Sneaky Peek!

Before I give you a little sneaky peek at some of the gorgeous goodies Rina will release in the SBE store tomorrow, I just wanted to share what we have been up to here in the holler...

I put up about 300 ears of corn yesterday!!! I am so tired for I was up most all the night doing it, and then cleaning up the mess, WHEW! but it will be worth it. I want to say how good it will taste this winter but it will never last till winter for DH loves corn, lol. I think he is going after more today. He paid 3.50 a dozen for it yesterday but found another guy that sells it for 3.00 a dozen, so I think he wants to go get more. Most of it is cut off (my hands are so sore from that darn cutting and scraping) but I did put a few ears of corn-on-cob as well, as it so much easier to do that

And, I finally got to get my Isaac fix! Gary surprised me and went and picked him up...he stayed all night only one night this time ...he was missing Mommy and Daddy and Sissie Ava so we had to take him home. He is getting really clingy towards them of late. I don't know if it is because he has gotten out of the habit of coming down here as they have been so busy this summer, or if it is the fact that he will be starting preschool on the 17th as, he does not seem as excited about that as he used to me. Personally, I would rather him stay home and not start school yet but that is a decision his Mommy has made, and I know school is good for him....its just that they have to start early enough and I want him to stay my baby for as long as possible...That is selfish I know so I have not conveyed my feelings to them for it is none-of-my-business....See, I really do my best not to me a Bad MIL or Granny and butt into my kids affairs...you did not think I could do that did you? LOL

I still have not seen or heard from Michael (my oldest son) and his family. It has been months since they have visited....yes, Mom is keeping track Michael... but perhaps tomorrow will be the day!

We planted four crepe myrtles in front of the driveway, and my good buddy Denise (aka wererich) is sharing her tulip bulbs with me to plant this fall. I also received a generous little helping of poppy seeds from Lisa (aka scoobie81). This ole holler will be blooming next year and as I enjoy them, the pleasure will be even deeper as I think of my good friends who shared with me...I will have my own little Friendship Garden!

Now what you have been waiting on...Sunday is NEW RELEASE day at Scrapbook-Elements, and it promises to have the virtual shelves loaded!!! Rina is releasing lots of new "Gorgeousness" and here are just a couple of product sneaky peeks using some of my layouts.
And don't forget New Releases are on sale Sunday and Monday only!




Enjoy your weekend and Happy Scrappin!

Scrapping Today

There are so many other things I should be doing today on my 10th Wedding Anniversary but Hubby had to work, and I have so many pretties that I purchased on National Scrapbooking Day-well, I just want to play!!! And I want to remind you that today is the last day to grab Rina's NSD Grabbag at the incredibly low price of $2.95. This Grabbag is so huge-it is one that just can not be missed! I made the following layout for Rina's Scripture Challenge with the Joyful Awakening Stacked Papers which is just one of the hidden beauties in this bag! I made the next page for the SBE-Layout Inspiration Challenge . It is inspired by Tomorrows and Yesterdays by Danessa . I used Rina's Secrets in The Attic Page set and the In Memoriam Element Set by Kimberly Stewart and Rina Kroes. It is a heritage page for the album I am working on for the Phelps Family Reunion. This next page was made for Build A Fairy Treehouse Challenge at Enchanted Studio Scraps. For this challenge...

Hump Day with Teen Tude

Wednesday is Hump Day:and we are half-way through the week.  We here in the USA are looking forward to a big holiday weekend, the 4th of July!  I am sure my sons will take their kids to one of the fireworks shows in the area, and we always have a family cook-out at my brothers house.  I still have to try to get my stuff together for the big yard sale my DILs are having on Saturday.  But today, my husband and a few of his friends are meeting here to finish putting up the big 100 ft CB antennae tower for his "Bull Creek Sub-Station!  He loves to talk and there is always a listening audience for his foolishness on the CB.  That is about the only hobby he has, lol! For me, my love of digi-scrapping led me last night to double-check and finish some of the photo books I have to make sure they are ready for printing.  I added a couple of slide shows from these projects over on the right side of my blog so I hope you take the time to peek at them.  I ca...

Anchors Aweigh

In 1906, Bandmaster Lieutenant Zimmerman was approached by Midshipman First Class Alfred Hart Miles with a request for a new march or fight song. Midshipman Miles was a member of the Naval Academy class of 1907. Miles and his classmates were eager "to have a piece of music that would be inspiring, one with a swing to it so it could be used as a football marching song, and one that would live forever." The two men reportedly worked out the tune and it was first called "Stand Navy Down The Field". "Aweigh", meaning to raise or hoist, comes from the nautical phrase "to weigh anchor". The current lyrics, as revised by George D. Lottman, were adopted in the 1920s, and it is now recognized as the U.S. NAVY Anthem. "Stand, Navy, out to sea, Fight our battle cry; We'll never change our course, So vicious foe steer shy-y-y-y. Roll out the TNT, Anchors Aweigh. Sail on to victory And sink their bones to Davy Jones, hooray! Anchors Aweigh...
