Sketchy Thursday 2.17 Sketch Challenge

Had fun using pics from Kassie's 1st "Training-wheel" Day. She could not wait to ride her Barbie VIP bike. I was able to finally use one of the Dear Lizzy American Craft bike Thickers along with 3 Bugs "Chloe" pattern papers (Borders, Bicyle & Mini Floral) & a pink dollie. Here's my take on Sketch 2.17 over at Sketchy Thursday's

Where has the time gone..

Has it really be a week since I last blogged??? Well, last week I was not feeling well. But the start of this week; I feel good...not great (but I'm sure that is coming). I had a wonderful President's day crafting with the Kat & E followed by a great dinner with the Kat, E, Joy & Cami Kan. We had good drinks (very strong strewdriver) good food (the bread was divine...& fries...did I say fries) and good conversation!!!  Here are some pics of this occasion....

Thankful Monday!

I am truly thankful that this Monday (Valentine's Day) is being spent with my family at HOME. Instead of the hospital like last Monday. I'm still undergoing lots of test in hopes of making sure another episode does not occur. Spending time each day with your loved ones is what counts; not just on Valentine's Day.  Receiving a call/email or text msgs from friends; just to let me know they are thinking about me means a great deal. This weekend hubbie picked up a couple of items for me but that is something that we do just because regardless of a pending holiday. So, I hope each of you will take the time to tell or show someone how much you care about them. I'll leave you with picks of my weekend gifts....
