Two days in a row - WOW!!!

I am actually posting two days in a row. That is a MIRACLE!!!

We had a nice birthday party for Jack. Our daughter, son-in-law, and grandkids came over to eat. Our daughter bought Jack a shirt while she was in Cancun a few weeks ago. Unfortunately the men in Mexico are built smaller than our US men so the shirt didn't fit. Our granddaughters got him a pair of Dockers and a polo shirt. I think they'll fit. Of course to top the night off we had an ice cream cake from DQ. It was really good.

Today we're going to a few garage sales. There is one that is advertising scrapbook supplies. We're heading there for sure.

I made some really cute boxes for my youngest granddaughter's teachers. Did I take pictures? Of course not. I am so bad at remembering to take pictures of my work before I give them away. I do have some cards that I will take pics of and get posted.

I spent yesterday painting my youngest granddaughter's bedroom. I thought I would be sore but I'm not. I will finish it up later today.

Off to find some great bargains!!

I've jumped on the blog bandwagon

May 31, 2007 -- I've seen all the posts on the Close To My Heart Yahoo! groups about blogs so I thought I'd jump on the blog bandwagon.

Today is my husband's birthday! We eat out so much that part of his birthday gift is that I will cook at home. We're going to have pot roast and all the traditional goodies. Our daughter, her husband and their three boys will be coming over to enjoy it with us.

I haven't done a whole lot of scrapbooking but I do a whole lot of looking for ideas. I know when I do start it's going to be so much FUN!!! I'm looking forward to sharing. I did make some goodie boxes for my granddaughter's teachers. Nothing fancy but it was fun making them.

Summer begins for my girls (we're raising our granddaughters) today. Neither are really looking forward to their last day. They both like school and socializing with their friends. I'm not really looking forward to it either. I'm too old to have to entertain an 11 year old and 10 year old all day every day!!!!

I guess that's it for my first post. We'll see how this works.

Blessings,
