Time runs at our house. We have had a great fall but it has kept us busy. I took a class to help organize my desk(ok don’t look at it today) I have made cards and mailed them to my family, they were surprised. We had fever in our house for about 2 weeks. I spend a lot of time helping kids do homework. Swimming is up and running in full force. I am back to working out and weight watchers.
I have to say it has all been fun. Know we are planning our trip home for Thanksgiving and then our trip to Disney for Christmas. Something tells me we stay busy.
This is a project I did on my Cricut a couple of weeks ago. It is vinyl that I cut and put on the wall. I have been playing with my cricut a lot lately.

Cards
I wanted to take a few minutes and make a couple of cards for the teachers for my little guys new school. We had a really good experience at the meet the teacher day and wanted to take a couple of minutes and just say thank you! So this is what I created. I used the Originals book. It is a 5×7 card using Notebook paper pack with different colors than I normally use with it. It is Cranberry and Buttercup. September word Puzzle and Thank you (D1361)

Holiday Excitment
I hope each of you had a great holiday! Our house was a little different this year. We had done all our family Christmas’s in the last couple of week-ends and so Christmas day was just us! One of my sons and I never even got dressed! We built with Lego’s, played WII and played board games. WE had a great time. It was so nice.
Today we did some shopping and tonight, I am in the basement for the first time working on a project that I have wanted to do for a long time. I am working on planning a baby book for one of the swim coaches. It is exciting. I think on Sunday I will actually get some time to scrapbook. I will plan on sharing some pictures next week. – ART WORK – WOW how exciting.
