Yesterday morning was a fun time stamping with my friends that joined me!  I spend the afternoon cleaning up & stamping some more!

Last night Deke & I went out for supper & then picked up a new TV for our bedroom, as our has been broken for awhile.  

This morning Deke is off early to chore & we then we have a fun day planned!!  As we are heading to Des Moines to spend the day with our family at Adventureland.  The boys are old enough this year that they should love it!!  I'm sure we'll be on the go 100 mph.  It will be a hot day, filled with lots of laughs & fun times I'm sure!  The Wood Family & the Seeley Family went up yesterday to camp.  We are all going to the park together today & then we'll come home tonight to chore.  They will stay another night & they are going to the water park on Monday!  

I hope you have a SENSATIONAL Sunday!!

Yesterday was a busy day!  And it ended with a fun night of stamping with many friends!!  We all had a great time together!!!  I know I enjoyed my evening.  And a few of the gals stayed to visit, as we hadn't seen each other for awhile & we had alot to catch up on!

This morning I'm getting things cleaned up & all set up for more stamping!!  I have more friends joining me this morning to stamp too.  I plan clean up after they are gone & then stamp all afternoon too- as have things I need to get caught up on. 

I think tonight is gonna be date night for Deke & me!  I'm not sure where we are going yet.......as we need to return some shoes for him that don't fit.  Guess we'll then decide where we are gonna eat supper at.  I have my guess where it will be.....we'll see if I know know where he is going to pick & if I am right or not.  Hopefully we'll get to bed early.  As we still aren't back to feeling normal yet from our long traveling home last weekend.  

Gotta run......
I hope you have a SUPER Saturday!!

WOW- it sure has been hot!  I'm not a hot weather lover to begin with.  I'm so ready for fall!  That is my favorite time of the year.....I love the crisp air & wearing a sweatshirt.  And I love the fall colors & holidays that come during that time too!  

Yesterday was a busy day running kids around, going to pick up some farm parts & get our meat picked up at the locker.  I also got a little done in the house, as I've been working on getting ready for this weekends stamping classes! 
Last night Deke & I picked up Casey's Pizza & we all ate supper at Nathan & Sarah's.  The Seeley family joined us too.  This is the first time we'd all been together since before we left for Thailand.  It was great to all be together!

Today Deke is off early to chore & then has a farm related meeting.  He hopes to mow around all of the buildings & the lagoons today too.  The air conditioner in his old John Deere tractor that he mows with has been broke, but he just got it fixed.  So he is hoping it works today!  

I think I'm home alone today, so I will getting the house set up & all of the little things ready for tonight's stampin' class that is here at our home.  I am looking forward to seeing everyone that is joining me!  And I can't wait to stamp & share with them.

Gotta run.......
I hope you have a FABULOUS Friday!!
Happy Stamping!

Wow- Deke & I are both still having a hard time adjusting to the time changes & getting back on schedule.  Our LONG travel home was a killer & we haven't adapted back to normal yet from it.  We are both beat trying to get caught up on everything that piled high while we were gone.  It is just amazing how much stuff happens in a week around here. 
  • Our laundry is all caught up on & put away.  
  • I finished working on farm bookwork last night when I got home from the races.
  • My emails are all finally all answered.....as we had over 500 of them to go through.  
  • I've gone through all of our mail.  
  • Plus we got the yard mowed & now need to find time to work in the yard & catch up on pulling weeds, etc.- but that isn't going to happen until after this weekend. 
We got a little bit of rain late yesterday afternoon....which we really needed & could still use more.  But we are sure thankful for the little we got!  

I have stamp classes this coming weekend & I have swaps to get done too......so I need to be working on stamping stuff every spare minute I have.   I still have lots to get done! 

Yesterday was a busy day with our grandkids here.  It was good to get to see them all!  As the Seeley's are now home from their vacation too.   And it was fun getting to hear the boys talk about their trip to South Dakota & all that they saw.  We sure missed all of our family while we were gone.  How blessed we are that they live close by & we get to see them almost every day! 

Last night we went to the races in Osky.  It was hot!  Nathan got 4th in his heat & 2nd in the main.  The track was terribly rough.  Deke & I went & picked up a few groceries afterwards- as we needed milk, bread, fruit & veggies.  As our frig was pretty bare from us being gone. 

