It's been a long, long time...again.

To both my readers (Wendy and Jenn) sorry i haven't been on in forever!
Just had a fantastic girls weekend in Peoria with a stop in Normal IL. I promise i will post some photos in the next few days.
Thanks ladies...it was a super fun weekend!

Auntie Em, Auntie Em...

Quite an interesting afternoon here in our town. We're just sitting here on my day off watching a little TV when a Tornado Warning comes across the TV saying that there is a tornado headed in our direction and would be here in about 15-20 minutes.

We just chilled for a few minutes more then the sirens started going off. We ran upstairs, threw the foster cats in a carrier, caught our cats and brought them all into the basement and waited. Luckily my scrap room is in the basement so we turned on the TV to the weather channel and i straightened up my scrap desk.

It was defiantly a little scary but everyone is okay and we survived. I don't even know if a tornado actually touched down, but there was a sighting. I would prefer to not have to go through that again.

Right now the sun is shining. Stange!

Here is a card i made for a wedding we went to on Saturday. The groom works at the company that Joel was laid off from. It was a lovely wedding and we really enjoyed ourselves. I will try and post a few photos later.
Not much else has been going on.
Hope all is well with everyone.

Hi all!
I just wanted to post this photo i took the other day. Today i am going to Rockford for my nieces bridal shower.
The kittens are truly a handful, much more work than we thought they would be. They are growing and becoming more social which is wonderful.
I've been scrapping our Hilton Head vacation pretty regularly, i will try to post some of my layouts this week...no guarantee, you know how i suck at this blogging thing.

Have a great weekend!

I can't do this...

No matter how i try i really can't make this blog-thing work.
I am posting a couple photos.

The first are the 4 beautiful baby girls we are fostering. We need names, any ideas are welcom.
2. Joel took this photo after a rainfall last week. He is so proud of it i thought i would share.
3. I took this photo at the bridging today (see #4) i just think the colors are so beautiful.
4. Monet had her bridging ceremony today, she went from a Daisy to a Brownie. I am so proud of her.

I'll be back soon...well, i'll try.

I suck at blogging...

I'll be the first to admit it.
I have been so busy lately. Cut backs at work have me working more and working harder. Believe me, i don't mind, but i am exhausted.
I have been doing a lot of scrapping so i will post some of my stuff soon.

Joel and I have been volunteering with the Animal Outreach Society of McHenry County. They find homes for resuced cats, it is such a good feeling to do something that really matters. I love it everytime a cat gets adopted, it gives me warm fuzzies.

Joel has been going every Saturday and Sunday to learn how to do adoptions. He's even done some on his own now. I am very proud of him, he has become so passionate about it.

I'll be back soon, promise.
