Yesterday was a busy day with my family!  The boys were all as happy to see me, as I was to see them.  We read, played & watched a little movie.  Then went outside & ran, swag & enjoyed the beautiful day.  After lunch when Trey was napping, Brody & Drake had their pre-school class.  We worked on numbers yesterday.  Writing them & drawing connect the numbers, etc.  I bought some really cool dry erase markers & books.  I thought they were neat & so did the boys!  It will be fun to watch their progress in tracing & doing the fun activities over the next few months at G'ma's Pre-School class.  

Brayden rode the bus out after school, so we played outside for a few more hours.  Trey even learned how to push the gas on & make the gator go!  He can't steer it yet- so I had to walk beside him- but he definitely knows how to push on the gas & go.  It was super cute!  I can't believe he is that big already!  He does way more than most 15 month olds do.  He has to try to keep up with the big boys I guess. 

Sarah, Masen & Brayden were here to visit & eat supper with us.  Gosh....I hadn't seen Masen for 6 days & he changed sooooo much!  G'ma enjoyed some snuggles & hugs with him.  Nathan is gone a few nights this week for work.....so we missed him being here with us.

It was a late night around here......as Deke, Trevor & Mark worked on changing motors in the race car until wee hours this morning in the shop.  I burnt the midnight oil working on projects for my upcoming Halloween class. 

This morning Deke is up early to chore & he is gone all day to Des Moines to a meeting.  He'll get home from there & leaves again right away for another meeting he has tonight to attend.  He doesn't think he'll have time to chore in between meetings, so he'll be out late on the farm tonight with the piggies. 

I plan to go pick up the boys early this morning, as Manda has a meeting before school.  Then tonight I need to pay bills, unpack & get caught up on things here at home too....plus burn the midnight oil again creating & cutting more projects for my upcoming Halloween Treats class.

I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!!
Happy Stamping!!

I had a great time in Utah & learned alot!  I am always so thankful for the many friends I have & value our time together sharing about our stamping & our families.  We are definitely a big family!

Yesterday was not a good day.  I finally got home at 1:50 this morning.  It was a very long & awful day of waiting in airports.  I sat in Las Vegas for over 7 hours waiting.  Thankfully my planes were pretty much on time & I arrived in Des Moines at 11:50 pm as scheduled.  I hated driving home in the dark & played an I-Spy game with myself to keep myself awake & watching for deer.  I saw many animals- 8 coons, 2 big white dogs, 2 fox, 2 possums & 1 skunk.  Plus there were only 5 cars I met clear from Des Moines to Sigourney.  I had a hard time staying away once I hit Osky.....I was happy to pull into our driveway & climb into bed.

We were up early this morning.  Deke is off to chore & go to his weekly board meeting.  I'm to head to Manda's to pick up the boys.  I sure will be happy to see them.  G'ma missed them terribly!  I am looking forward to seeing Brayden & Masen tonight too!

I hope you have a MARVELOUS Monday!!
Happy Stamping!

A fall 'Happy Scenes'

Hey- check out this pretty fall card!  This was one of the cards that everyone that attended my September classes last week got to make.  I LOVE fall (as you all know) & this is just such an awesome new stamp set in the Holiday Catalog.  

stamp set:  'Happy Scenes'
card stock:  Chocolate Chip, Tangerine Tango, Cajun Craze, THICK Whisper White
ink:  Chocolate Chip, Mossy Meadow, Tangerine Tango
other:  Big Shot, Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder, Washi Label Punch, Gold Sequins, Metallic Gold Baker's Twine, Dimensionals, Fine-Tip Glue Pen, Glue Dots, Aqua Painters

Check out my neat PLAID embossing here.  I used the Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder.  
How did I do that:

• Ran the Chocolate Chip card stock through the Big Shot in the Stylish Stripes embossing folder.
• Removed the piece of embossed Chocolate Chip card stock from the embossing folder & flipped it over (so that the diagonal strips are going opposite of what they did before).  And ran it through the Big Shot again- embossing it again.
• AND It turns out to be this cool plaid look!!

