Cute Photos and Cool Stuff!
Hey Everyone!
I mentioned that I'd been in Ohio most of last week. I attended the wedding of my nephew, Garrett, and his high school sweetheart (they are now 22), Amanda. They are an adorable couple and I'm lucky because they'll be moving out to Utah so Garrett can go to school.
I had to show off my nieces--they were the flowergirls. So cute!!
Thanks to everyone for the neat messages and gifts for my 10 year anniversary on QVC. What an amazing experience--I can't believe my husband pulled off taking everyone out there and surprising me on air. The next day we all went and saw Wicked in NYC, then we stayed in Ocean City, NJ for a day. Fun times.
My friend, Amy Ketron, came for the occasion and hung out with my family. I had to show you the adorable "jelly belly" bottle she made for each of us. She said the bottles are from Starbucks drinks (purchased at the grocery store--you could do this with any type of cool beverage bottle) and she cut out the cute mini-scrapbooks (attached to the bottle) with her Wishblade (a Silhouette would work great too).
Sally Davis and Michele Ritchie presented me with this beautiful scrapbook. It's the story of how we all met (Sally's husband made a steak dinner for me and my sisters in Pennsylvania). It took them a year to complete--Love it!
Hope you're having a great week. Mine is jam packed. I'm in charge of a daddy-daughter date at church tonight, plus hosting an American Idol party. Collin has a basketball game, and Brecken has a huge state report due tomorrow (she has Minnesota--what a fun state!). Brecken's singing a solo at the Hope of American program tomorrow night, my friend Jamie has a bridal shower, I have a big hike to go on with my boys (they are going to hike in Peru for the first two weeks of June), plus loads of work deadlines. We are going to Indiana Jones on Saturday night with some friends, the cemetery on Sunday after church, Kyle's Eagle Court of Honor and Lagoon (a local amusement park) on Monday. Whew. I guess it's all self-chosen chaos and I love it. I wouldn't have life any other way!
Hope you have a great Memorial Day weekend.
Be Safe!
Sincerely
Lisa

Hey, Lisa!! Have fun. We have the same crazy, hectic life but we LOVE it!!
Have fun at Lagoon. We're hoping to hang out there in just a few weeks!!
We had so much fun watching AI. While we loved David A. we really wanted David C. to win...he's from Blue Springs...just an hour or so from here!! They both were awesome...and winners in my opinion!!
WOW!!! What beautiful scrapbooks that they made for you...so so very pretty.
Have a happy and safe Memorial Weekend.
Krystin (Alluvial Ward, Fresno, CA)...just a small intro :)
Those are some really neat gifts you've received. Holy smoley do you have a lot packed in your calendar over the next few days. I'm doing just the opposite & my oldest 2 are going camping with my youngest sister. So my DH & I are renting a few movies & I'm planning on working on some kind of scrapbooking stuff once our youngest goes to bed tonight. And then Sunday I'll head to my grandparents after church for a family gathering & pick up my older 2 kiddos at the same time.
Enjoy your Remembering weekend!
Such a cute idea re: Starbucks drink container for jellybeans!...I am looking for end of year teacher gifts and this with a Starbucks gift card is adorable! Have a safe weekend and enjoy the fun!!!

How about another contest? I won the Dr. Teal's bath salts and LOVE them! Thank you so much! The nights I get to soak in them I sleep so well. Nice reminder to treat myself before crashing into bed at night! Thanks for all your inspiration! When's the next QVC?
Lisa,
Surprise gifts are always great! I just posted on my blog a layout with the happy mail that you sent to me last year. I feel like I should say THANK YOU again for the neat gifts in honor of your birthday!

Alright, your Daughter got land of 10,000 lakes(MN). Our state bird is Loon(but some say the mosquito..LOL)and the state flower is Lady slipper. Any other info on the state I will have to refer to your Daughters report(LOL). Little hazy on our own state details.
Hope your Memorial day was FUN!
Hi Lisa,
