December 19, 2008

It has been so long since I have updated I am actually embarrased. I apologize to everyone who has been faithfully checking. I promise to try and do a better job in the future.
I will be posting pictures of the projects I have been working on over the last month over the weekend. I and my daughter have both been sick and that has put me behind in everything. Card maker that I am - I am still making my own Christmas Cards! Shame on me huh? In my own defence I have made over a 100 cards this year - I just more than half of those to our troops. Not that I am sorry, because I certainly am not. That is one of the most rewarding things I have ever done and I plan to continue. I now have two contacts - one in Iraq and one in Afghanistan. I look forward to the day when I will have to look for a new place to send cards. I wish a very Happy Holiday to all of those serving our country and that includes the family members who are keeping the home fires burning. I pray for all of you each day.
Well it is certainly winter in northern Michigan. We have had over 40" of snow already this year. We got another 8+ just yesterday with more on the way Sunday and again Tuesday. Finally today my grandsons got snow also. My oldest grandson has actually shoveled snow off the grass onto the sidewalk so he could shovel the sidewalk! They got several inches one day last week and their neighbor very kindly blew all the snow while Nick was in school. He was so upset when he came home and had no snow to shovel. Oh to be that young and excited to shovel snow! We sure could use him and his shovel up here.
Again, thank you all for hanging in there with me.

Here is one of the projects I have been working on. These are orgami ornaments made with Stampin Up DSP. They are so fun to make! Aren't they cute? Check tomorrow for more of the projects I have been working on.
Happy Stamping!
