is getting to where he wants to try and sit down and scrap with me, so thats nice. He loves to paint, he actually painted me a picture today. I'll have to upload it later, It's so cute!! He painted me 2 and Daddy 1 ,lol. He made sure to put purple on my 2, he said that makes it a girl painting.lol. He's to cute!!! Well hopefully after this weekend is over I'll have some new photos to put up of some of the things that went on this weekend. I'm also going to put up some pics of the pictures my son painted up.

Berry Pickin'


Well I don't write much here on my blog and I'm trying to change that and I have said before that I'm not big on sharing personal info on the net, but I need stuff to talk about,lol. I guess I just wont share specifics. So here it goes.
I've been wanting to do something, like have a family day, so this weekend my hubby kinda surprised me and got us all together and loaded us up in the truck and we all went out berry picking. Well we had fun, the day was great. There was even a nice breeze blowing and we got some good pictures. We got home that night and everyone took there showers and went to bed. The next morning 3 out of 6 of use woke up with red bug bites. Now if you don't know what these things are, I'm right there with ya. I didn't know what they were till that day, I mean I've heard them but never had them. There little bugs in the woods and they bite you and make you swell up and itch, NOT NICE AT ALL!!! So my hubby has them and so do I and his stopped itching, and he thinks its kinda funny to see me stop all of a sudden and start scratching against something or with my foot behind my knee. It just isn't fun at all. My husband picks around and says thats what I get for wanting a full family day and then he laughs, ha ha not. The day was great and we all had fun until the next day,lol.

On another blog....



I got an e-mail from my sister-in-laws mom the other day, Shes a fellow etsian now as well...stop by and check out her shop at SherrieLeeBerry
She told me about a blog that was doing sketch challenges and looking for people to participate. She told me that I should try and get involved, well I did and this is going to be the picture thats going to be posted. The womens name is Noella and shes a sweet heart. I wrote her an e-mail telling her I was interested in getting involved with her sketches challenge and she wrote back and gave me a sketch to intemperate myself. So this is what I did.
Just a note, I'm not big on putting my kids pictures on the net for just anyone to see, I'm weirded out by anyone getting to see there picture that I don't know, I guess that can sound odd, but thats why theres not really much of anything about my personal life on my blog. That might change in the future but I most likely wont use there names and stuff, But anyways.... I love to go and look at her blog and get ideas for other pages or cards, just inspiration for my stuff period. But Sherrie if you read this, thank you very much for pointing me to her blog!!
Well check out the blog sometime, its really nice!! Heres her blog creativelyyours
