Today's the Day








Today we will trek to Sun Devil Stadium to listen to Obama and see the graduates of ASU Class of 2009! Hard to believe that my son and future daughter-in-law will be part of that class. Those 4 yrs went by so quickly. So very proud of both of them!! What a wonderful accomplishment and a fun ending to four years of hard work.
My son will be graduating with 2 degrees...one in political science and one in global studies. Wahoo! Way to go!

Arizona State University is pleased to announce that President Barack Obama will give the Commencement Address at University Commencement on Wednesday, May 13 at 7 p.m. in Sun Devil Stadium.

Trying Something New

Getting ready for a graduation party for my son's fiance'. This Saturday we will be celebrating with her family. I am giving her a card with money but wanted a little extra to include. I chose to buy a really pretty frame that I am blinging out even more for her to put her new engagement photo in. Plus I saw this great little project on my friend Rebecca's blog. I thought Sabrina would like it. It went together quick and easy. I like the way it turned out. I can see making all kinds of these in the future. The sky's the limit on what you can write. Too fun!

Busy Week

No photo as my computer is in the shop....again. My new computer. arrrgghhh. Oh well. So I am using my sons computer and have to make it quick.

The party was so much fun this last Sunday. Oh my! Just a great afternoon. It was so good to have everyone here.
This coming weekend we have more family coming into town....so more parties. Yahoo!!
Oh and we get to meet my sons future in-laws. They are coming into town also. To celebrate ASU graduation. And to check out our yard for the wedding. No pressure. teeheehee But John has the yard looking good so I think we are ready. It will be fun to meet them. Everyone is excited about the wedding.

I have been so busy that I haven't gotten to play as much as I would like with my new toy...the cricut. But I am very happy to have it. This weekend we have another employee crop at Paper Vineyard so I will get to play then. I didn't invite anyone to come along this time as things have changed daily here (my dad was back in the hospital) so I didn't want to have to cancel on someone at the last minute. Hopefully the rest of the week will be quiet. That will mean my dad is doing well.

Hope everyone is having a great week...enjoy this wonderful weather if you are here in AZ!!

National Scrapbooking Day

Today is the day we are suppose to spend our time scrapping the hours away. I hope to do a bit of that later. For the most part I will be cleaning house today, getting ready for birthday parties tomorrow......we are celebrating all the boys birthdays. With one leaving for Macedonia soon I wanted everyone to be here, so we lumped them all together and we will celebrate BIG tomorrow.
It should be lots of fun!


Last night my husband and I were invited to join my son at the ASU Chi Alpha End-of-Year Banquet. It exceeded our expectations. What a great group of kids. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We got to meet all the kids that he hangs out with and spends all of his free time with. They were genuine, on fire kids. Sharing their lives with each other and those around them. Sharing the love of Christ. It was amazing to watch them interact. We couldn't ask for a better place for our son to spend his college years than with this group of people. Praising God for placing our son in this environment. :)


Lots of scrapbook challenges out there....be sure to check them out around the web and enjoy your day scrapping! I do plan to use my new cricut! Yes, I said cricut...that is what arrived in the mail yesterday. Yahoo! Looking forward to some fun later today. Enjoy your day!
