{Arkansas Rained On Our Parade..Literally...}

Once a year I look forward to this
{yes, in my world....}
Holiday.
The Mr. Knows that things will be put on hold so I can join friends and
SCRAPBOOK!
I met such a *wonderful* group of Ladies this year..that you'd all
be JEALOUS.
So heart-warming, sweet, smart,caring, and most of all
Talented and so creative!
**unfortunately it was cut WAAAYYY too short.
Tornado and BAAAD  thunderstorms
were coming and making it hard to travel..
boo bad weather**


Miss Sweet Brenda, her sweet daughter and her Bestie-Miss Shiela
really out did themselves!
The food...
Oh my. The food.
Well, they were so inviting and made us all feel right at home :)


They hand made all our cute lil name tags!
Cute, huh?!!


Each of Our work space,
 had a lil goody bag just waiting for us :)

I'm tellin ya..
These Ladies just made my head spin!
The ideas..

Isn't this fun!



A notebook to put all my
craft shopping Lists.... ;)


I just buy the cute paperclip holders...
Duh, you can make yer own!
Cute picture holder..
The ideas were just
so fun!!

A matchBox!
I grinned ear to ear making this!
These are great Ladies. :)

A "Stampin' Up!" rep was able to do a couple demos and
this cute owl was a part of it..
It's supposed to be a graduation owl.
But I colored outside the lines.
I did a flower...instead of a
graduation hat..

A Big Warm Thank You to these 3
Ladies who went out of there way to make it a
great day.
Thank you so much.
I met great scrap-buddies for the future*
;)
