I made these cards this week - actually I made several more but I've alreay sent them. I spent a whole afternoon putzing with these and I did enjoy it. Even dad said they turned out nicely.
I also framed this caricature of Chase that was done at Valleyfair back in '02. I found it when I was helping Amy go through a bunch of stuff. I then went to Goodwill and found this neat frame. Dad really wanted the frame to put a car picture in for the family room but I overruled him this time. Isn't it a neat picture?
Chase decided he shoul have a picture on the blog with him and Grampa so we took one of the two of them.
The Saturday that I went with Grandma to her reunion all day on a Saturday with a whole group of people I didn't know in a room that the air conditioning quit in the middle of a 94 degree day, Dad bought me a couple of little end tables to go on either side of the bed in the chocolate bedroom. Chase said he thought they went very well with the room. Then he says, will you take my picture with it? What could I say?
As you know, we plan to have an ugly shirt contest on Saturday at the Reunion. Dad and I each got what we consider ugly shirts last week one evening. They're in the wash so I don't have a picture of them yet. I will try to take lots of pictures. However, these are the prizes for the ugliest shirts. There will be a "bit of money" in each prize so they can start collecting to buy themselves something new. There will be little signs on them indicating "Ugliest Shirt Award 2010".I'm not doing something correctly because it's taking me forever to get my pictures to the right place. They download to the top of the blog and then I have to pull them down to where I want them. I don't think that's the right way but it works.
I'll leave you with one last thought from the chocolate bedroom wall - right by the door doing out is this little plague - I love it!
Goals for the week:
1. To make it thought next Sunday noon with my patience intact.
Have a great week!!!!!
I was just going to call you and remind you it was Tuesday. And look - you are on top of things. Very impressed!
ReplyDeleteIt looks to me like you got a lot accomplished. I love the picture of Chase but I also want a picture of the curtains once you get them hung. I LOVE it that Chase wanted you to take his picture...I sure miss that guy! Looks like I need to find you a new blog background.
