Aren’t these two adorable?!  It reminds me of when Abby and Keegan were little, wearing matching costumes for Halloween. My favorite was when they were Mickey and Minnie Mouse.

I hope you’ve noticed I haven’t been posting much.  I came home from Wisconsin sick and haven’t felt great ever since.  Abby and Keegan have also been sick.  My construction project has turned the house into a messy haunted looking house.  I’ve been asked to design for Craft Project Central again in December, but the project outline is due this week and the complete project is due in two weeks.  Meanwhile my twelve projects I’m doing as a convention sample designer for Stampin’ Up need to be done in one week.  I’m also trying to hold it together as a BSF group leader, Mom and wife.   Needless to say, every time I stamp it’s for something I can’t put on my blog yet.  I am going to stamp two more Halloween projects and then I promise I’m done with Halloween.  I know some of you don’t like Halloween, but please stick with me.  I hope to have cute things you will like soon. Thanks for your patience.

Blessings,

Beth 🙂

Candy Cane Lane Bag in a Box

I told you recently I had a Christmas Bag in a Box in my head and here it is.  Such a cute and simple box!  Who do you need to give a little something to this Christmas?  This little box could be exactly what you need.  I know some teenagers who would love to receive this box with money inside. 🙂

The directions to make the box are here.

I had a great time at the Stamping Business Builder’s Retreat in Wisconsin.  Lisa Pretto does a great job!

While I was gone, the floors were finished in my dining room and stamping office.  The windows and sliding door will get installed next Wednesday and Thursday.  My Stamp N Storage arrived too!

Blessings,

Beth 🙂

Have you ordered the Candy Cane Lane DSP yet?  If not, you should.  I can’t stop making projects with it. This is a collage I made for Pinterest.

Those of you who knew Abby and I were visiting the University of Oklahoma on Sunday and Monday might be curious to know how it went?  Well, by the time we got there after nine hours of driving we both decided it was too far and we probably shouldn’t have come.  I enjoyed being in the car with Abby and I laughed harder than I have in a long time.  Abby patiently taught me the songs and story of Hamilton, the musical.   She has all 23 songs memorized.

We got up Monday morning and went to the campus. My goodness it is beautiful! OU really wants National Merit Scholar finalists and offers them huge financial incentives to go there, including five years of free tuition among other things. Let’s just say OU is in the running and I’m trying to get used to the idea that I will rarely see my sweet daughter. At the end of the day an adviser was telling Abby that it would be OK if she wasn’t able to come home for Thanksgiving because of the weather, because she would have a community of people to spend Thanksgiving with. It was at that point I started tearing up. Abby needs to be at my house for Thanksgiving, not stuck in Oklahoma! OK,so I have a few regrets about raising a confident, independent young lady. Actually, I want Abby to do what’s best for Abby and I promise not to write about being sad that she’s so far away.

Every square inch of my house is covered in dust from the construction project, so it’s time for me to leave again.  I’ll be in Wisconsin for four days at a Stamping Business Building conference that my awesome upline Lisa Pretto is having.  The good news is all my team will benefit from everything I’ll be learning.  It should be a beautiful drive with all the trees changing colors.

My BSF group helped with the children’s program today.  I got the “pink” class which is the youngest babies.  I love babies!  There was a baby named Caleb who has been crying every week at BSF.  I took it as a personal challenge to hold and play with Caleb.  He was pretty happy most of the time.  The children’s leader asked me to stop being a group leader and come back next week and be Caleb’s friend again.  It’s tempting, but I would miss my ladies!

Abby had her swim team senior recognition tonight.  I can’t believe the four years of high school are coming to an end.

Hope all is well with you.

Blessings,

Beth 🙂