We had another fun & long day in St. George yesterday.  I worked on some projects for one of my coming classes for awhile at the hotel in the hospitality room.  We then got on the bus & went to our final event with an early supper outside (in the yard) at the Arts Center.  It was totally amazing!  

After supper we got back on the bus & went a couple of blocks, attending an awesome musical & the St. George Musical Theater called- "West Side Story".   It was late when we got back to our hotel, but many of us hung out in the lobby visiting & saying our good-byes.  

I didn't get much sleep as I was up late packing & getting ready to leave St. George this morning.  As many of you are reading this post I'll be on a 2 hour bus ride, headed to Las Vegas where I'll get on a plane & fly to Phoenix.  I'll have a long lay over in Phoenix & finally land in Des Moines tonight at 11:50 p.m.  I'll hope to be home by 2:00 a.m. in the morning.  So I'm already dreading my day being spent traveling & trying to get home.  I just pray that my flights are all on time & I get home safely.  As I have to be ready to be at work at 7:00 a.m in the morning.

I've had a great time here at Founders this year & have enjoyed my time spent with my Stampin' Up! friends.  But I've sure missed my family!!!  And I can't wait to see Deke, our kids & all of our boys when I get home!  

Gotta run....I hope you have a SUPER Sunday!!
Happy Stamping!

Oh wow!  What a fun & busy day we had yesterday!!  We left early yesterday morning to go to Kanab to tour our Stampin' Up! manufacturing center.  We got back to the hotel & ate a quick bite to eat & then left on the bus again to go to Disney When You Wish at the Tuacahn Outdoor Theater.  The show was totally amazing!!!  I've been to 8 shows there before over the years & this was probably my favorite.  

My feet were swollen & I was beat!!  I went to bed shortly after we got back to our hotel.

This morning we are just hanging out here at the hotel stamping.  This this afternoon/evening we go to our final event activity.  This event is always a surprise.....so I wonder where we'll be going.

I hope you have a very special Saturday!
Happy Stamping!

We had a full day yesterday!  I enjoyed my stamp class at Susan's home yesterday afternoon.  It was so much fun & we made some super cute projects!  Last night I went out for supper with a group of friends & then back to the hotel for our PJ Party/Swap.  I was super tired when I finally got back to my room last night. 

This morning we are off bright & early on the bus for our annual tour of our Stampin' Up! facility at Kanab.  We'll get to tour the plant & eat lunch with the employees & head back to the hotel.

Tonight some of us are going to the Tucahan Outdoor Theater to see the musical- 'Disney's When You Wish'.  It will be late when we get back to the hotel.

I hope you have a very special Thursday!!

Yesterday was a really LONG day!!  Lots of hours traveling to get to Utah.  I was so happy to finally walk in the door to the hotel.  They had a yummy buffet with chicken crepes & a salad, waiting for us.

I love flying, but I just hate the length of time wasted in the airports.  And today on top of it, I had to take a 2 hour ride on a big van/bus when I left the airport- in order to get to our hotel.  I get motion sickness when riding in big vehicles like this.....so the van/ride sure wasn't fun for me. 

We did have a fun night at our Welcome "BBQ" supper out around the pool.  Supper was good, but our chocolate cake for desert was awesome!  It was great to get to see old friends & meet some new ones too.

I was just exhausted, but had a hard time falling asleep last night so I stayed up working on adding ribbon to my swaps for awhile......I still have a few more to get my ribbons added to this morning yet.   I have to have them done before we have our big swap tonight. 

This afternoon I am headed to a stamp class at Susan's home here in St. George with some other demonstrator friends.  WOW- I'm excited that I get to actually go to a class & I don't have to create & cut for it.  I just have to show up & stamp!  We will be making 3 projects.

Tonight many of us are going out for supper together.  Then we'll head back to the hotel & have our big Founder's Swap & P.J. party!  

Check out the banner above the door to the hotel!  It was just for us! 

Until tomorrow.....

I hope you have a very special Thursday!!
Happy Stamping!

