Wednesday

Hi all.......I am having a terrific time. My son is doing awesome at camp. Me ....I am finding my way around Ohio just fine. Stopped in at a sweet scrap store....they were very friendly and helpful. I love going to scrap stores in the area where I am traveling. I think we all need to support the lss.....we don't want them to be a thing of the past....after all thats where we also meet others with the same obsession...hehe. Any way....hope all is well in your neck of the woods. Stay cool and I will try to upload some pics of my grandson.....if I can get to online. If not I will upload next week when I get back. Have a great weekend!

Hello Ladies....I am so excited to finally get to show you my Fathers Day album. I have had to dig for some of these pics as they are more than 22 years old.

I hope you enjoy.....you have to keep scrolling down to see all...blogger would only let me post so many pics per post. Have a great weekend!! Oh by the way...if you click on the pic it should make it bigger so you can see the detail.

Hi all.....I just love pagemaps! I just love the sketches over there....so fun to work with. This will actually be my first layout submitted. I have wanted to scrap these pics for awhile.....they were taken at the last Ladies retreat at our church in the fall. I have had this title in my head for quite some time. It is actually one of my favorite songs by Newsong. Its about how we all need friends who are on our side praying for us. Annie who is pictured with me in the bottom right pic is my mentor.....she is a special lady! Wish me luck! Have a great day!
