The birthday LO is from this year. We celebrated my birthday about a week late due to my being at the SA retreat. We had "Sprinkles" cupcakes(yeah, the famous ones), and yes, they are worth it, especially the red velvet! MMMMMM!!! Heavenly.
DS has been paying attention and got me something I had looked at once in the mall with him and said I would like that.
DD and SIL got tickets to several of the Dallas Summer Musicals shows for DD and I to attend. The tickets are a great gift, in fact two gifts in one...the shows and spending time with DD.
DH got me a day at the spa and wonderful breakfast at my favorite place preceeding the spa day. My hair is cut, colored and permed....you would not recognize me. Got a nice manicure too.
The other LO is of the first apt we lived in in Lake Charles.

Girl Power and Concentrate LO's are from the most recent SA retreat. The other group shot is from the first retreat I ever attended at Ryann's in SA.

Thickers Queen LO is from our recent retreat.
Hope you find some inspiration here.
The retreat was awesome. I miss the girls already. I am ready for another one!

These Lo's are all from the July Commit 2 Paper kit. Beautiful Fancy Pants PP and great embellies. Hope you are getting one!

I am at a crop retreat with my sisters from OSU and we are having a blast. I have been looking forward to this for so many months and it is everything I had hoped for. It has been so wonderful to meet IRL more of my cyber sisters and reconnect with ones I had met before. The store that is hosting us, which is called "Scrapbooking 911" has been so good. The meals have been outstanding and the customer service is over the top.
I am loving these days and will get back to them right now!
