Hi there...
I just wanted to pop in and shout out a howdy do to you.
I'm back from a memorable and magical *best-ever* vacation. I've been living a dream come true these past 10 days so it will take me some time to settle back into the routine of life.
We took tons of pictures while we were away. Oh my gosh we had so much fun! I uploaded the pix last night and was SUPER surprised to see we took 1,052 pictures! Thank goodness we're in the digital age! In the old days, to process that many pictures would have cost hundreds of dollars! As they were loading I asked Glen to guess how many pictures there were. He guessed 679. I thought, "That's crazy! No way!" Boy was I surprised! Now granted, we were on the road a lot so there are lots of blurry, fuzzy pictures of sky and guard rails, or "deleters," as my sister calls them, but there's definitely some keepers in there. :-)
SO much going on that I need to catch up with but the super-de-duper biggest thing going on is that the info for September's ComePlayEugene is up on Jill's blog!
I am absolutely thrilled to announce that I'm going to be teaching at Emily and Jill's ComePlayEugene! EEeeekkk! I'm SO honored to be a part of this fantastic event!!!! These girls are so talented and so fun and will take VERY good care of you! Activities planned include my Souvenir Journal class, lots of great treats and goodies, a slumber party, and a trip to the Coburg Antique Fair! You can join us for the full weekend or even just one of the class sessions.
Here are a few detail from the Souvenir Journal...
There's gonna be some very dear and talented people at ComePlayEugene including this gal and this gal! I hope you local gals and pals will plan on joining us!!! You can register here and if you have any questions, just let me know!
See you soon...I'll be back in a few days, renewed and recharged and ready to fly!!! :-)
Well, all righty-rooo! I'm so glad you had a good trip and it's great to have you back! Looking forward to many shots of your trip!
Hugs,
Suz

Sounds like fun! I love your journal.
It was so nice seeing you and spending the weekend at the same table in OC. I can't wait to see your finished book.

Love the journal, especially the flower trims- did you make that crocheted flower and the flower with the printed paper petals in the center?

I can't wait to work on your journal at Come Play next weekend and just be inspired by all the creativity... and this time I won't be leaving for a date :)
