Scrap bags, that is....this weekend I am going on a 4 day girl's retreat near Canton with some of my best friends. Truth is, this is a substitute trip for Paris! How can a trip to Canton possibly be a substitute for Paris, you ask....well, last spring a group of us girls decided to start saving our pennies for a trip to Paris this May. And, we all know how life has a way of steering us in directions other than our plans and sure enough, "life" removed Paris as a destination for THIS spring (we are not giving up this idea..it is just too delicious to discard forever!) So, we decided to go closer to home and take a retreat to a lake house that is designed with scrappers in mind. We also chose this weekend so we could go to First Monday Trade Days in Canton, too...so we can "junk" and "scrap" (talk about a heavenly weekend!!)
I haven't posted in a while because I have been SCRAPPIN!!! I have already completed my 2 volumes that make up 1995 and made tremendous progress in my 2006 album. I am also in the process of getting all of my digital pix printed and organized.
We also decided to get into "Square Foot Gardening" and that has taken quite a bit of time, too. I will post pix later.
I am loving retirement....getting to run and play with Jenna at the drop of a hat and having Presley and Brady over more often has been a dream. Plus I have read "The Help" (excellent book) and "The Devil in the Junior League" (cute, but nowhere near the level of "The Help") and have started "The Friday Night Knitting Club."
Sun is up, so gotta fly!
