Early Birds

Joan and I share many opinions and a pew at church. We generally beat most others to our seats. Yesterday, I decided we needed a picture . Aren't we cute in our matching colors?

Labrador Retrievers

We had dinner with friends Saturday night and had a chance to see their Labrador Retrievers "in person" for the first time. They have grown so much already. How much fun they are!

Casino Abstainers

Kim and I accompanied Ron to a casino in Louisiana, not far from Kim's home in Florida. Neither of us likes to lose a nickel, so we just whiled away the time until Ron was ready to head back home. There was nothing nearby, so we spent those hours in the hotel lobby. Both of us had plenty to keep us busy with magazines and a camera.

Catching Up with Chef Mason

We have thought for a long time that Mason could be a chef some day. He has always liked to cook, possibly because he just plain likes food. Here are cupcakes he made for Valentine's Day.

Corrected Time Zone

I have to post again. Finally figured out how to put the correct time on my blogs. They have been off about 3 hours up till right now. Had me in the wrong time zone.

Well forget that. Instead of changing the time on my post, it waited three hours to post it.
I have no idea why all my posts go in as Pacific time when that is NOT where I am.

Scrapgirls' Digital Convention

You've heard me talking about the Scrapgirl's Digital Convention I attended at Salt Lake City, Utah in October last year. But I hadn't done any layouts from that event. That is hard to believe, isn't it?...especially since I took a 'brazilian' pictures.

For anyone who hasn't heard that joke...here it is. A 'blond' and her husband were listening to the news. It was announced that a Brazilian was killed parachuting in Colorado. The blond started crying uncontrollably. Her husband asked why she was so broken up about this accident. She answered, "That's a lot of people. How many is a Brazilian?"

Any way, perhaps I'll get time to make a few digital layouts from that trip in the near future.
It was a wonderful experience, and I'd like to go again this year. Don't know how the economy will hold out though. I do have free air miles...if they don't take those away. Continental is asking for more and more of them for the same number of miles.

As you know, I'm in catch up mode. Bringing up some things from the past year that I've wanted to 'crop' but just didn't get to them. Here is a page I started in the summer, but just couldn't get inspired. Yes, I have those days, pages. This layout still isn't pleasing to me, but it will have to do. I want to remember being at The Discovery Center with the triplets and feeling the softness of this little chinchilla. I might like to have a pet like him. I'll have to read up on it...not that my husband would let me. I can dream.
