They Don't Get Any Cuter

Here's my son and his girlfriend. Aren't they cute??

I had never taken the train from West Point into New York so we did! What a blast. The train is fairly comfortable and pretty reasonable in price. What is priceless is all the sights you get to see. If I lived on the east coast I would love to use the train to get around. Maybe I would feel differently if I lived there but as a tourist it was a blast

Enjoy your day!

Army Football

So in October I went back to New York to see my son, take in a football game at Michie stadium and do some shopping & sightseeing.

I cannot tell you how amazing it is to be at West Point watching Army football. And yes, before you ask....we lost!! Grrrrr

Enjoy your day!

A CHRISTMAS VERSION OF 1 CORINTHIANS 13

If I decorate my house perfectly with plaid bows, strands of twinkling lights and shiny
balls, but do not show love, I'm just another decorator.
If I slave away in the kitchen, baking dozens of Christmas cookies, preparing gourmet
meals and arranging a beautifully adorned table at mealtime, but do not show love, I'm
just another cook.
If I work at the soup kitchen, carol in the nursing home and give all that I have to
charity, but do not show love, it profits me nothing.
If I trim the spruce with shimmering angels and crocheted snowflakes, attend a myriad of
holiday parties and sing in the choir's cantata but do not focus on Christ, I have missed
the point.
Love stops the cooking to hug the child.
Love sets aside the decorating to kiss the husband.
Love is kind, though harried and tired.
Love doesn't envy another's home that has coordinated Christmas china and table linens.
Love doesn't yell at the kids to get out of the way, but is thankful they are there to be
in the way.
Love doesn't give only to those who are able to give in return but rejoices in giving to
those who can't.
Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails.
Video games will break, pearl necklaces will be lost, golf clubs will rust, but giving
the gift of love will endure.

West Point Moms

So you know my son is a cadet at the United States Military Academy at West Point, right? And this is one proud Momma!

So to celebrate together with other proud Mommas is always a pleasure. To talk about what our cadets are going through, the highs & the lows with others who "get it" is therapeutic. And add in a little food & wine is just a bonus.

Studio J again makes my being able to keep up with my scrapbooking so much easier.

Enjoy your day!

Sedona With My Family

Sedona is beautiful. My family & I spent an enjoyable afternoon driving down, eating a great lunch and visiting the art museums.

In the picture on the left you can see my mom and sister in front of a set of those beautiful mountains.

Enjoy your day!

Bio Dome

So, believe it or not, I love to tour interesting attractions. It doesn't matter what  if it is an old mission, a beautiful park or a Bio Dome.

 

When I was down in Arizona celebrating my birthday with my sister & mom we took a road trip down to the Bio Dome. This structure was built as 7 different living environments and 8 people lived inside for 2 years without coming out.

 

Now I love to grow my own fruits & veggies BUT to grow your own coffee?? Not!! But that is what these folks did. It was so interesting to see how they lived, what the plant life was like, the experiments they did and the living quarters.

 

Studio J made this a fun way to remember my trip!

 

Enjoy your day

50 Is Nifty

                                     Studio J is awesome!

 November was the anniversary month for Studio J so the layouts were $5.00. Normally they are $6.95 which is a great price BUT $5.00 is even better!!

I only had 5 pictures from my birthday dinner but no problem with Studio J. This layout came together in a very short amount of time and was FUN!

Try Studio J for yourself on my website. There is no charge for playing. If you'd like a private lesson, email me and we can set up some time to show you all that can be done with Studio J

Enjoy your day!
