Hi everyone!

Hi everyone, sorry it has taken me a little bit longer to get back on here than I thought it would... You see after I got home I came down with some nasty bug and I have been laid up in bad for the last couple of days and now I can not sleep...:0( Well, I did sleep for almost two days straight so that maybe why I can not sleep now...

My grandmothers service was very nice... I also got to catch up with my family face to face which is always nice... My brother I think has gotten taller but, maybe that is just my imagination... My father has taken care of my grandma for so long that I am not sure what he will do with himself now... I hope find someone to fall madly in love with and spend many years happily ever after...

The weather last week in M.I. was awful muggy...:0p

Linda~ thanks for the Anniversary card!
Stac~ thanks for the Sympathy card...

More as soon as I feel better... I am getting sleepy now and need to go back to bed and rest....

It is a very sad day!

It is a very sad day today....:0( My grandmother passed away just a few hours ago... She would have been 90 next Monday.... She really did live a good long life but, she will truly be missed by all whom she touched....

She always loved to tell me story's about when I was young and I would sit on her lap in the kitchen and play cards with her... She would tell me how I would take all the cards say they were mine and cheat, she always laughed after she told me it... LOL
She really did love with all of her heart and to feel love like that just once in your life makes you blessed.... I do not remember those days but, I remember the love that she had for me, how she hugged me tight and kissed my cheeks first thing every time I have been home to see her..... She had this sparkle in her eyes and the best smile, I have been told that I have that same sparkle and a great smile too...
We both also have a raised mole on the left side of our faces... Hers was a little closer to her ear and mine is on my cheek... She told me once that her mother had one as well and it was even closer to her ear than hers was... I laughed and told her great if I ever have kids it will be on their nose... It made her laugh...

I hope that she knew just how much I loved her....

This photo is from the last time I was home in MI. this is my grandma and I...

May you rest in peace..... Gram....:0)

Thank you, to my sister...

A Thank you, to my sister and her DH... My sister and her husband helped me to get my beloved treadmill from Landice $$$$... I work for them and they went ahead and paid me in advance so, that I could get my treadmill that I am working out on five days a week...:0) Today I went 2 miles in 31:08 but, I finished out to my 36 min. goal I just went a bit slower after I hit 2 miles...:0) The funny thing is that I feel good no great after I am done...:0) I am glad that I am over the lay on the bed and pant like a dog and feel as if I am dyeing faze... Endurance baby!...
So, sis if you are still reading my blog thank you and you will soon be getting this card...:0)
P.S. yes, that is me on the wheel....hehehehe

I have a few things to show you...

I have been working hard on a few things for our niece... She and her husband are going to have their first baby in a few months... She has been feeling rather BIG and I sent her this first card to tell her that she looks beautiful and that she should cherish this time because it will go fast... In case you did not guess I will soon be the great auntie to a baby girl...:0)


These cards I made one for the granny to be and the other for the mommy to be... The Pink and brown was for the mommy to be... The Idea for the cards came from... http://laurenm.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com/author/mytime/

http://laurenm.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com/2008/02/05/create-your-own-onesie-card-tutorial-and-important-note-please-read/

I also found this little beauty while visiting her blog as well but, I made mine for a girl... Also I rolled just one so that you could read the onesies tag I placed that one in the center...

I made her the announcement's to send out after the baby is born seen at the right in front of the shower invite I took my colors from the shower invite... And the an inside view...

Auntie (me) also went a bought a few clothes for the baby as well and it was a good thing that her great uncle came along or, I would have gone over board...:0)
