What a weekend, let's see I picked up my new car on friday, again! Saturday my son went fishing for the first time on a boat and loved it, despite getting up at 5 am. He caught the biggest perch in 6 years. I had a wonderful class Sat. afternoon, then it was off to the Tiger's game, wonderful family time. Luckly they won!!!!!! Then Sunday it was up to celebrate Grandma's 80th birthday. A surprise party for a 80 year old with a heart probem??????? What were they thinking. So it didn't leave me much time for scrapping so I am falling behind in my quest for shopping, I do have 15 done and here the new ones are.

Can I just say that I am married to a wonderful man??!!!!! We were on the way to pick up my new car today and I realized he is my pot of gold, I was driving behind him and it was raining still :( but the sun was shining and the spray from his car was causing a rainbow and I thought there goes my gold. I am a very lucky woman.

I'll post pictures of the car later, it is still raining so no pictures were taken yet.

But here are some more LO's from the challenge 25 before shopping.

Well I had to go to the store today to get stuff for my class, and they had all kinds of new stuff from CHA in, I think I didn't think this through very well, but I'm sticking to my commitment, and I didn't purchase anything. Well here are two more LO's.

Here are two more for my challenge, aka Caroline's challenge

I think I've gotten myself into a pickle, yes I said pickle! I was extending Caroline's challenge to herself of doing 25 LOs befroe she bought aby new stuff to my "Boodle" friends and they have taken off with the idea, and I've only done two, that's right TWO! But I don't much care this started off as a personal challenge I picked up from a friend and thought I needed to do it as well, since I can probably do 125 without buying anything new, maybe not even adhesive!!!!!!! Sad but true. I could open a store in my house with the stuff I have right now. Well here are the two LO's I've done, I aslo thought this might be a good way to get my Paris book done before we head to Germany in the fall.


Ok so I have done I think a total of 7 pages for Paris, hey atleast I'v started right????

Can I just say that I can't stand the schools parking lot on the first few weeks of school!!!!! It's confusing and the new parents don't understand it, they just stop where ever, make left hand turns from right hand lanes and lets not forget the going the WRONG way one a one lane road. And to make matters worse you have the experienced parents that are not patient and cause a big tadoo, they don't seem to remember they were new parents once. Me I've been doing the Junior High lot for 5 years now, and will be very glad that my son will be bussed in High School.
Here is the only picture that I got the first day of school, let's see how it turns out I still don't have a feel for how I do this blog thing.

I'm taking a photography class on the first but I don't think it will make my subjects more cooperative.

Guess where I've been??? DH and I had a wonderful time in New York. He saw some Yankee games and I did some shopping :)

Met up with a friend and we didn't even have time to take pictures of us we where too busy getting to know each other, we had a wonderful time, ok I had a wonderful time I might have bored the crap out of her.

I bought some wonderful stuff for scrapping, I can't wait to use them, we stayed in the garment district/ theater district, so I hit the bead and trim stores hard. I could have stayed there shopping a whole week!!!!
Went to Ground Zero and let me tell you it was quite moving, it just looks like a big construction site but if you know what actualy happened there it's very touching. Saw Elis Island, DH grand father came throught there, took a lot of phots and still have one set I don't have yet from another camera I hope to get those tomorrow. Now I need to get the kids ready for scholl tomorrow, and clean so I can get some work done around here.
