It seemed like a really long week. The weather was so unstable and my allergies didn’t like it at all. Only nine school days with kids left and only 11 total. I am so ready for summer vacation – my first in six years. I’m sure I’ll miss the summer school pay, but a whole two months to exercise, read, scrapbook, and work on my photography sounds really wonderful right now.
Lynn and I had a great time at CKC Buffalo. I was a bit disappointed in my classes. I’ll know how to choose better another time. The one class I really did like was sponsored by Simple Scrapbooks (my favorite scrapbook magazine, so no surprise).
Lynn and I took patterned paper and a Scrapbook Trends article called “Twelve Cards for $12.” It was easy to pack the supplies, and we each finished eight cards Friday night in our hotel room. I used the new Paper Loft papers, stickers and tags. They’re a bit brighter than my usual style but I’m happy with them. Fun for summer birthdays.
We’ve been getting more photos of the wedding from Tracy’s brother and sister. I don’t get tired of looking at them. What a happy day! What a happy couple! It’s amazing to me that we got the only perfect day weather-wise that we’ve had in the last five weekends. Lucky us. Here are a few more pictures: Sarah and Adam, Sarah and Matthew, and the beautiful flowers done by my sister-in-law.
Tracy and I got a wonderful invitation to go to Chautauqua for three days with his mother and stepfather. Years ago we took Sarah and Matt and went with Grandma and Grandpa for a week and had a wonderful time. I think we went three years in a row. We haven’t been back in many years and we’re really looking forward to it. It’s Education Week so there’ll be interesting lectures as well as plenty of relaxing time and great entertainment. We’ll be there on the Fourth and I remember the fireworks over the lake as quite wonderful.
