I have a kindergartner.








I can't believe my baby is in kindergarten already. Man, how time flies. (She actually started last Monday, I am a little slow posting). She is loving it. I knew she would. Of course, I am still in disbelief. So proud of her, but in disbelief that she is so grown up. She is going to the big school with the big kids, holding her own lunch tray, getting actual grades on her papers...can't believe we are "here" already. Hence the reason why it is so important to cherish today. Cherish every moment, as the moments fly by way too fast.
God bless my "baby girl"-I suppose I should start calling her my "big girl" now...naaahhh. She will always be my baby.

September Scrapalooza!!!


I am so excited for this event! I am holding a scrapbooking event called "September Scrapalooza" here in Blue Hill, which is taking place the second weekend of September. It will include making a super cute Mini-Tag Album, an "Intro to Scrapbooking" Class, 10 hours of cropping, and some shopping!!!
The class for the Mini-Album is being held at my home the Thurs and Fri evenings (10th & 11th) and participants only have to come one evening. There are limited spots for this class, so anyone interested should sign up now!!!
The Intro to Scrapbooking Class is Saturday morning, 9:30AM-12Noon at the Blue Hill Community Center and while it focuses on those who are wanting to get started in this amazing hobby, it is really good for anyone who scrapbooks, no matter the age or the amount of time they have been scrapbooking. The reason being I will also be providing some inspiration and having a discussion about what our motivation should be when we scrapbook...a way to think a little differently about the hobby.
The Crop will also be held at the Community Center from 1-11:00PM on Saturday. Anyone can bring their supplies and scrapbook to their hearts desire! I will be holding some free drawings, and will also have a mini-store of some really fun supplies there as well! So even if you can't crop, you can hop in and so some shopping!!!
If anyone has any questions, please let me know!!!

New Political Blog

FYI-I have decided to create a new blog in which I can vent my "politics" so that this blog can be for those who just want to keep up with my family, scrapbooking, etc. and not have to sift thru the political blogs...I have not had any complaints or anything like that, but thought that this way, people interested in my political views can still view that blog separately. Mostly, I have it just to vent-I must get it out of my system so that I don't explode. 8 ) For me, typing my thoughts out is therapeutic, and that is the main purpose of this blog:
