Busy Busy Weekend

Wow today was just beautiful! My sister and I did a bunch of running around and shopping for deals. I also finally bought the wood to make my ATG gun holder. Now to get it made.
It was also coupon day, every where I went I used a coupon or should I say coupons. Even had one for the car wash!
I love a productive weekend, I got so much accomplished today, wish I had tomorrow off also. Darn.

The front and side yard are all raked and now to get to the backyard, but first it needs to dry up some. Our trees are quite old and huge and lots of little branches fall off during the winter so those need to be picked up along with the "stuff" the dogs leave. Anyone want to come help?

Will be doing some creating this week also, need to do my ATC's, the last two months I procrastinated but not this month.

Hope you all have a great week.

Had a little creative juice flow


I signed up for an ATC swap and you had to use your own photo, I thought it would be easy but it was hard coming up with an idea. Not sure what size photo everyone is using. So I did wallet. Hope it is okay. I matted my photo then added some paint around it and dipped it into utee. Next I added some perfect pearls around the frame.



Other than some creating I enjoyed the beautiful sunshine today. It still is a bit chilly and still have a tad of snow here and there but the birds are waking me up in the morning and that is a great sign.

Also I ran to Michaels and had to use my 40% off coupon and bought the MM organizer.

Have a great week.

Easter

Wishing all of you a very Happy Easter, I hope you all enjoy the holiday with your family and friends. I have it easy this year, no cooking for me! Going to some friends house for breakfast and then to my sister in laws for dinner. So in between houses I can chillax.


I just have been busy lately, work has been hectic. But soon it will be time to use some vacation hours!!
It is starting to feel a bit like spring, I'm happy cause I'm so over the snow. Sure feel bad for the others in MI some areas received 14 inches of snow yesterday. That has to suck. I'm so ready for some warmer temps.

I need to get some creating done, I MUST get my March ATC's done asap so I can mail.

OH AND AT www.cropperscottage.com we are having a live chat with Emily Falconbridge.
so come on over and chat with us all. It's is going to be a great time.

Happy Spring!

me bad

Sorry I have not been around, sickies have been in the house. Now I'm just coughing and coughing and coughing. But this is a good sign, since I always get a cold at the end of winter. So this means spring will be here very soon. And I just love the sun that is shining outside.

I have been tagged by Mary Jo and need to post 7 facts about me. Then I should be tagging others but how about if you all just post the 7 facts on your blog, just because I know we all will be tagging each other. Thanks for the tag Mary Jo.

2. I hate mice.

3. I do not drink milk.

4. I love to yell at the tv, I know they can not hear me LOL
