"Extreme Adventure"

9:08 PM | by Laura

Here is the picture taken of where Rachel was last week in Alberta on her Glacier expedition. Suffice it to say that she came home a few days early because there was a blizzard, and it was an extremely difficult expedition. She still has to do the journaling for it, but I did get to use the new SEI line and I love the colors.

So ladies, I outdid myself with three pages wahoo! Now I have to get busy and finish the calendar for the calendar class I will be teaching Nov 15....not to mention our crop weekend coming up.....or Trisha the following weekend. Oh, the fun! See you in the store.

I have wanted to do a page about Jenna and her attributes for a long time and finally finished the page yesterday. Most of these photos are old ones (ancient in her books...lol) but they still describe her character to a tee. In fact, I thought of more and ran out of room so I quit. Anyway, the page is doe with the new Granola line from Basic Grey...go figure. My favorite of favorite paper companies. They rock! And two of their new chipboard lines. Yup. Still like the stuff.

"I've Been Tagged"

9:59 PM | by Laura

Okay, so you can tell by my title that I have obviously been tagged by a sweet, hilarious, ex-friend (just kidding) and now I am supposed to come up with 6 facts about me that you guys are supposed to find interesting. You would think this wouldn't be too hard, after all, I.....wait, I will put this one down as my first fact.

1). I love to talk...lots...to everybody. You guys know it, when you come into the store, my jaws are usually flapping. That's just me.

2). I am just a tad sarcastic....okay alot. I find the older I get, the more sarcastic I am. I wonder why?

3). I had a great uncle who served in WWII who was German, but fought against Hitler because he hated what Hitler was doing. He survived the war and came home, wouldn't talk about it, but I am thankful today that he fought for my freedom. Don't know if I moved away from Canada, if I could fight against my birth country...

4). I am a terrible procrastinator. Bad. That is something I inherited but I won't say from which parent...lol. I hate that trait, but I still haven't been able to change that one. Still working on it though.

5). Like to play practical jokes on people....fun ones.

6). I am an arachnophobic. Period. I hate eight legged crawly things. I haven't figured out why God created them. Oh, I know that they eat mosquitoes and all that, but I am sure for how smart God is, He could have come up with something less.....offensive???? They are icky!?!

Rules:

1). Link the person that tagged you.

2).Mention the rules on your own blog.

3). List 6 unspectacular things about you or your group.

4).Taggify 6 other bloggers.

Vren Lagadi tagged me.

I taggify: 1). Sharon from work 2). Julie from work 3). Jenna P. 4). Ralna N. 5). Rachel P. 6). Rachel Roberts :-)

There you have it. Now I hope no one is mad at me, it is all in fun. Now I didn't mention how much I love Tim's coffee because I put that one in the one I did a while back. So have fun ladies!
