Come on – REALLY?

102_0152 

This would be a wonderful photo if we were talking about December, January, February….but this is from yesterday…ARE YOU KIDDING ME???????  We just had tornados on last week!  I have had countless classes, clubs and workshops cancelled this winter because of SNOW – but April 19th….REALLY????  I love snow – it's so pretty – but honestly, Mother Nature, I've really had enough!  Our lawn was green this morning….

OK – done with my rant….I just had to share this card with you.  It's from Stampin' Up! and it arrived last week.  It's extra special because it's an invitation to dinner with….Rich Jutkins, President of Stampin' Up!!!!!  HOLY COW – I'm so honored…and of course I accepted right away!  I and a guest (not sure if that will be Hailey or Steve yet – they are competing for this honored spot for the next 32 days) will be dining with Rich on the Alaska Cruise!!!

What a GREAT card for a dinner invitation!  The chair image is from the Have a Seat stamp set on page 139. And the scallops on the bottom are from the Tasteful Trim Die – I just love that!!!

On another funny note – Hailey has a job now (and she made the DANCE team!!! – just a little update there – and she's been practicing with the soccer team – not playing - her knee is not ready for that) here in town.  She calls tonight asking me to come get her.  Her car is rear wheel drive and is pretty scary in the snow.  Steve and I head over there (he wanted to drive it home) – I'm giggling – yea….it's still there!!!  He couldn't get it out of the parking spot…LOL!  And I get to hear once again how he "hates that car!"  He smashed it into his truck this winter…just pulling it back in the driveway after a snowstorm – to the tune of $2400 damage – LOL!  We will definately have to get snow tires next winter!

I hope where ever you are – YOU'RE ENJOYING YOUR SPRING!!!

Thanks for stopping by….

  1. Oh no. sorry to hear about your vechile mishaps.
    I know from the picture, you’re not from Texas. Had 100 deg. heat yesterday and battling wild fires in west Texas.
    May you have a good day and a Better day tomorrow

  2. Being here in CA (not too far from San Francisco) I cannot complain much about weather – well more rain than we like, but nothing about snow/ice storms, flooding or tornadoes or any of the other ‘fun’ going across the midWest and South and Eastern states….the snow does look beautiful but I can hear your pain! Great invitation you received and congratulations to your daughter! Hope the weather will start to be kinder to you up there.

  3. I was thinking about you when they showed pictures of Appleton on the news last night! If it’s any consequence, my husband had to work 16 hours last night/today to keep the roads clear in Milwaukee.
    PS Soooo jealous of that turkey your husband shot! We aren’t spring turkey hunting this year.
