Another Monday

Like the title says another Monday has almost passed us by.
I managed to get a couple of errands done before I had to run into work for most of the afternoon. It is very slow in the NICU right now. But, I covered for a gal that had a meeting she needed to go to. Oh, yes,the laundry got done too.

I got totally cance
led from work today. Trying to upload and print pictures from Sams, that I can scrapbook next weekend. and I put sweet and sour meat balls in the crock pot for dinner, since I had some ground beef in the fridge I needed to use up. Smelling pretty good.

This Little Cowgirl

Tugs at my heart strings. She wanted me to take pictures last weekend when she had all her cowgirl gear on, riding the rocking horse and playing her ukelele..she wants to help do everything with you. She wanted to stay and just have dinner alone at our house, which we did on Thursday. She now knows she likes poppy seed salad dressing and not just ranch. And papa talked her into trying rootbeer yesterday, which she loved.
She makes me laugh. She tells me things in the car after I pick her up from preschool. This week it was growing bigger so she can learn to drive a car(that part is so her mother) and she can drive her nana all around. we also had the conversation whether the Easter bunny is real or not -and she just turned 5. So sad.
Yesterday, she had nana and papa rolling down the hill in the backyard with her. Who else could talk us into doing that?? Grand children sure wear you out, but they make you be young at heart again.
I hate to see her growing up- she is so cute right now.

It's Friday the 13th!!!

And that can mean a lot of different things to people. For some people it is lucky, and others it is not. Kirsten was married on a Friday the 13th. And Cait wouldn't leave to travel back to the coast in January, because it was a Friday the 13th. She waited an extra day. Just 2 different views from one little family. I am taking a break from Hawaii photos to post a couple of layouts I finished this week.
Product used:Basic Grey base paper and then just scraps from the scrap bit, Ali Edwards clear stamp a few word stikcers from K&Co.
Product used:Bazzill cardstock, SEI patterned papers Title-American Craft Thickers. Embellishments from SEI, Hero Arts flourish stamp I just couldn't get going today. But I didn't need to go anywhere. Paid some bills. Curtis and I went out for lunch. Then uptown was an eyeglass store and I finally went in and ordered a new pair of glasses. They are pretty spiffy-purple and lime green. Then it was time to pick up Harlee from preschool.

The Big Island- Hawaii

We would sail during the night and arrive at the next port around 7am. On the island of Hawaii we made 2 stops- both Hilo and Kona. Hilo was our first stop and it is on the northern part of the island and receives a lot of moisture, luckily the day were there -no rain. It was a little cloudy when we started out, but cleared nicely.
Our driver drove us by a few spots in town and then we headed for Rainbow Falls and a orchid farm.

I could have spent more time at the orchid farm. The flowers were beautiful and so exquisite. And the aroma was beyond description-it was just wonderful
to take it all in.
More tomorrow from Volcano National Park. We visited more National Parks in this little trip than we ever could on the main land.
