Scrap Night on Hold

Woooohoooooo.... Where did February go? It's already March 8th and I'm supposed to have a scrapnight this Saturday. It's on hold till the 31st. Too many birthdays and parties and etc's coming up to fill up the weekend hours!! (and trying to throw in a mad dash to clean my scrap room and the house before Saturday night is just NOT going to happen...) So, postponed until the 31st of March. Sometimes, you just have to put things off, right?

I have been scrapping because of the contests -- still plugging away at those!! (Thank you Christi, or I'd never have made layouts in the past few weeks!) Here are some of my contest layouts...

There is a project at CK that I am hoping to be a part of. It has to do with Family History and if you know me, that is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ME!! I hope I am chosen to be involved. When I started working on my Grandma Starks's genealogy in 1999, I had 3 names and one location, Reyno, Arkansas. From there I have gone back so many generations and connected to people (both distant cousins that are alive and ancestors) that I never knew. I think that in some small way my "digging at my roots" is keeping my great-grandmother's history alive -- she died when my grandmother was only 5, and Grandma was the oldest of 3 children -- by inspiring my brother to name his daughter Lillie. No, he's never told me that, but... He named her with the same spelling as our great-grandmother, Lillie.

Anyway, I'm waxing nostalgic here..

I have 4 paper piecings up on eBay right now... One ends today. Hopefully it will sell -- another of the cute monograms. I'm enjoying making the monograms... They're fun. I'm thinking of doing them as custom pieces. We'll see. :) http://cgi3.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewUserPage&userid=dayzeedesigns That's a link to my "about me " page on eBay which has links to all of my current auctions.

Well, Hannah has a "backwards" day today. Afternoon Kindergarten is going in the morning for Track & Field day, so I have to take her to school right about now! ;-)

I wish you all a happy Thursday. I'll post pics of our adventure at the Lehi Days Rodeo and chasing chickens on my MySpace Blog when I get home. Next week is Spring Break here, so expect some layouts, photos, and more paper piecings, too! (and hopefully I'll be doing heritage/family history layouts, too!!) Wish me luck!

Love, Dece
