It was a busy week here, so I'm glad it's finally the weekend. We had lots of snow mid-week with a day home from school, lots of errands to run today and GROCERIES to buy now that my military ID has been renewed. Last night we watched a few movies from Red Box and today we've got to clean the snow off the roofs....there's more dang snow coming. Hopefully tomorrow we'll have nothing to do but craft, LOL. Yeah, like my husband crafts.
Both of these pictures were taken on Tuesday BEFORE we got 12 more inches of snow. PS. I used the Hipstamatic App on my iPhone. LOVE these!
Urgh, I am so beyond ready for spring -- but a little get away to somewhere warm and sunny would be a nice respit. Hey, a girl can dream can't she??
I apologize that I don't have any crafty pictures to share today, but I did take a minute to make a nice list of the courses I'll be teaching over at My Creative Classroom over the next few months.
Let me know if you have any questions...thanks for stopping by -- enjoy your weekend!
