In Atlanta

Well...as you might be able to tell, I'm trying to recover from all of my traveling. I've seen my house a day and a half basically since the 7th of July. I think I still live there. I'm not sure. LOL! I miss my husband and kids terribly, but I know that this is part of the job and my husband is AMAZING with the kids, so it's all good. (My mom even told me last night that I have the best husband - he had the kids bathed and ready for bed when he dropped them off with her - Good guy!)

Anyway - we're in Atlanta now and it's TOO EARLY to really think. (Although, I don't know why I'm complaining because I'm up this early all the time) Laura and I had the flight from You Know Where - well, actually the flight wasn't so bad - it was the getting to the airport. It was like Murphy's Law - anything and everything that COULD happen - did. We made a list and plan on doing a layout about it. Some highlights:

1) My paycheck wasn't signed (thanks Morris) so I couldn't deposit it. Fortunately, got that worked out.
2) Laura lost her credit card. Luckily - she found it.
3) Laura dropped her cell phone in the toilet. (I can't even talk about it without laughing so hard my face turns blue)

But, we're in Atlanta and in one piece. All is good. The hotel is really nice and the staff seems friendly. Plus, they have this peppermint shampoo and conditioner (I always bring my own but sometimes will try intriguing stuff) and my scalp is STILL tingling - pretty cool stuff. :)

Anyway - I'm off. Gotta get breakfast and get the boxes over to the room. If anyone thinks working CKU is glamourous - well - it's not. LOL! Lots of toting boxes, etc. But - you meet some of the COOLEST people. LOVE the students!

Oh - before I leave - photos of my cuties!





Miss them!

Just a few more days...

You know... in all honesty - my vacation really hasn't been that relaxing. As a matter of fact, right now I'm sitting at a Barnes & Noble connected to the net just so I can take care of a few work related things. Addison is in her stroller right next to me (she's smiling btw!) and I'm praying she stays happy long enough for me to be able to get a few things done. Today is Maggie's 6th birthday and she wanted to swim at the pool all day so Scott is with her for now and I have Addie. Tonight we're going out to celebrate her birthday and I'm going to take some photos on the beach. I can't believe my first "baby" is now six! My second baby is 4 months today. Where does the time go?

Anyway, in a few days I'll be in Chicago and I'll probably post more often if we can get a good connection in the hotel. Here's hoping! In the meantime, a few more photos of my girls!

Greetings from Madeira Beach!!!

Hey Everyone! Just taking a few quick moments to post online and say "hey" and I can't wait to see a bunch of you at CHA! My family and I are on vacation in Florida and I'm taking a few online moments to get some work done, etc.

Thought I'd post a few photos! :)







Be back soon!

Got a few more things...

You know - I really shouldn't show EVERYTHING that we're doing at CHA. But, I can't help myself. I have to show a few things. Although, I'm feeling a little sad because there aren't many comments. :( So - if you look at it and like it - let me know! Trust me - I worry myself SICK before a show about whether or not people will like things plus I'm going on vacation on the 8th, so you may or may not hear from me before the show and I'd love to know if you liked things or not.

Anyway, here is my personal favorite of my three new lines - Party On!!!!



I also have to post these! We're doing a lot with coasters for this show and a LOT of new things are coming! These are die-cut stars - LOVE them! SUPER easy to use! Also - some of my new coasters have TRIVIA in the negative space - so you can play trivia AND scrapbook!



So - what do ya think?

For those wanting PINK!

I'm too swamped to say a lot but I did want to post the pink line! :)

Any ideas on the movie? It's not 80's but it's one of my faves.

Sneak Peek Time!!!!

Well... the show is only a few weeks away and I'll be heading out for vacation on Saturday, so I thought I'd post a sneak peek of one of my lines. Just to see if people like it. I did something different this time - I drew BUGS! They're little cootie bugs and they make me happy! Cute little guys! This line is geared for boys, but don't worry - I think a lot of it can be applied to just about anything and I have something pink up my sleeve!

So, I present to you - Scientifically Weird. (Got the movie figured out yet?)



I would LOVE to hear your thoughts!!! :)