Yesterday the boys enjoyed playing outside the majority of the day.  My mom & sister Julie visited us awhile in the morning.  In the afternoon Deke went to the locker & brought home meat that we got put away in our freezers.  When the boys left I spent my evening canning the last of our tomatoes.  They sure will be good to eat & cook with this winter. 

Nathan, Sarah & Masen stopped by a few minutes last night too so that G'ma got to feed Masen his bottle & have some snuggles with him!  He was a month old on Monday!  I can't believe it!  

I burnt the midnight oil packing my suitcases & getting everything done around the house.  I will be sleeping on my plane today!

As many of you read this I will be headed to the airport this morning.  I'm flying from Des Moines to Pheonix & then to Las Vegas.  There I'll get on a bus & have a 2 hour ride to St. George, Utah.  I'm blessed to have earned Founders again for the past 10 years in a row & I'll be spending the next 5 days with the top 100 Stampin' Up! demonstrators!  I am excited to get to see so many of my friends there.  And I am looking forward to meeting some new friends there too!  We have lots of fun things planned to do!!  And of course I have a ton of stamping that I hope to get done too while I'm there.  I have a bunch of stuff laid out to pack in my suitcase so that I can work on upcoming class projects while I'm on vacation & resting.  Ha!Ha!

I plan to continue my blog posting each day....so be sure to check back to see what projects I've created to share & I'll chat you on on things I've been doing in Utah.

I am already worrying about missing my family (especially all of my boys) while I'm gone....I'll be looking forward to seeing them all early on Monday morning again.  I am a home body!

Ok....I'm praying I have safe travels.....until tomorrow!

I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!

Happy Stamping!

I'm off this morning to pick up the boys for the day.  My mom is going to stop down to visit us a bit & pick up her new scrapbook & supplies she ordered.  So....gotta run.......

My weekend was full of pretty much nothing but stamping!!  I enjoyed my time spent with all of you that joined me for stamping the past 4 days at my classes.  I burnt the midnight oil last night entering orders & finalizing parties!

This morning Deke is up early to chore & he has an early morning meeting.  I'm up & off early too- as Manda has an early meeting- so I'll be going in to pick up the boys.  We'll come back out to the farm & hopefully get to enjoy spending some time outside on a beautiful September day.

Tonight I get my hair cut.  I'll then head home to finish entering orders, connecting with my hostesses & putting things away from my classes.  

I hope you have a MARVELOUS Tuesday!!
Happy Stamping!

Woo Hoo!  I'm off this morning for another stamp class!!  I still need to get things all packed up & loaded in the car.  Teri is my hostess today.  I can't wait to see everyone & spend our day together stamping!

We had a full day again yesterday & I had a house full of stampers last night.  I burnt the midnight oil cleaning up from my class so that everything was in back in order for when the boys arrive this morning.

Brayden & Masen stayed all night with us again......Sarah will be coming this afternoon & get them. 

Deke was up early to chore & is headed to the office for a meeting this morning.  I'm off to pick up the Seeley boys & then take Brayden to school.  We'll then head back out home for the day.   I am hoping it is nice as I've promised Drake we'd play outside & bake cookies too.  Tonight I think I'll be home alone & I will be burning the midnight oil cutting card stock for the other 3 classes that I have this weekend.  I'll head out early tomorrow morning for a class & then have another one tomorrow afternoon too.  It will be late when I get home.

I hope you have a FABULOUS Friday!

Yesterday was a busy day & we were on the go the whole time.  I have my hands full with 4 little ones each day!  And then I've been stamping all night getting ready for this weeks classes.  

 

We went to Brayden's football game last night to watch him play.  Sarah's parents (Doug & Julie) were there, plus Aunt Kathy & Deke's parents too.  

 

Nathan got 4th in his first heat yesterday & got a flat tire in the B main last night.  So he'll be trying again today to earn a starting position in the big race on Saturday night.  He does qualify for the Race of the Champions to be held tomorrow, due to all of the track championships he has won over the years- so that is cool!  I hope he finds some better luck today.  

