Hope everyone had a good easter ours was really good. We had a great easter egg hunt at grandma and grandpas (see the boys blog). And on Sunday we all got to meet Jenny's boyfriend;) He is absolutely great by the way and we all love him and can't wait to see him again. {ok Jenn I need my twenty bucks now, just teasing Billy} He really is a great guy and we had a lot of fun. I am also very excited because he won tickets to 9 to 5 on broadway and won't be able to make it so he is giving his ticket to me and I get to go to New York with Jenn to see it. Yeah watch out New York here I come. I can hardly wait. Thanks again Billy and Craig thanks also for staying home for two days alone with the kids so that I can go. You are the best husband. This is one of the last two cards that we did in my final stamp club. I thought that it looked like a grasshopper but was informed after it was done by Jacob that it is actually a cricket. They both jump so aren't they technically the same thing. I am kind of sad for club to end but also excited to be able to use more of my stamps. So many times I only used current since that is all we can demo, and I have a lot of cute retired ones that I would still really like to use. Hope everyone is doing great and had a wonderful easter. Thanks for looking.

I thought that I had pictures on my camera of a couple of other cards to add but don't. So I had this one that I will add really quick instead. I thought that this turned out cute and really liked the color combos. This was Craigs valentines card that I made for him valentines morning when I realized that I had forgotten a card and he had one for me. I know terrible wife, hard to believe that I used to read almost all of the cards before getting one for him. I like to blame the kids for it but it but I know that it is me being lazy. I did really like the colors on this one though and the olive you stamp is one of my favorites. I don't have the recipe though and am to lazy to go get my book and put it together right now. Thanks for looking.


Craig and I spent a weekend in Vegas together he had been there for three weeks for work and I flew down to drive home with him. We spent three days before the drive though without the kids and it was very nice. We stayed in the Hilton Grand Vacation on the strip. Neither of us is all that crazy about Vegas but the hotel was awesome. All I ended up with were a few pictures of the hotel. I guess once you have seen Vegas once that is all you need. But it was nice to just relax and not feel like we needed to get a lot done. Usually on vacation we spend all sorts of time running and sight seeing and come home more tired then when we left. We spent a lot of time hanging out and relaxing in the hotel room. I think I took a nap every day that we were there and uninterupted. We also went and saw two of the Cirque shows while we were there. Ka at the Belagio and O at the MGM. They were both very good but my favorite was O, Craigs favorite was Ka. We did have a lot of fun and even though I was tempted to ask Craig if he would mind if I flew home I took the drive instead and am glad that I did. It was kind of fun to be on a road trip without the kids in the back asking every three minutes if we were almost there. Not that I don't love them but you know how it is. Hope everything is going well for all of you. Thanks for looking.
