I can't believe I made it to Friday!!!!!!!!!!!

It has been one long tough week. I thought last week was hard. This week seemed to be even harder. For that reason alone I will not be posting any pictures. Maybe I will do something later this weekend or next week.

I do have a Panthers game I get to watch tonight. Going to Rural Hall to watch it in HD. Most importantly, however, we are going to eat a big fat meal beforehand. Frankly, that might be the best part of my day. At least I hope it's at the top of the list somewhere.

Oh and I am so close to vacation I can feel it. I am just a little over 4 Months away. I know that sounds like a lot, but as fast as this summer has gone it will be here before we know it.

Well I guess that is all I have today. Please comment so I know you are reading!!!

It's Friday!

I thought I would show some of my favorite Disney vacation pictures this week. Believe me after the week I had I wish I were on vacation.

This picture is the Tree of Life at the entrance to the Animal Kingdom. Animal Kingdom happens to be one of my favorite parks.



This next picture is from Epcot. This is the also from the entrance of the park. The sign with the word Epcot and the wand have recently come down or are in the process. Lots of fun shopping at Epcot.



I saved the best picture for last. My husband took this picture. (Actually, I'm pretty sure he took all these pictures.) I like this one the best though. I think we must have been standing there for like 20 minutes while he was setting up the shot. He took a few shots and tinkered with things like the shutter speed and the zoom. Believe it or not, and those who know me won't, I didn't mind. I just kinda sat there and watched him take the pictures. This is from MGM studios, or as it will be known after January, Disney's Hollywood Studios.


Well I guess that's all I have today. I am not sure when I will be posting again. If the Panthers win Saturday night then probably on Sunday. If they don't then it may not be until next week sometime. I also have a crop next we so I won't have any vacation pictures on Friday.

Update for Fan Fest and other stuff

I thought I would keep it real simple today. I'm suppose to be on my way to bed, but I am not quite ready yet. So I thought I would do a little posting.

Fan Fest was HOT!!!!! I cannot stress that enough. My husband and I had a good time, even though we got there a little late. Don't ask me to tell you why, just know that my husband "ALWAYS" knows where he is going, but not necessarily which road is the right one to get there. We still got to see some practice and sit in a seat near the goal post. I am eagerly anticipating the beginning of the season. Preseason is just a few days away.

I also wanted to mention to Beth that I fixed the page that I had wrong in my scrapbook. I think it looks better than it did before. Thank you for catching my spelling error. I need to let you proofread all my pages before I glue them(Ha! Ha!).

My boss is taking a bunch of us out to lunch tomorrow. Wow,you say that's a good thing, right? WRONG! We have to talk about what's wrong with our company and how we can fix it. I always promise myself that I will not talk, but because even though I take very small bites, I still have a very large mouth. Well, I guess we will see what happens.

You all need to tell me you what pictures you want to see in the "Friday's are for Vacations" post. I could do any number of subjects. If I don't get any suggestions I might subject you to Walt Disney World Vacations. I mean I only have about 2500 hundred to choose from. No that is not an exaggeration. I will actually have time to post this Friday, because I don't have a crop to go to this week.

Okay I guess I'm done with my random ramblings. I should get to bed anyway.

Have a GREAT whatever!

Crafts etc...

Before I show you what I have been up to in the last 2 weeks I have to update my events calendar

Panther Fan Fest 2 days
First Preseason Game 9 days
And last but not least

127 days until my next Walt Disney World Vacation.

Also I want to mention, before I get to the crafts; to my friend Beth that she should let her husband go to his Star Party in October. My husband wants to go and your husband is the only one he can go with. REALLY! I don't think he has mentioned it because he is scared you won't let him go.

This is my Honey Bun cake. I made it for a departing coworker who loved his honey buns. The way that I got them to stay on there is I used a little tape to keep them from moving. I also put a paper bowl in the center to keep the buns in a circular shape. It made it easier to carry it a cake carrier.

Here is one of my scrapbook pages from our DC trip. I used my little cricut(cricket) to cut out my title. I also used my stickles (glitter glue) to outline some of the stars for a little embellishment. Of course my husband took those pictures.


These pages I am posting for my friend Joel. I was telling him how proud I was of these pages. I used some stickers and my letters made by my cricut. I also stickled the letters a little. I don't think that shows up as nice as it actually looks. My husband and I took these pictures.
I am going to another crop tomorrow again and some more stuff will get done. Hopefully, I'll post again early in the week. Have a great day.
