BABY IT'S HOT OUTSIDE....Hello All. It is certainly been summer around here, get yer fans out. My windows are loaded with them. Not giving into the electric company this year again, no A/C around here. BUT the good news is that this year we have the POOL to dive into which makes these hot summer days very bearable. Can't get much done in the house w/the heat, but then a quick dip in the pool can add some needed energy.Summer here means some babysitting of my grand-daughter (that still makes me feel old, naturally) and a quick shot of my niece, grand-daughter, other niece and the 2 little ones all snuggled on the couch early in the morning. TV Zombies at the moment. This week is our Day Camp at our church, or vacation bible school. Ours is the longest around here, from 9:30 a.m. until 2:00p.m., and my 2 youngest girls attend w/my grand-daughter this year, and my one Daughter helps out and I am in the craft area again. So we arrive by 9:00a.m. and home by 2:45. Lots of catching up to do.....our day was longer yesterday w/an added doctor appt. for one child, chores, etc...and it happened to be my birthday. Yes, we have given up on adding actual years and are counting down. My oldest, 23, bought me some birthday PIZZA...yum. But, again, lets not talk about getting older shall we?!
Here some pics of items I made for the last swap I completed, Grimm Fairy Tale Swap from Lenna
This was a very fun swap w/images from, of course, Grimm Fairy tales & Alpha Stamps collage sheets. I have so many photos to download and update...some day!! Now I have to do the mad rush to work on and complete another swap from Vivian and get that mailed out by the end of the month but I should be used to this by now. Not very motivated, then all of a sudden it all comes together. I do think I am much more into crafting in the cooler weather as trying to craft in the pool is not gonna work out, LOL!! Happy summer to you, mine is going to fast, I want to hold onto my girls as long as I can and not let go!
Hugs, Carol
