This is my Dad's birthday card. My parents birthday's are right next to each other & this is him to a T. Fishing with him is one of my first memories. So the colors of the fish are a little off, but who says they don't really exist. The colorful ones are just hiding from the rest of us!!! 
Just a small sampling of the Christmas cards I have been working on. I want to thank everyone for swapping with me. I just love my bellas and the sweet ladies that have provided me with images. My favorite so far is snowbunnybella. She is just the best image. I am hoping to work on more this weekend. I have some High Hopes, Sugar Nellie & Whiff of Joy's to do. Thanks for stopping by.
Check out the blog candy from Shannon and Sheetload of Cards. Shannon is giving away this whole set for several winners.
So here we are to date. The majority of the outdoor BBQ is done. All that Steve has left to do are cabinet drawers & doors. Connect the gas & run electrical for stove, BBQ & Stereo. We still need to decide on tile, but we have that pretty much picked. Then it needs to be installed. The last thing we need to get done is stair railing on the side of the BBQ. Just too much of a hole there, that I would probably fall through. I am the clumsy one that trips on everything & nothing. You can see Zoom our Vizsla in the last picture.
Don't you just love the talent out there!!! Have a happy & safe Halloween.
Isn't this just breathtaking??? I was driving to my inlaws yesterday to pick up a bike of theirs I had sold on Craigs list for them and on the way...this is my view. The south part of Puyallup has this beautiful mountain just there. A Ginormious, beautiful amazing creation. The sky was so blue and the sun was shining. I didn't have my camera, but was able to find this photo on google to share with you. I could never tire of seeing this!!
I have started on some Christmas gifts. I saw an album done like this on the CTMH consultant bulletin board & just loved it. I was able to get "FAMILY & FRIEND" at my LSS and just completed this one for my grandma. Nic & I (Steve had to work) vacationed with my parents the summer of 06 and we ended our camping trip in Boise, ID for my grandma's 80th birthday party. We had a great time & I as able to see all my cousins and their kids. My uncle & aunt had six kids and my parents just had me.
