 I know its been a busy weekend for me, but I am happy to report I have two LO's almost done, jut waiting on one little thing here or there to complete them.  If I can get two more done this weekend, I will be happy.  I have also gotten halfway through a really good book, I plan on laying out this afternoon and finishing it while getting some sun.  Last night was my nephew Dominic's 5th birthday party and I took 100+ pictures.  Got some pics of me and Dom together since we share a birthday.  We had such a great night and I can't wait to download the pictures.  This weekend is supposed to be sunny, warm and perfect, no rain until Tuesday when I go back to work.  I am in such a great mood right now!  How is everyone else's weekend going? 

 Your mood is infectious Ann, and put a smile on my face!

I needed it, since my brother woke me up at 6:30 this morning ON A SUNDAY!!! He was feeling down about his leg, and lack of funds, and inability to get anything done while recovering, etc, etc.  Other than that, my weekend has been good! I got a layout done last night, after a fun day. I met with my Fall Team for the first time yesterday...they seem great! Then my summer team had a picnic/bbq...it's cool and drizzly here, but the picnic area was covered so it was ok.

Today, we hope to go to a movie, and then my nieces bday party. Tomorrow is all mine baby...scrapping, cleaning, and more scrapping!
 

Have a great day everyone!

 Mine is going fine.  I ended up cleaning my kids classroom and the garage.  My scrap stuff is spread ALL over the place!  I had a ton of stuff in the garage and some shelves gave way so we had to clear that stuff up.  (it was camping and Christmas stuff)  Today we will probably go get some stronger brackets to hold the shelves up better and fix that.  I still have a ton of scrap stuff to put away.  Maybe we will go to a friend's house later to hang out.

 About to go to A.C. Moore - I have to take the subway AND the bus, and it's in a part of town I've never been to... Wish me luck!

 So far, so good.  I am making headway on my 2007 pictures.  If only dd would do one last thing for me so I can count up my layouts and add to my yearly count.

 The weather is beautiful here, too! This morning we went to Michael's and got a few things. Now Quinn is taking a nap, so I'm off to attempt to start my arcrylic album, but I'll probably just lay all of my stuff out and stare at it for awhile!

 We went to the local water park yesterday, today and tomorrow we are having people over to bbq. So glad we decided to open our pool early since the weather is beautiful.

It's been very stormy here and today it's kind of iffy. That's okay though because we've been having a movie marathon while scrapping and laying our new hardwood (bamboo) floor in our master bedroom. I've wanted a new floor in there since we moved in and it is gorgeous!

Tonight we are scheduled to go to the ZZ Top concert but it will depend on the weather. If the OK/KS tornados move this way we won't go; otherwise I can't wait to rock n roll!!

Tomorow is the family picnic and it should be beautiful weather for that!

 So far so good, I've slept in both Sat and Sunday! I havent slept in, in months! I did a few digi pages. And am working on a mini album. My only down side is I ate tomatoe, and now have big cankiersore but I am just having a good weekend right Laura (art-teacher)

 i really really wanted to scrap this weekend but, sigh, i guess it's not to be.  my son is getting married in 2 weeks.  her parents live out of town so our house is pretty much wedding central where all the plans, supplies, prep, etc. is going on.  throw in our crazy family stuff and i don't have time to do anything for me.  wahhhhh.  whine, sniff.  lol.

today i am precooking some food for a post wedding brunch we are having the day after the wedding.  i can get some of it out of the way and frozen until then.  i'd much rather be in my studio than in my kitchen.  sigh.  maybe tomorrow.

 I'm with you Susie, our youngest high graduation is in 2 weeks and we have been powerwashing the back deck ALL day. In anticipation of the grad party the same day.   My hand is so tired it is shaking.  I don't think I can do any digi layouts as I can barely move it.  Tomorrow he stains the deck hopefully. 

 well wonders of wonders, i did manage to play in my studio today!  i only got one layout done but it's one more than i expected this weekend.  it was fun!

 Don't ask right now.

DH is doing stupid man tricks again.


God, give me strength but not so much that I'll kill him with my bare hands.....

 I've had a busy weekend.  DH and I saw Indiana Jones Friday night and then went camping.  We got back this afternoon and did errands until now and I am super tired.  Tomorrow I need to do a super cleaning because my mom is coming for a visit n Tuesday.  This will not be a very productive week for me scrapwise!

 I'm jealous Jess, I wanted to go camping this weekend!  Our tent's rain flap is missing though, so we're planning to get a new one soon. 

Yesterday we went to the New England Air Museum to take photos of the planes.  It's part of a Father's Day gift for my dad (he works there).  Since he's in Seattle this weekend I figured it was a good weekend to get up there without him knowing about it!  Then we made Thai shrimp curry with basil lime couscous (Rachel Ray recipe) with my new Rachel Ray cookware.  Today we went to my godparents' picnic - they have a great spot with a pond/paddleboats/etc.  Fun!

Tomorrow we've got another picnic in MA and then we're going to see the new Indiana Jones movie! 

 The weekend is great.  This is the first two day weekend we had in almost two months.  Working six days a week reallly kills you.  We went to see Indiana Jones today, planted some flowers and tomorrow we are having a cook out.

Ugh. I have been sick for over a week with a sinus infection that is making me drag.  It is gorgeous weather; there are really cool scrapbooking projects left unfinished, and all kinds of fun stuff going on.  Hopefully I will feel better today. :b 

I really want to get some scrapbooking in.

 It's been pretty good.  DS had his 6th grade graduation party at school on Friday that I attended.  The weekend was filled with chores and errands.  The weather was awful, so we couldn't plan anything outside.

Last night tornados came through Iowa and Minnesota and although I don't live in the area where they hit, we had terrible thunderstorms and the storm has damaged our satellite dish, so no TV for us until Thursday when a technician can come out and fix it.

Maybe I'll get some pages done.

It is going well, rather relaxed.  Actually sat down and watched Underdog with the kids yesterday, did a little gardening, a little housecleaning on Sat.  I have gotten 3 LOs done, plus the 4 I did on Thurs.  AND I know the next 2 that I want to work on, but I probably should get some more housework done and do more gardening before we get more rain.    Had a long chat with my FIL yesterday.  I'm not ready to talk about that yet, but be warned that it is coming!

 It's been a long weekend, but good. My sis graduated from hs on Friday, I did a ton of laundry on Sat, scrapped 3 LOs yesterday and watched all 5 Harry Potter movies, and I'm back at work today.
