Long Time, No Blog!!


Hello to anyone stopping by!
Just want to let you know I am going to get back to blogging...

So, here is a pic of me & my husband on our recent trip to Vegas. This is when we sent on a motorcycle trip to Death Valley National Park. We rented Harleys for 2 days while out there. Gorgeous... and HOT in D.V.!! Amazing beauty though.
Also while there I visited the AMAZING Viva LasVegasStamps store. WOW, is all I can say... got a few cute images, but didn't spend nearly enough time there... :o(

Well, I'll be back soon!

Hugs,

Cards For Matt

Cards For Matt





I'm trying to organize a card campaign for Matt Brown, a 16 y/o hockey player from Norwood, MA.


Matt was paralyzed in a freak accident on the ice on January 23, 2010.



After many weeks of rehab at the Shepard Center in Atlanta, GA, Matt is now home and working hard to get well.



Cards and letters can be sent to Matt at the following address:



Matt Brown

email me for my address!


Here is a link to Matty's website to learn more about this young man.
I hope to generate as much exposure as possible for Matt. I am asking anyone who sees this to please post a link to my blog post. Thanks!!!
Hugs,

Congratulations, Chris!!!


Yesterday, my baby boy graduated high school! It was an emotional day for me, since Chris is the baby of the family!! I love seeing all his friends grown up into beautiful young men & women, closing one chapter and beginning a new one! God bless them all...

Remembering Sammy


Sadly, we had to say good-bye to our 14 year old Chocolate Lab, Sammy. We knew we were going to have to make the heart-wrenching decision to put him down, for his own sake. And we finally had to do it.


Rest in peace, my precious boy. We loved having you as our sweet dog... you were a part of our lives for so long, it's hard remembering life before you came to us. We'll see you again when the time is right. Good-bye, boy.... we'll love you forever.
