End of April Special

Just a reminder that April 29 is the last day to take advantage of the special I am offering.  Anyone placing a Stampin' Up! order with ME by April 29 (evening) of at least $50 in merchandise, will be eligible for a free Classic inkpad of their color choice.  You can either call me with your order or go to my website and shop.  My website is www.stampinup.com/esuite/home/janahernstamps then hit the SHOP button in the top right side.  That will take you to a place that you can place an order.  The value of the stamp pad is $6.85(pad, s&h and tax).   Don't miss out on this free offer, available only from ME.

Prom is Saturday at our high school.  So my daughter that is a senior is excited about going.  I have a sister that is a miracle worker at the sewing machine and so we went to Pocatello a couple weeks ago and purchased some fabric for a dress.  OK, the first miracle was that the fabric Melanie picked out was all on sale, so the total cost was around $54.  Then we brought it home and she drew up a picture and delivered it to Margene.  The next miracle was that we thought we wouldn't have enough of the lace, but we had more than we needed, then the dress turned out gorgeous and Melanie is so excited about it.  I only hope her day will be wonderful on Saturday too. 
May will be busy with graduation/senior acitivities for Melanie, getting ready to go to Texas for Air Force Basic Training graduation for my son, and a few fun stamping events. 
I am hoping to have a stamp night when crafters will come and make cards that we can send to an organization that send packs of cards to servicemen throughout the world.  I will be posting more information about this very soon. 
So for now, hope everyone is PRAYING for spring weather - I am so tired of this cold!!  Thanks for stopping by.

April is Here

Well the end of March went by in a whirl and it is already April.  The wedding and reception for Sean & Heatherly went well.  Her dad said the theme for their wedding was "wet."  It rained, snowed, blew and was generally nasty, but everything still worked out and the pictures are nice too.  Unfortunately, I am a total Loser and didn't take ANY pictures.  So I will have to wait until the can pirate some from Heatherly's family to post.  If you are on Facebook, she has lots of them posted and you can see them by going to my page (I think-I am not totally Facebook literate.) 
So today, we went to Boise to send Sean on his way to Basic Traing for the Air Force.  It was good to see him go, but hard also knowing we can only send and get letters for the next 2 months.  But his sweet wife was a rock and so I can be too.  His plane was late leaving Boise, so he got stuck in Phoenix and will not arrive in TX until around midnight.  Not a good way to start off, but it can't be helped.  I know he'll be OK.  He was anxious to go and get started in this next phase of his life.  We are planning to visit San Antonio for his graduation in a couple of months. 
So next on the agenda is the 4 Girls and a Dream retreat - which starts this Thursday.  It is themed "come craft and RELAX with us" and I am surely going to relax this time.  I was sort of hoping I'd have some pictures from the weddings to scrapbook, but that didn't happen, so I am taking several novels and I'm going to read and soak my feet and just be a good Hostess.  I am really looking forward to that. 
Have a great week, and I will try to get some pictures of SOMETHING to post soon.
