Recent Layouts... and prayers answered!

Hey there...

Well - I was able to complete two layouts at my Thursday

night Crop and sort of pre-plan another two...

which meant that once I came home,

I had to set up so I could scrap on Friday as well!

So - yes - it is true... once again,

I am all caught up!

You saw the photo's last week...

here they are in their layouts!

LOVED this paper when I found it! So yummy! and I just got those Heidi Swapp foam diamond/argyle stamps! Too fun!

One of our new Scrapbook stores is selling Creative Cafe stuff... OMGoodness - I love it all!!!?

I am sure I will take some photo's this weekend

when the whole family is gathered together!

We'll be missing our newest edition, Brandon,

as he is serving in Iraq.

His first holiday as a married man,

and yet so far away from his bride,

and his home!

We are so thankful that there are people

like him who are willing to serve.

The blessing is that the newlyweds

are able to 'talk' online

nearly every day!

It is so not like it was back in the day!

Today is grocery shopping day...

I SHOULD have gone as soon as I dropped

off Kaye to school when it is still relatively quiet...

but no... we woke up to snow this morning

and I was just too cold and not caffeinated yet!

Trust me, I did everyone a favor! LOL!?

I am enjoying a gingerbread latte

and slowly warming up and waking up...

I will head out soon!

We are thanking God for answered prayers...

Most importantly this week we are thanking Him

that our beloved Chuck

is home and recovering from

an unexpected emergency surgery...

amazing how God can truly work

ALL things together for good!

We love you Darcie

and we are praying for you,

for Dan and the girls...

I am sure this Thanksgiving

will give you just a little more

to be thankful for!

Let us know if we can do anything!

I am off now to lurk around a few other blogs,

hit the grocery store,

and to cut up some unassembled cards

for the RAK I gave away!

(Karen.... e-mail me so I know

where to send your prize!)

I still need to finish up some other

(easier/quicker) cards to be ready

to send out in a week or two

- not to mention writing out our Christmas Letter...

(yes, I DO do one of those!)

Blessings,

~Karrilee~
