Spring Break

We headed to Ohio to visit my Dad and Karen on April 9th. The picture above is near Paw Paw, IL. I looked this up on-line and it is a Wind Farm. They have 63 windmills. It's kind of cool. It was a gloomy day so the pictures aren't very good. We had a really nice drive to and from Ohio. We did it in 2 days staying at a hotel each way. Carly and Alex were awesome travelers. I am so proud of them! Here is a picture of our entrance into Ohio.

Stampin' the Day Away

I was lucky enough to spend the day at the Minneapolis Convention Center for a Stampin' Up! Regional. OMGoodness!! We were there from about 8 - 4 but I swear it was about 10 minutes. Here we are pictured above: Judith, Me, Reggie, Gretchen and Charlie. I had such a fabulous day. Not only did we get lunch (That I didn't have to prepare or help anyone eat OR clean up after. Well not really. I did have to throw my trash away.) but we each got a stamp set AND oodles of inspiration. Check back in the next couple of days and I will post pictures of the fun things we made (We got to make 6 projects.). Now we have a sitter and we are off to The Outpost in Ramsey to see Double Shot play. What fun! Thanks Gretchen for driving.
