Scrappin Fundraiser

Hey all you scrappers- listen up....
My friend Dottie is organizing a scrapbooking fundraising event at St.Paul's Lutheran Church in Aberdeen on December 1st for a 14 year old who has been diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma. She is doing an AMAZING job- You need to check out her blog at www.croppin4acause.blogspot.com because the donations she has received for this event are incredible!! She has donations from Ali Edwards (yes, THE Ali Edwards from Creating Keepsakes) but that's only the beginning, there's also Donna Downey, Tim Holtz and many more!! There will be a silent auction with a lot of the donated items- I know all you die-hard scrappers will not want to miss this- you better hold your spot ASAP and it's only $20 and the food she has gotten donated from local businesses is way awesome. All the information you need is on the blog or you can get in touch with me. This is going to be an FANTASTICALLY FUN TIME and all for a GOOD CAUSE!!!

I'm baaack! I haven't stopped bloggin, it's just been busy. I love this picture of Allie's field hockey team praying before their game- it reminds me that there still is prayer in public schools!! This was their last regular season game- they start regional tournaments next week. This was the senior game where they do a ceremony for the senior players- I'm going to miss this!
Scott moved home a couple weeks ago and is now getting ready to move to Exton, PA to attend Volkswagon Academy for 4 months and then they will employ him when he is finished- HOPEFULLY, near home, but we don't know. This was homecoming weekend for Allie and she had the time of her life. Her very good friend, Bethany was homecoming queen. I had to laugh when Allie was telling us that they got home to Bethany's house after homecoming and were locked out and Bethany had to crawl through the doggy door- too funny! Allie also did a presentation about her mission trip to the WELCA (women of the Evang. Lutheran Church of America) ladies at our church on Saturday. She did such a good job that the pastor asked her to do it in front of the whole church on December 2nd, so come see it if you can. Also, some of you received my e-mail, but for those of you who didn't, my friend Dottie is organizing a scrapbooking fundraiser for her son's (Kyle) friend (Brandy Foehrkohb) who was just diagnnosed with Hodgkins lymphoma. Please check out her blog at: croppin4acause.blogspot.com and try to attend or make a donation.

Scrappers Block??

I discovered a great new site for scrappers block- it's www.pagemaps.com Not sure what to do and need some scrapping inspiration- check it out- it's great!

Scott has Graduated!

This is Scott and his roommate, Tyler at graduation and in front of their house when they packed up to leave Blairsville for the last time! Congrats guys! Scott is still undecided as to whether to take a job with CarMax or attend Volkswagon Academy up near Philadelphia. We drove up this morning to visit the Volkswagon Academy and right now, he is definitely leaning toward that! Good luck to both of you!!!

Scrapbooking Fiesta!!!

Don't forget - tomorrow is the Scrapbooking Fiesta at St. Paul's from noon-8pm. A great time to get some work done on your most current project and enjoy food, friends and FUN! I spent the evening scrapbooking at Storytellers last evening. The "Shop-Hopping Around the Bay" started yesterday. They had a lot of people coming in who had visited a lot of the stores yesterday! It was so much fun talking to all of them and hearing all about their home stores and all the stores they had visited. I didn't get much scrapping done- more talking than anything! Oh well, isn't that what life is REALLY about!! I'm off to church to set up for the FIESTA and to decorate my Sunday school classroom and then on to Allie's field hockey game- they are 3 and 0 - GO LADY COBRAS!!! Enjoy your day!

This is Hoopoe!

Ok - for all of you who have heard me talk about my pet lizard-Hoopoe ~ here's his (or her, we're not sure) picture! He was in a real posing mood!
