Scrapbooking Again



I'm trying to get back into scrapping mode as Alexis is here and I need to get her book started before I fall too far behind. I've just signed up for a free class by Jessica Sprague called Inspiration Everywhere. A group of us on Scrap From Your Stash Cybercroppers are planning on taking the class together. You can feel free to join us at Jessica Sprague beginning on November 29 for the first class.

Halloween

Well, here in Florence we are celebrating Halloween tonight, the 30th. In the past few hours, we've only had 3 trick-or-treaters. So I'll have leftover Tootsie Rolls for me.LOL!
Went to Matt & Krystle's last night to give them a big bowl of Taco Soup for supper at 9:00pm and ended up staying til 1:15am. We couldn't get Alexis to stay asleep-fed her, changed her, walked with her, held her. She would go to sleep and the minute you laid her in the crib-it was wide awake time.
Hopefully she has slept today so Krystle can get some sleep.

Back Again

Well I've been busy. First I hurt my back somehow and the dr. prescribed therapy 3x a week for 6 weeks.
2 weeks later we left for vacation in Arkansas. Went to Hot Springs, stayed at the Wharf condos (a gift from stepmom-her timeshare). After a week there, went to Fordyce for 2 days to see family. I took the digital camera Daddy left me and definitely am learning with it. Took over 150 pictures.
Now we are back and I'm back in therapy but the back is definitely doing better.still have 3 weeks of therapy to go before I go back to see dr.

Lots has Happened


Well lots has happened since my last post in August. Krystle had her baby-Alexis Rose-born on Sept 9, weighing in at 6 lbs 11 oz and 20-1/2 inches long. So now I'm a grandmother!We got to babysit while Matt & Krystle went out for Krystle's 21st birthday. The baby is beautiful ! Blue eyes and dark hair (that we figure will change color over time)

Find-a-Grave volunteer

I've been doing a bit of my genealogy lately and came upon this website, Find-a-Grave. It has lots of volunteers who will take a request for a grave photo and post it for the person. Well I thought since I've gotten so much help from volunteers out of state that I could spare a bit of my time to do the same for someone else.
Check out their website here: http://www.findagrave.com/index.html

I Luv Really Reasonable Ribbon!

I Love RRR

Almost Baby !

We almost had a baby Sunday. Krystle was having contractions for several hours Sunday til LD nurse figured out she was dehydrated. They filled her up with fluids and contractions stopped. Ir was a good thing cause she is only 36 weeks. She was told to go home and rest and no work on Monday. She went back to the dr Monday just to make sure everything was okay. We didn't hear from them so I'm assuminng it went well.
