I'm back...

So far as my new year's resolution/goal to update the blog, I have not been doing very well. But, in my defense I had been enjoying my last week of holidays. It was good. And now it is Monday morning and it's back to school. Ugh. I do kind of like being on holidays. But getting paid is good and working with the kids is not really that bad. I still look forward to the day when I can hang out in pj's, scrap all day long, go to Starbucks to people watch. I guess I have to start playing the lottery again.

I hope everyone had a good new years. I hung out with my baby sister. She came over and we watched some Alias and played a whole bunch of games. Jared was home until 10:30pm and then he left. He's been volunteering with Operation Red Nose over December. It's a group of people that if you have too much to drink they come and pick you and your car up. It's a really good organization and I am so proud of Jared for volunteering!! He said it was a pretty interesting evening. Lucky him!! But I did get to eat dinner with him and he played and won at Jenga. We texted each other at midnight!! It was good!!

For the rest of my week I have been spending lots of time with my family and friends. And doing some scrapping too. I'm having another open house on Saturday for the new Stampin'Up Spring and Summer catalogue!! Have been busy making lots of card and project samples, getting there.

Did manage to do some scrap pages...




And I absolutely LOVE how this page turned out, me and my Daddy.

Another goal/resolution was to do the daily cards and I totally suck have not been doing so well but, I will post some soon!!

Happy Monday Everybody!!
