precious puppy

Thoughts for the day

Good morning everyone. Happy Saturday!! I am just sitting here in the scrapcave thinking about how I can't believe that Thanksgiving is over and Christmas is just around the corner. We had a GREAT Thanksgiving. We went to mom and dads for lunch. Everyone was there except for Brad and Tracy. The food was very good as always. I made pumpkin and apple pies and they even turned out good. I thought I would save the pecan for Christmas. Speaking of Christmas, You'll never guess what I am getting from Ray this year!? Well, last Sunday Nov. 28th in the morning he told me to get dressed because we have somewhere to go. UGH! Alright I got dressed and we went up to BG Cafe parking lot and he said someone was supposed to meet us there, but they weren't there. So we went in and ate breakfast. When we were done he took me to a house on Lorraine in BG. When we were walking up to the house there were two yorkies outside. When I saw the people that lived there it was Rusty and Tiffany Sheeks' house. I knew that they had puppies because I had commented about them on facebook, Tiffany had posted pictures. When we went in there were the two puppies...teeny, tiny cute little yorkie puppies. Tiffany handed us one and told us she is the one we will be getting. They fit in your hand. OMG! I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Laugh with excitement because it hit me that I was actually getting my little girl!! Cry because their two look so much like Mickey in the face and I REALLY miss him and ALWAYS will. So there is my excitement. yahoo!! The mommy is Chloe(I love that name) and the daddy is Scrappy( I love that one too because I love to scrapbook). The two little girls were born Oct. 30th which means I cant get her till Dec. 30th, right before we go back to work from vacation. Drats!!!! The other little girl has already been taken and her name is going to be Sassy. Okay, now for a name for my little girl...I love the name Chloe and also like Sophie but then there is Sadie and I like that too. Hmmm.

It's my birthday!!

Our company has arrived. YEA!! Andy , Andrew and Austin came up for a visit. We are so happy to see them. I think Ray and Andy are resting their eyes so I snuck off to my scrapcave. I gotta say I don't look forward to birthdays so much anymore. Not like I used to. Isn't it funny how those things change? Well here's the update on my gypsy, I got all the free uploads put on. And I even put one of my own cart's on it(speaking of fall). I'm a little nervous about doing that. I'm o afraid I am going to lose my gypsy or it's going to break and then I can't upload them again, only one time. Then I watched Emma's video's and tried to weld my name. Key word here is "tried". I think maybe I should have listened a little better about the welding part because I ended up with bits n pieces. Oops!! I think I will watch the welding part again. heheheI got my sleeve and screen protectors and stylus' that I ordered. I'm glad I got the black n white sleeve. Ray is getting me the black n white polka dot bag for my expression for my birthday. Hopefully it comes today. Not that I need it to go anywhere anytime soon. No crops on the books till after the holidays. I just got a package in the mail and it was the shoulder bag for gypsy girl. That will be nice to keep everything in. Especially in this mess that I call my scrapcave.

My new Gypsy and Benefit for Weston Legion Post 409

Hey everyone. I have had the best week. First of allmCricutMachine.com was running a great sale so I actually ordered a Gypsy, something I didn't really want until I saw what Emma does with hers. She is awesome. So I ordered that Wed. morning, then on Thursday we went to the TSO concert at Hunington Center in Toledo. It was more than AWESOME!!! We met Toni Brown and her daughter Teresa and a friend at Spaghetti Warehouse at 5:30 had a really good supper then went to the concert. Ray and I had put in for a vacation day on Friday but at the last minute Randy asked Ray to come in because Grunt had an appt. and wouldn't be there to take his place. Grrr I stayed home anyway to get ready for Saturdays scrapbooking at the Legion. My Gypsy came in the mail on Friday, now what to do with it? That's the $100 question. Friday night I took my stuff up to the Legion to set up. You see I'm having a benefit crop for the Legion. All the profits from registrations is going to them. I have 11 people registered including, Amber, Ann, Kim, Cindy, Terri, Sunshine, Addy, Scarlet, Emilia, Melissa Davis Yates, and myself. Unfortunately Cindy got sick and couldn't come(missed you Cindy). I had a project with coasters for everyone to do and goody bags for all. For the two little girls I also put a princes pez dispenser in their bag. It was a great time and I think the legion appreciated it. Thanks go out to all who participated. So today what am I doing? Trying to figure out how to put the other 5 free cart. downloads on the Gypsy. I figured out the first two but that's all I got for now. Have a great rest of the weekend. It's kind of chilly here today but the last two days were beautiful. Enjoy!! Oh and Happy scrappin'

What a week

Oh my what a week. I went to the dentist and he fixed my front teethe. They look like they used to. I also need to have the root tips of two teethe removed plus I can either have a root canal done or get this other one pulled. Well,I think I've decided on the root canal but I want to get it done before we go to Georgia next week so I can eat at Lady and Sons(Paula Deens place) and Rays moms fried chicken. I tried to call Friday to set up an appt. but they were closed so now I have to work myself up to it again Monday,ugh!Today Ray and Jim tried to put new parts on my car to get it ready to go,but the part Ray bought a while ago is the wrong one. So now they have order another from the place Jim got the right part for the other side from. Goodness. I have been cleaning the house trying to get ready for Matt and Mandy. They are going to stay here while we're gone. Thank goodness!! I really want to cut out a gator and make a page for Okefenokee Swamp. Ray wants to go there and take a boat ride. We were there in '99 I think. It's in Waycross GA. And there are lots and lots of gators there.ttfn

Happy Friday everyone!!

WooHoo!! I did it, I cut with my expression. Thats pretty good considering I've only had it for what, three or four weeks now. hahaha I cut a cute little kitty cat. I used my create a critter cartridge. I think I might just play with it some more today. Ooo it's alot different than my little bug. I think I've said that 100 times. Well, hope you all have a great weekend. We are going to Mandy and Matts for breakfast tomorrow, then no plans till Sunday night we go to mom and dads for ribs. WooHoo And... hopefully only two weeks till vacation(hopefully).
