Slackin' Off.....

Well not really!

I've finished my cards for this months challenge over at Christmas Cards All Year 'Round.

I DID stamp sentiments in a bunch of cards today....2 were upside down....oh well, I fixed those! Good thing it's easy to put an insert in! Hope the recipients don't all think I screwed up, because I put inserts in the darker ones as it's hard to stamp something that shows up!

I tried tidying up my craft area. V is coming home tomorrow. NOT that she'll play in there or anything! You'll never guess what happens when you drop a sheet of rub ons on the floor without the protective coat!!!???
Any one know how I can get them off?
Just plain scrubbing the floor didn't work!
They were white, so are hardly noticable....But I have a giggle every time I spot them! Not a haha one, a rolling of the eyes I can't believe you did that one!

I promised some pics from Arizona. Man, if I was retired or won the lottery you wouldn't have to twist my arm very hard to live there!


This is us at Tortilla Flats.
Population 6
30 miles from water
2 feet from Hell

And this is the food we got!

Awesome food, and a great time!
I don't think we had one bad meal there!
Except for breakfast, we ate out every meal but one!

I will be spreading the pictures out!

I have a large envelope ready to send to the O/S tomorrow. I got him a T-shirt in Arizona. Want to get it to him before he's done his basic training. Then he says he's going to Victoria.
I wanted to go to his graduation, but it really soesn't sound like he wants anyone there!

I'm hoping to have a minute tomorrow to order a Scor-Pal or a Scor-Buddy!
Our dollar is about par, so should be great! I'll let you know how it goes!

Better go get the bed made for V! Gotta remember to get milk & stuff too. Isn't it funny when our kids come to visit, you find yourself getting the stuff they like!? If I have a minute I might make some puffed wheat squares too. They're her favorite! I also sent her a text asking her to check and see if the punches she ordered me are in! Also some foot powder for her dad!

Ta ta for now!

Happy Easter! And Cards.....

I cleaned house and baked yesterday so I could play in the Christmas Cards All Year 'Round challenge!

Here is the challenge for APRIL...

Since spring is here, make a Christmas card with at least ONE soft pastel color on it. (could be baby blue, soft pink, pale yellow or pale green)

So here are mine

I think I covered it all! Pink, light green, yellow & blue for the pastels!

Hope everyone's having a wonderful day with family and/or friends.
The kids aren't home this year, so Ray & I had steak, baked potatoes etc!
V will be home on Tuesday for a few days. Her income tax is done, and she has to sign for it.

Ray plugged the culvert that runs under our driveway in hopes that the dugout will fill. We didn't get a lot of snow this past winter, and I'm happy the buffalo are gone!
The dugout is filling, so tomorrow he'll have to dig  the culvert out....or I will!?

The geese are back!
