Keeping my promise...

...aside from just being "busy" with life, and some scrapbooking, there isn't really a lot to tell from over the past week....

Mike took the kids out to our family cabin at Gull Lake saturday to sunday and were joined with the Malinowski gang on sunday. they all went for their first official swim of the summer, tried out the M's new inflatible boat and of course, played on the jetski too!!

( the cute, cozy little cabin...can't wait to go out myself too! )

...and I went to Tara's from saturday until sunday for a girls scrapbooking weekend!
Woot Woot!!!
I picked up Grams on my way, stopped at tara and johnny's in morris to unload and start chillin' bevvies in the fride, and then the 3 of us were off to winkler for lunch at twisters and a pit stop at My Scrappe Shoppe in town there....lovely stuff, as always!

upon our return back to tara's, we commenced the scrappin' evening with the traditional playing of many seasons of FRIENDS on DVD to entertain while we played!
I was feeling particularily inspired this weekend as I don't often find time to scrapbook what I WANT to do without any deadlines or certain purposes for classes....
so this was a most enjoyable overnighter of free time for scrappin' the night and next day away!

THANK YOU tara for being the usual perfect and cheery host and for offering " CASA LECLAIRE-ELIAS" to us for a very hospitable stay!
( and i totally agree that next time should be the whole entire weekend!! )
:O)
so, here's my creations from the weekend!!

( this one was the very last one i made...after 24 hours of Friends, I was completely inspired via CHANDLER BING to mark the weekend somehow...teehee )

( AND YES!!! I did get a variety of new Kraft Kuts papers from Fancy Pants Design...here's a sample layout with the new edge shaped papers...)

( what happens when you forget your circle cutter at home? Half of tara's coffee cups and glasses serve the purpose!! hahahaha...good times... )
