Busy Weekend

By
Haven't had one of these in a couple of months, but we were BUSY this weekend!
  • Saturday morning started off slowly (just the way I like!).
  • Then I did a little photoshoot with the kids for our Christmas card (you'll all have to live in suspense till you get the card (hopefully sometime this week ;))
  • Then, after some serious editing of my favorite photo, I went to Costco to get a gazillion photos made, ran various errands, came home (with the pictures) and started the cards.
  • Saturday evening we went to a Christmas party through Carlito's job (got home around midnight)
  • Sunday I went to church, raced to Toys-R-Us to buy a birthday present for Carlos' classmate, came home, got him dressed, took him to the party, and from there went to my cousin's house for a family gathering. Whew!
  • Got home around 5:00 and needed to have some "me" time. I don't do well with busy weekends.

So I went to Barnes & Noble to recharge my batteries and--believe it or not--spent over two hours browsing through books in the Crafts section (scrapbooking stuff), photography section, digital photography section, and magazines.

Feb Year In Review Layouts

By
Just a quick post tonight. It dawned on me a few days ago that I'm already behind in my "Year . In . Review" layouts, so I put February's together. Believe it or not, for such a simple concept, these layouts took about three hours combined. I couldn't believe it! Anyway, these photos depict the highlights of February. Maybe tomorrow I'll do March :) (I wonder how many hours that will take?!) Just in case you're wondering, Carlos is still sick--no fever, just a sore throat now. Hopefully he'll go back to school on Tuesday ('cause I need some "me" time before I turn into a monster, lol!). 'Cause as you all know, life is all about me, right ;) Happy Monday, y'all!

Nehemiah: Sheep Gate (Symbolism)

By Carmela
hubpages.com http://www.prayfordetroit.com/ As I mentioned in my Nehemiah  post, God has nudged me this summer to study Nehemiah in depth because He has some things He wants to show me.  I am just starting Chapter 5, and I must say it is so exciting and interesting. I have to admit, though, that when I got to Chapter 3, it just looked like one of those boring chapters: it gave all the boring details about each section of the wall of Jerusalem that was being rebuilt, and gave countless names of the people who rebuilt each section.  I was going to skip it and move on to Chapter 4 when I felt the Lord nudge me to look deeper--that there was something here that He wanted to show me.   So I dutifully sought the Lord (and a research book, and the internet!) , and was ASTOUNDED at the incredible layers of symbolism in the names of the gates!  It has turned out to be my favorite chapter so far.  :)  God is incredibly amazing, huh?   The big pi...

Wow! I am so bugged that I never post anymore. Facebook is just so much easier. I'll just keep it simple-- random data: today I had Pho (Vietnamese soup) for the first time and LOVED it!! Seriously, you haven't lived till you've tried it :) I created two and a half sketches of future layouts, and halfway finished two more layouts. really on a paper-scrapping frenzy! This is one sketch: I joined the Facebook group "I grew up in Fairfield, IL, and thought I would die of boredom (but I didn't)" :D ... you have to have grown up in a dinky town to "get it" had a "day off from life" hanging out at my in-laws house all day ... ahhh! gotta love days like that I can't believe it's almost June already
