Well, March is winding down, and my "to do list" is winding down also. Today we leave for Utah for the wedding. But...in the mean time my new "grandson", Elliot got married on Monday of this week to his girlfriend, Cami. It's been a crazy week, with lots of things going on. I'm looking forward to going to the temple today, and feeling relaxed and peaceful.
It the midst of all the weddings going on, I have been trying to finish my exchange cards - for March (I know, my bad). I have one more set to finish, but it is on glossy paper and the ink was taking a long time to dry, so I had to leave them for a few days. I hope they will turn out cool, cuz it was a fun technique. This month's theme was to do cards using a technique you had not ever used before. That was a real challenge to me so I had to go digging to find a few new techniques. Thanks to my Stampin' Success magazine from Stampin' Up! I was able to find some fun things I just hadn't had time to try. I'm pleased with the results. I'll post pics later.
Have a great finish to spring break week. I'll be back with pictures next week.

It really is Marry March
Well little did I know when I wrote last time that we would end up with 2 weddings in March - 1 week apart!!
On Monday of this week, my oldest son Jacob called to say he and his girlfriend were getting married on Friday night. They had originally planned a wedding on Halloween. So they decided to move it up ... alot!!!
So they got everything done and were married very EARLY this morning - like at 12:10 AM. They had the ceremony at their house and a friend of Jacob's did the ceremony. There were quite a few people there and we all crowded into their living room/dining room. So here are a few pictures of things. Tamra did a great job of getting everything ready and nice in a week's time.
Sorry these didn't load in the right order, but the ceremony really was first, then the rings, then the refreshments.
So today is the Snake River Flats spring show and Wendell is singing in that twice, and Reflections (Minico's premier choir) is singing and Melanie is in that, and we have a shower for Heatherly, so it started early (for the wedding) and will be a busy day. Then next week will be very busy with Sean & Heatherly's wedding.
Once that is over, then the next big things are Sean shipping out to Basic, and then our wonderful retreat. I will definitely need a relaxing retreat - I think I'll take a book to read and just sit around with my feet in the foot bath the whole time!! LOL Probably NOT.
Have a great day and if you are traveling for spring break - be safe. We are looking forward to seeing lots of friends and family during the next week.

MARRY MARCH
Well, time is going by and the wedding is only 21 days away - even a little less. Things are going along nicely ... at least for my part. Except I still haven't found a dress for the reception yet, so tomorrow Wendell and I are headed to UT to see what they have that we don't have in Burley and Twin...that should be ALOT I hope!!!. I hear that the invitations are arriving at their destinations, so that is exciting. I think they turned out great - Hooray for Heatherly and her awesome designing skills. Too bad I can't run MY DIGITAL STUDIO so well, but I'll keep plugging along. I think everything is falling into place.
Almost all of the puppies are gone now...we only have 2 left and they are spoken for, just haven't been picked up yet. I will miss them because they were so cute and fun to play with, but I'm sure glad to not have to be worrying about them all the time.
Things are in full swing for our 4 Girls and a Dream Spring retreat to be held in April. We still have one spot open, but we are thrilled with those that are attending and we are excited about what we have planned. Our theme is Come RELAX with us, and we will be providing some "relaxation" time as well as their scrapping and crafting time. We are doing a photo shoot for each lady for the project. How fun is that? I can't wait.
So have a great March and check back later for some photos and updates.
