A Room With A View....
Our "Anniversary Celebration" trip to Seattle was AMAZING!!! We had just as much fun as we did a short 40 years ago on our honeymoon to Disneyland!! :0) We stayed at the Westin, downtown, and the view from our room was incredible...notice the beautiful way that the two skyscrapers frame Mt. Rainier!
The view from our room at sunset and after dark...
Live music at the Starbucks at Pike Place Market...
More pictures from our day at Pike Place Market, one of our very favorite places in Seattle...





On our last night, our INCREDIBLY THOUGHTFUL kids (and I mean that in all seriousness)treated us to a very special Anniversary dinner at The Metropolitan---an amazing restaurant in downtown Seattle. (Our server and the restaurant manager--who came by to wish us "Happy Anniversary" both commented that we "raised terrific kids!" We couldn't agree more!!) They gave us a card that said "You have reservations at 6:15 at the Metropolitan"...all we had to do was show up and "eat, drink and be merry!!"
The weekend was one we will always remember, it's so much fun to celebrate "40 years" with your very best friend!!

"WE ARE FAMILY" mini album...
I'm back...teaching classes again after a little break for the summer! I just created this mini album using the adorable new Bazzill Board Books. Bazzill covered the chipboard with textured cardstock to make book binding even easier! Besides the cover there are 10 smooth cardstock inner pages (20 page layouts) and 2 top-loading sheet protectors. I have created this album using lots of great "family" themed quotes and fun embellishments! I hope you can join me at the Pullman Paper Pals on Thursday evening, September 11th, from 6:30 to 8:30!!

Merry Maids...
Jim and I are back from Phoenix, and we cleaned our fingers to the bone....really!!! We don't think that the tenants that lived there ever cleaned a single thing, it was pretty bad---but, the good thing is that it is a really nice house and it cleaned up perfectly!! (It's cleaner than my house, now!!!) And, we discovered the cleaning secret of all time---Mr. Clean Magic Erasers!!! They will clean anything and everything, love them!!!! Here is the house we were working on... 

If you live in the Phoenix area and need a house to rent....we've got a deal for you!!! More later after I have a chance to unpack, do laundry, etc, etc., etc!!!
