91 and holding

My sweet little 91 year old aunt has been in the hospital for the last 2 weeks. She developed pneumonia about a month ago but of course she didn't know that and a Dr. just gave her medicine over the phone. That medicine didn't work and her neighbor took her to the hospital around the 10th. I drove down and she was dismissed on the 12th against my wishes and we changed doctors and she was readmitted on the 16th. It has been an up and down time but this time we changed hospitals and doctors and things seem to be improving! She was supposed to go home Saturday when my cousin was with her while we were in Houston at a soccer tournament, but she still wasn't doing good so now the dr. is shooting for Monday! I will fly back to Lubbock early tomorrow and get her home hopefully and then maybe come back home by Wednesday! I have to find someone to stay with her and I am still not comfortable leaving her alone! She has been remarkably healthy for 91 years!!

Champion Soccer

 

A fun mini class I am teaching at my lss! Adapted from Schmilles site. So easy to do, just 4x6 and 4x12 cardstock!! Great way to use up those scraps and hordes of embellies!!

For my friend

 
 
 For my good friend in Temple, her grandbaby was one last month. Thought she might like this on her desk at work!!

Boho Class

 
I taught this fun class this Sunday at my lss! A great group of ladies, a great lunch, and a fun 7 Gyp album!!

How Many Hours Can I

 go without sleep over the weekend? Not as many as I used to that is for sure! I think I survived this weekend on less than 8 hrs of sleep and I know that I know that today! We had a great time, the food was great, the scrappin was super ( I actually got 18 pages done), the girls were a blast, and the B&B was wonderful! I had a great time teaching the make-n-take and think that everyone enjoyed it! Super weekend, great job Shannon and Patsy!

This Weekend

 

 

 

I am off to spend this weekend at this beautiful B&B in Salado.I am going to a retreat with a friend for a fun weekend scrapbooking! I am teaching a make-n-take on Saturday but otherwise I will be cranking out some pages,hopefully!!

Super Elf Scrapper

 

Can you spot me in this picture? A fun "you light up my life" class I taught this week at the LSS. It was a mystery class, no one knew what the class was going to be, just show up and take your chances! We had a blast and of course everyone paid close attention to the Super Elf Scrapper

Ikea Drawers

 

I just had to jump on the Ikea drawer bandwagon! I really like how the altered drawers turned and I have another space to store my goodies!!

cartoon

My dh cut this out of the paper and posted it on the fridge! How funny!

T is for....

 

Teysha! I made this for the local lss with the new ek letters and paper! It turned out to be a fun easy project for a rainy cold weekend. She will put this on her door and can change out the pictures!

Soccer Time

 

Finish up some more of the hight school soccer! Only a few more pages then high school soccer will be current!!

Scrappin today

 

It has been a long time since I got to just scrap whatever!Working on finishing up Tessas album and some old sports pictures! Janet and I spent the day at the lss having fun!

Texas Blues

 

A fun mini album I made using the Starbucks hot coffee protector!

Scrap Your Crap

 

Our lss is having a Scrap your Crap night and this is the mini album I made just using scraps! Each album the dt made turned out so cute and what fun we had making these albums

Out in Left Field

A return of the paper bag album! I said at one time last year I would never teach another paper bag album but I am eating my words! This one is out in left field, using the old crimper that had cobwebs all over it and some fun sizzix die cuts that just float in the album! A fun tribute to Brandan and his team that won 2nd place at the tournament in Feb. in Round Rock!

Remember the Ice?

The big freeze? The 2 days of no school, cold weather, freezing toes, and sore rear ends from playing on the ice, had to become a fun mini album that I am teaching at Scrapbook Fever! This album was so much fun to do and I had to bring back the paper piecing technique!! Doesn't this just make you feel cold!!!

It's been a while

Since I have updated this blog. Either my life is too boring or busy to do this! This layout is from Janet's sketch for this month. I know she thinks I can't do anything except red and black but hey, they work for never ending soccer pictures. I wish high school soccer was going as well as club soccer did. It is so cold to sit outside in the wind and on the metal bleachers and not see some good soccer. Oh well, it is almost over. Grandkids coming this weekend for a big baseball tournament so hopefully it will be nice weather. Glad for the chance to watch something other than soccer this weekend.

Warm weather is here again

The ice and cold weather have been replaced by 75 degree sunny day! We were all so glad to see the sun and be warm again.
A fun layout for lss and Tessa's album!

We Have Snow!!

A tiny amount today but enough to get the kids out to do some sliding down the neighbors driveway! If you look at Teysha, there is something wrong with the picture! She is dressed for the cold down to her feet, but then there are the floral vans! The girls and boys had fun going down the driveway and I bet there are some sore rear ends tomorrow. No school again tomorrow and a promise of maybe 2 inches of snow tonight!

ME

Having my picture taken is my least favorite thing to do! My lss wanted a layout about me so I did it! Teysha took the pictures and we did have fun with my photo shoot! Have to have something to do when there is an ice storm!
