Just Beachy

This is a card we will be making at my stamp night on Thursday. I try to make them fairly easy to make, without too much cutting or labor. This card uses the Just Beachy set from the mini catalog and Three Thoughts which is from a Simply Sent card kit.

Thanks for stopping by!

You Tube 'literal' video

This is a very funny 'literal video' from You Tube. Hit the pause button on my playlist on the right so my music isn't playing at the same time!

Steven's Graduation!

I had such a good time with my sister and nephews last weekend! I so wished we lived closer together, we would have a blast! Here are some photos from my nephews high school graduation from Center Grove High School in Greenwood, Indiana.

This is me, my sister Susan, Steven and my sister's husbands parents.

(How cute is Jonathan looking up at his big brother???)

This is the house I grew up in on Kimberly Drive in Indianapolis!

Another snake attack...

Well, I've been MIA, but for a good reason. I went to Ohio to see my sister and her family and then we went to go see my nephew, Steven, graduate high school in Indianapolis. It was so neat. I remember when he was so little, it seems like yesterday. He is such an awesome kid, I'm so proud of him! I have lots of photos, but I need to edit them first. Here is a photo of his last baseball game on Monday. His team won the sectionals, now they are off to regionals! This is Steven (in red & white) scoring the first run of the game!

Today, we had a little excitement when Cosmo attacked another snake in the back yard. This thing was HUGE! I was relieved to see it wasn't a rattlesnake, it was a corn snake. But it was still scary. I can't hardly get Cosmo away from these things once he sees them. He was really bleeding from his mouth, so I don't know if the snake bit him or maybe he bit his own tongue. He's fine now. But I just about had a heart attack this morning. I can't go thru another rattler bite, and neither can Cosmo.
