Well I have disappeared for a few weeks again but I am back with lots to share. The big news is this week is my son Jack's birthday! He will be seven on Monday and I just can't believe it myself. Here he is looking so cute!
He had more good news when he was chosen as one of 20 students from our school district out of over 4000+ to have his artwork on display at a local gallery. It included ages K-12 and we are so very proud of him.
Here he is with his winning art work:
For those of you who have wished my Mom well thank you so much, she is on the mend and feeling much better.
I have lots of fun DT layouts to share from the March kits at Serendipity Scrapbooks. As usually Kristen's kits are amazing so don't miss them.
I loved working on this months CT projects at TTS and had such fun with the Daisy D Maybe baby line and Sugared Alphabets from Doodlebug, be sure to check these out at the store at 35% they are a real deal! Coming up on March 14-15 is a crop at TTS. So for lots of fun challenges and prizes stop on by.
I want to thanks to Chris for the cutest pay it forward RAK ever. With lots of little goodies I am now ready to offer one of my own. So if you would like to win a RAK and will be willing to then pay it forward, let me know in your comments and I will pick one random winner. This RAK is really cute and includes a new red AMM storage bag filled with lots of goodies.
On Monday I am off to Orlando, FL for a mini vacation with my hubby. It is a business trip for him with conferences during the day but I am tagging along this time and really can't wait. I will make the most of my free time visiting LSS Stores and have scheduled an Aromatheraphy Massage, Manicure, and Pedicure at the Grand Floridian Spa. I will return with lots of pictures, pretty toes and nails, and probably about 5 extra pounds. So off I go and see you soon.
