where has the time gone?

recap: well, since I started my new job 2 months ago, I haven't had time to breath. So much going on all at once. I've had the past couple of days off b/c I had all 4 wisdom teeth pulled. (ouch! not fun) So now I'm trying to play catch up with my list of stuff I've been slacking on. One of them being scrapbooking. I signed up to take the 3rd class by Jessica Sprague and I've barley had time to do any of the work. Now the 4 week class is over and I've only completed 1 layout from it! URGH! I hate being behind. I feel like I've missed soooo much. But the nice thing is that all the material will be available for ever! LOVE her classes for that! :D

I went to a Stampin' Up 10 4 10 class last night with my friend, Beth. We made some really cute cards. All of them are birthday cards and I can't wait to be able to use them. Stampin' Up is one thing I've really never got into. I do have some of their stamps but I think I really like the clear stamps better. At least you can see where you're stamping with the clear. But they do have some really cute stamps out. I'll probably cave in and buy a bunch.

Speaking of Birthdays, I can't believe my birthday is coming up in June. Yikes! I really, REALLY want the new Canon XSi. I told DH that everyone should chip in and get me that camera. :D (I'm so bad!) We stopped at Best Buy the other weekend b/c I wanted to check out the camera. They didn't even have it. They guy said that they had it out on the floor 4 hours and someone wanted it really bad so they decided to sell the floor model. And they said they wouldn't get another one in for a couple more days. As I think about it, it's probably good that they didn't have it that day. I would have probably walked out the store with it if they did.

DH and I went up to Door County the weekend of April 4th to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary. Wow! I can't believe 10 years have gone by already. We really wanted to go to Las Vegas, but decided to stay in the area instead. We stayed at the beautiful Birchwood Lodge in Sister Bay. We stayed in the Grand One-Bedroom Suite. It was so nice. And the shower in that room was HUGE! It was a walk in shower and you could have fit 50 people in that thing. It was HUGE! After we got settled in, we meet my friend Jen that lives in Sister Bay. Her daughter, Jenna, had a dance recital rehearsal that night. And since the recital was on Sunday and we weren't going to be there for it, we went to the rehearsal instead. Afterwards we went to dinner at....um....nuts! I forgot the name of the place....but they did have good food! Saturday DH and I went out to see the lighthouse on cana island. So pretty. It was such a beautiful day out. Then Saturday night, Jen & Roger and D & I went to eat at Alexander's. So good! All in all, it was a great weekend and a great anniversary. :)