This morning Deke is off early to chore, go to a meeting about our pig group & then head to the courthouse for another meeting there.  He'll be home to work on the farm all afternoon, hopefully. 

I have some of the kids again today here to keep me busy.  And then we have races again tonight in Osky.  I'm sure hoping that the track is in better shape & that we have good luck! 

Gotta run........

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

A 'Heartland' barn!

This is clean, simple & sooooo cute!!  I love the way this card turned out!!  It is totally a Susie card. 

This barn is so cool & is from the stamp set called- 'Heartland'.  The heart & the words are from the stamp set called- 'Wood Words'.  
The barn is so detailed......and even very neat here when I didn't even color it in.  
I did sponge around the edges of the stamped images to give it an older or aged look.   

With me being a farm girl, this stamp set was one of my favorites the first time I looked at the new Annual Catalog.

You can see another card that I made using this stamp set by CLICKING HERE!  
I used the tractor stamp & made this card for Deke's birthday last month!  Be sure to check it out!  It is super cute too!  And I colored it with the Watercolor Pencils & ink pads!
Did you notice the Wood Textures DSP (6x6 stack), as it coordinates perfectly along the edge here.

Check out how the card opens up!

Everyone joining me for my July monthly stamp classes will be making a card similar to this one!  I will post that card later this month. 
+++++++
We had all of the 5 boys here last night to play outside, eat supper, go to the park, have ice cream, watch a movie & then we had a sleep over on our family room floor!  I know I was beat last night.......think they were too once they finally gave in. 

Today Deke is off early to chore, as he has an early meeting in Des Moines to attend with our County Engineer.  He'll then come home & work on the farm the rest of the afternoon/evening.

I'll spend my morning with the boys, take Brayden to Open Gym & then take the boys home.  The rest of my day I'll be getting all of my bookwork (farm & stamping) caught up on, running errands & packing!  I have LOTS to do!!!  My list is huge!

Tomorrow (Saturday) morning early Deke & I leave for our Stampin Up! trip & we are heading to Thailand!  YIKES!  We are dreading the super LONG flight & the hot weather there.  But we are looking forward to seeing many of our friends, spending the time with each other & learning the many new things that Stampin' Up! has to share with us!  So I'll have lots to share with you when we get back home!

I have tons to get done in the next few hours & we probably won't even go to bed tonight.  We'll just catch up on our sleep on the long plane ride! We don't get to Thailand until early Monday morning.  So we have many upcoming hours to spend in different airports & on planes in the next couple of days!  

I will post on my blog again tomorrow morning before we leave, but I will not be posting anything until we return home again.  I am not going to be taking my lap top with me on this trip.  We won't have any cell phones (no calls or texting) & no email either.  So there will be alot for both of us to catch up with when we get home.   We'll be hitting the ground running!

Gotta run now too......
I hope you have a FABULOUS Friday!
Until tomorrow......
Happy Stamping!

'Lovely Inside & Out'!

This is a fun stamp set!!!  And when I first saw it I thought of my friend Tamara, that has a birthday on July 1st.  Every year I send her a birthday card that is some type of fireworks!  So this is the card that I made for her this year! I think it turned out super cute!
I used the little flower (stamen) center from the 'Colorful Seasons' stamp set- for the little sparkly fireworks on this card.  

And then check out the cool Navy& White Gingham ribbon!  It is just so yummy......it folds/ties super easy!  It is wonderful to work with!  It comes in the Smoky Slate & Night of Navy colors.  I wish it came in more colors!

Don't you think this looks like the grand finale of fireworks display!!  It does to me!  And we saw an awesome fireworks display on Monday night (after the races) at the Southern Iowa Speedway in Osky.

I hope you all had a great 4th of July yesterday!!  We had a busy day with our family.....it started out with a short night, as we got home late from the races on Monday night.  We were up early & I went to town to meet Nathan & Brayden- as Brayden did the annual run (and in record time too), while Deke chored!  I came home to get Deke & we went back to town for the Annual Sigourney Parade.  Then we went back home to eat lunch & wash out pens in the finisher & then back to town to watch the 3 older boys in the greased pig contest (which was so cute).  We went back home to chore after it & then last night we all went to the races together again!!   Nathan got 3rd Monday night & 4th last night........there were alot of cars, so he did good! 

I hope you have a WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY!!
Happy Stamping!
HUGS-