Tonight is Stampin' Night here at our home & I have a full house coming!  I still have lots to finish getting ready for it.....but it will all work out I'm sure.  I can't wait to see everyone!  I have some super cute cards to share & I'll be posting them on my blog starting tomorrow hopefully.  So be sure to stop back by & check them out.

I'm off this morning to pick up the 3 boys.  Deke is going to stay home with Masen until I get back.  Brayden stayed with his mom last night, but he will be riding the bus out after school & he & Masen will both be spending the night with us tonight.  

 

Tonight on top of all else going on today, we have to sell hogs too.  Thankfully Steven is going to come out & help Deke & fill my boots for me since I have a stamp class & the 2 boys all night.  Our meat buyer has been changing around our night to sell hogs & it isn't working out too well with us, as we both have full schedules & things already booked for our nights we are to have off from the farm.  Next week we sell Tuesday night & Thursday night.

Ok- gotta run.

I hope you have a very special Thursday!
Happy Stamping!

A little Halloween "Popper" Treat!

Here is one of the little Halloween "Popper" Treats that everyone attending my upcoming Halloween Treats class will be making!  What a fun little treat it is to fill with some of your favorite little candies,  treats or money!  (Everyone will be making 2 of this little popper at my class.)

stamp set:  'A Little Something'
card stock: Pumpkin Pie, Whisper White, Basic Black
designer paper:  Happy Hauntings
ink:  Basic Black Archival
other:  1 3/4' Scalloped Circle Punch, 1 1/2" Circle Punch, 2" Circle Punch, Envelope Punch Board  Dimensionals, Glue Dots, 1/4" Cotton Ribbon, Glue Dots

How did I do this-

• With a 6” X 4 1/2”
• With the scoring board and the short side at the top, score at 1 ,2 ,3 &4”
• Fold on score lines using the bone folder
• Use your Envelope Punch Board and line up (using the long 6” side) and put the edge at 1” mark…PUNCH & then flip the paper over and place that back at the 1” mark and PUNCH.
• Fold down to the next score line and do the same….go to 1” PUNCH  & flip & punch and do it again until you have completed all folds.
• Using a piece of Tear and Tape, place it of the ½” piece in the middle – fold over to seal. 
• Use a glue dot on each end to secure. 
• Pinch in the sides and tie a piece of ribbon around each end!

 ++++

Our life is crazier than ever this week!!  We all have a ton of stuff on our schedules.   I ended up having Masen all afternoon & evening yesterday, so it was late last night when I finally got to start stamping.  Thankfully I had good mojo!  My cards for this weeks classes are super cute!  I can't wait for everyone to see them.  

The guys worked in the shop until the wee hours of the morning too, getting the stock car ready to leave for Nationals, so they didn't get hardly any sleep either.  

Then Nathan remembered early this morning that he had some holes in his racing pants that had to be fixed- as they are inspected at Nationals.......so just what I wanted to do early this morning was mend his racing pants, but I got them done.  Lucky he has a mom that lives close by & knows how to sew.

I'm off to pick up the 3 boys & then Masen will be arriving again about 8 this morning, as Nathan & Sarah are headed to IMCA Nationals for the rest of the week.  Deke is off early to chore & then he is headed out to Mount Pleasant for a morning meeting & an afternoon meeting for 2 different boards he serves on.  

Tonight Brayden has a football game, so we'll be going to that.  I"ll then be burning the midnight oil cutting card stock.  Hopefully Masen is a good sleeper when he stays all night at G'ma & Papa's.  He has been here a few nights late, but has never stayed all night.  He will be here with us for the next 2 1/2 days- day & night. 

Hopefully Nathan has good luck this week & comes home safely & with the car all in one piece.  None of us are able to go up to watch him race....so we'll have to keep updated with text messages from Sarah on things.  Brayden's Papa Mark Sheetz & Nathan's friend Josh are both going to Nationals with them too.  

Gotta run.....I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!!
Happy Stamping!!
