It's been a while.....

I have been busy with kids getting out of school and finding a job..I really didn't want one but since the kids are home I certainly don't want to be there.(jk)

This week is Stampin Out Alzheimers. I have been busy with some of their challenges they have going on there. Here is my card I made for the Verve Sketch Challenge.

I used an image from Dustin Pike.....

Happy Mommies Day!

Happy Mommies Day to all the moms out there! I made my mom a card and a stake for outside. I don't have the stake all the way finished yet. Just need the stake! I am a last minute person! For my card I used Lauren's My Time To Inspire Challenge and Tamara's card sketch #94.Hope you all have a wonderful day!

The Amazing Chase (Updated)

Today is my daughter's 18th birthday party! And she wanted to have a BIG party! She wants it to be fun and be the party of the year. No pressure here! A couple of years ago I did a survivor party for my 13th yr old and that turned out great. Now how can I top that? Well, we are having an amazing chase. Yep! just like The Amazing Race. She invited 20 people... So after tie dying 20 shirts we have our teams! My talented sister did the shirts and then airbrushed the kids' names on the back of them.. Now onto the race...We have a bakery in town that sells he man donuts. Yep! they are shaped like a person! So, my first clue of course had to be about Heman and the Masters of the Universe. Do you think these kids will even have a clue? First Clue: This cartoon character was a prince turned warrior. "By the power of grayskull" He also had an enemy named skeletor. He also is a kids favorite here in town. But he is a little more on the sweeter side! Do you think they will get it? If they figure it out then they go to the bakery and eat a Heman! lol
This is just the start to their many destinations! I am making a giant cookie and decorating it like a million dollar check for the winners. I will take pics and post them a little later. Also, they have to do this on foot! No cheating with their cars!



Well It's over now......Whew! They all had fun! My job is done....They had a little trouble but they all did good~ The blue team stayed in the lead for a bit. But pink was right behind them...But the best was the orange who was in last..They were the first to the final destination! Here are some pics......

Prom

Here are some pictures I took of my girls at prom. Kara is a freshman and got asked 2 days before prom....Talk about a hectic 2 days. My older daughter was in the mall shopping and I told her Kara needs a dress. After many pics via cell phone we decided on the purple one. We thought it was going to be too big cuz it was a size 3...But it fit her perfectly....
