Our family is so sad....

We lost Deke's big brother Dan.  He was an awesome man!!  Our hearts are heavy!  He will be greatly missed by so many people that he has touched over the years.  OH how I love his smile here in this photo of him.  He was such an intelligent & funny man.  We treasure the times we spent with him over the years. 

Please keep Dan's family- especially his wife Sheryl & children- Stephanie, Michelle, John, son-in-law Chris & granddaughter Katie in your prayers!
 

Obituary for John Daniel Wood
John Daniel “Dan” Wood of Flemington, NJ, died Sunday November 13, 2016. He was the beloved husband of Sheryl L. (nee Jemison) and devoted father to Stephanie, Michelle, and John and father-in-law to Christopher Polley. He was an adoring Papa to Katharine Polley. Dan was the dear son of Martin Daniel Wood Jr. (deceased) and Elizabeth Ann Axmear (nee Baylor) and step son to David Axmear. He is also survived by an abundance of loving family members: his siblings Douglas Wood, David Allen Wood and wife Pam, Daryl Wood and wife Susan, and Darci Axmear and partner Maria Cashman, and his Aunt Joanne Bair and husband Larry Bair, as well as many nieces, nephews, cousins, and in-laws. Dan was predeceased by his brother, Daryn Axmear.

Dan was born in Oskaloosa, Iowa on September 5, 1957. His career as an Intellectual Property Attorney took him many places in his life, but Iowa was always home in his heart. Dan grew up in the Sigourney-What Cheer area and was a proud Hawkeye through and through, graduating from the University of Iowa School of Law in 1982. Dan loved watching Big Ten Football, reading historical novels, rescuing Labrador retrievers, and engaging in lively debate with his family and friends. Dan always appreciated the opportunities he had to combine his love of chemistry and learning with his great regard for the law.

A private memorial will be held in Iowa in the spring. In lieu of flowers, friends are invited to make a contribution to an organization that was dear to Dan’s heart: The Lost Bridge Great Banquet, 655 S. Airport Road, Decatur, IL 62521. Or consider making a donation to Philabundance, 3616 S. Galloway Street, Philadelphia, PA 19148.

Funeral arrangements are under the direction of the Holcombe-Fisher Funeral Home, 147 Main Street, Flemington, NJ.

Thank you!!

Yesterday was a busy day with the boys.  Deke & Nathan took Brayden, Brody & Drake to school last night for a Pizza For Pops supper.  I went to town & got groceries & things.  We had a short night- as semi's backed us off & we ended up going out to mark, sort & load hogs at 2:00 a.m today.  the first semi was here at 3:00 & the 2nd one at 4:00.  It was a short night.

Deke is off early to chore & head to a meeting.  I'm off to go pick up the boys & take the twins to school.  Tonight I'm a farmer again....helping Deke with the pigs & selling more hogs. I hope to find a burst of energy when I get in, as I have a ton of cards to get cut for this weekends Christmas Card Class.

I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!!
Happy Stamping!

Check out my fall Banner Wreath!

Check out my fall wreath!  I used the 'Paisleys & Petals' stamp set & coordinating Petals & Paisleys Specialty Designer Paper, along with the Gold Foil & Copper Foil Sheets!

stamp set:  'Paisleys & Petals'
card stock:  Cajun Craze, Soft Suede & Very Vanilla
designer paper:  Petals & Paisley's Specialty DSP
ink:  Cajun Crazy
other:  Banner Triple Punch, Dimensionals, Kraft Rope Trim, Dimensionals
How did I do that?

I used a 12" Chipboard wreath that I purchased at a craft store.  

I cut 26-27 12 x 1 1/2" DSP strips.  You can flag each end with the banner triple punch before or after you put them around the wreath.  I found that if you wrap them around the wreath & then punch both ends together they match perfectly!

1. Wrap DSP strip around wreath.
2. Using Banner Triple Punch- flag both ends by punch them at the same time.
3.  Stick together/using Multipurpose Glue to hold bottom 1" - 1 1/2" together on the flagged ends.
4.  I put all strips on as you over lap them just a tiny bit.
5.  Once I had them almost all on I went back through & spaced them evenly & put a tiny drop of Multipurpose Glue underneath the edge of each flagged banner to stick it to the one next to it.
(You could also maybe just put a little glue dot underneath them too by putting the glue dot on the end of your paper piercing tool or something to slide it underneath.)

  

I also made a Halloween Wreath that is similar to my fall one.

Yesterday was a busy day with work & boys!  It was about 7:30 last night when the boys were all gone.  I then burnt the midnight oil placing orders & connecting with my hostesses from the past few days of stampin' parties that I had done.  

Deke is off early this morning to chore & head to another meeting.  I'm off to go pick up the boys for the day.  Tonight when they leave I'll be a farmer, working outside with Deke.  We sell 2 loads of hogs tonight.  The first semi won't be here until about midnight- so it is going to be a late night & a short night of sleep for us. 

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

Last night when the boys went home I went out & helped Deke with the pigs, as it was my farmer night.  I then burnt the midnight oil working on stamping stuff!  The past month has been super busy for me & I'm just beat!  I slept like a rock, for the little time that I was in bed.

It looks hard!  But it really isn't.  I'll try to get pictures for a tutorial done in the next few weeks to share with all of you.  So check back later to see them. 

I've done lots of figuring it out in creating this card so that it isn't so complicated.  My life is crazy busy & I love new folds & new techniques- but they can't be too time consuming, as I don't that the 'extra' time to do them then.
I used the Candy Cane Suite here from the Holiday Catalog for this card!  Check out the cute front of the card!  It is super cute too!  This is just an awesome wow card!

Look at the little Gingerbread house from the Candy Cane Designer Paper.  

And the words- Just for You- are punched out from the set of words in the 'Candy Cane Christmas' stamp set.

Check out my Halloween Pop Up Panel Card HERE! 
My Halloween Pop Up Card turned out super cute too didn't it!  I am totally addicted to these fun fold cards.  I made another one that everyone joining me for my November monthly classes get to make!  I'll be posting it here on my blog sometime next week!!

Yesterday was a fun day with all of the boys.  We went to What Cheer to the bank & played in the park for awhile.  Who would have thought it is the 2nd week in November & we are still having beautiful fall weather!  Well we are sure enjoying it!!  The boys had a blast at the park.  I love hearing them squeal as they are playing!

Brayden & his brother Jacobi spent the late afternoon/evening with us.  We enjoyed them!  Jacobi just fits right in with our other boys.  

After Brayden & Jacobi left, Deke & I went to vote.  We saw several friends there & enjoyed visiting with them.

I then burnt the midnight oil working on stamping stuff!!  

This morning Deke is off early to chore.   He is then headed out for the day of meetings.  He has a meeting this morning & then he has another meeting in Mount Pleasant this afternoon.  

I'm off to go pick up the boys for the day.  I'll take the twins to pre-school & spend my day with Trey & Masen.  We have a few errands to run in town & then we'll head back home.  Tonight when the boys are all gone I'll be off to help Deke on the farm.  Tonight is my farmer night.  When I get in from the farm I'll be busy bee cutting card stock!

I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
Happy Stamping!

Deke had a meeting in Fairfield last night, so it was late when he got home.

This morning Deke will be working on the farm & I'm off to go pick up the boys for the day.  All 4 of them (Brody, Drake, Trey & Masen) will be here.  Tonight when the Seeley boys & Masen go home, Brayden & his other brother Jacobi are coming to spend the evening with us.
