Well a lot has happened since I last updated my blog, which was only a couple of weeks ago. My daughter gave birth to a lovely little girl, Vivienne. She is such a doll baby. I am working on a digital design of her first day in the world and hope to have it done by next weekend. I was in Boston most of last week and I can't even believe how much it has changed. I stayed at a hotel on the waterfront. I thought getting around the city would have been really easy given that I went to school and worked in the city. Was I in for a surprise. I did get to eat one of my favorite restaurant's Pier 4 and was so excited when the waitress came to the table with a hot popover. It brought back the memories of going there as a child with my parents.
I have uploaded a digital scrapbook page that I did of Slater and Sophia, enjoy.
Wow can't believe that Oct. is almost over and Halloween is just around the corner. I was hoping that I would have been able to meet my new grandchild this weekend but she just isn't ready to join us yet. I hope that everyone has a "Happy Halloween".
With Halloween just around the corner I have been diligently working on my greeting cards. I was hoping I would have been done this weekend, but that didn't happen. I must say though that I sure had fun working on them and going through all of the trinkets and ephemera that I have collect throughout the year. I also have been working on a Halloween themed altered book and as soon as it is done I will post some pictures of it. You would never know that I was never really into Halloween, but for the last couple of years I have really enjoyed working on Halloween related projects. I even decided to dedicate a page in my Italian alphabet journal to Halloween.
Can you believe that we are in October already......I really don't know where the summer went. Tomorrow I am taking a class instructed by the world renowned Laura McCabe. I'm really excited. I haven't seen Laura for over 2 years, you would never know that we live within 10 miles of each other. The time seems to just fly by. I just finished a sterling silver necklace which I will post to the web site later in the week. I started working on a Halloween altered book and can't wait to see what it is going to look like when it's done; I just hope it gets done this year. Well time to call it a day. I am posting a digital design of little Miss. Sophia in her witches costume from last Halloween.
Well another week has gone by and we are almost in Oct. can you believe it. I spent Friday night with Slater and Sophia, and we had a great time. We made pizza, and hung out. Today Paul and I spent the entire day looking for a shower curtain and some new bathroom rugs. I will be so glad when this bathroom remodeling is done. I don't think I can bare going into another hardware store!! When I got home I found this picture of Slater wearing his Halloween costume so I decided that I would see what I could do with it. Well it's time for me to go to bed. Goodnight.
Well I am loading a layout to illustrate another ATC that I did for this weeks trade. I really wish that I could spend some more time on this but between working all day in addition to being in the middle of having our bathroom completely remodeled it's been a little crazy around here. All of the walls have been knocked down and the only thing left standing is the tub and shower, which comes down tomorrow. I have been wanting to do this for such a long time and even though it is a mess I am really excited. The greatest part of the day was when I came home and Paul had a really nice surprise for me. He made me this wonderful steak dinner with potatoes, salad and fresh bread. What a treat!
