Feeling good

So here I am at work... just thinking how great yesterday was... not sure why..just a feeling...

I have a wonderful family that I love very much!! And I'm thankful for my recent "temp" job at the Uof U... I am really liking it...

I am also thankful...that in the bad economy...I have plenty of scrap supplies...LOL and I am actually using them... I made 4.5 mini books within the past week... I will take pics and post...
One of the mini's was the Teresa Collins Mr& Mrs kit... love it!! I have it all ready now for my wedding photos..once I print them out....HAHAHA And I made 2 spring books using her system... turned out really cute... used the dear lizzy paper in those... love that line!! So I said I made 2 right... we one was for me... and once was for a dear friend... I also made another mini book and a half... these two are very similar to each other... I was making it for a friends b-day...when Zoe came along and loved it so much she wanted one just like it... but she wanted to make it... be still my heart!! Oh I should of grapped the camera... darn... it was so cute her glueing paper to chipboard... and punching and pasting and inking.... we didn't quite finish before she went off the CA to visit... so we will have to finish when she gets back... its in bright bold colrs of red, yellow, blue etc... will be perfect for summer photos... Have lots of that paper left... so I think I will have Zoe make one for her little friend in CA that she misses so much and send it as a surprise...:)

Well... just wanted to do a short post... be back later with more and pics.

New beginnings....

Ok... so here I go... I applied to be a temp at the University of Utah until I find a permenant position here in my new state of Utah... this is a huge campus... and a little confussing to find your way around... especially with the construction going on as well....But I am sure I will be able to find my way around in no time... Also I have been working on a mini book for Tyler... about the BCS Championship game... ROLL TIDE!! I got it all done... and he really seems to enjoy it..I will take pictures and post...

Sight seeing Utah

OK... well we started our day off with visiting with my Aunt Judi and my Cousin Kerri.... there were in Park City for Sundance... Rex and I enjoyed a wonderful breakfast with them at The Eating Establishment... From there Rex went to work and us girls did some sight seeing in Downtown SLC...

At first we drove from Park City to The Heritage place... sorry no pics...we didn't stop...then we drove through the University and the avenues...the mansions are amazing.... then we stopped at The Cathedral of the Madeline....WOW!!! It was built in 1909 and is just amazing! I wish I could of captured the colors in there....and just how amazingly beautiful it is... I will play with some pics in photo shop and post later. From there we went to the Capital of Utah... no I hadn't been yet... its such a beautiful building and would like to expolore it further...but we were running out of time... since Judi and Kerri had a plane to catch back to California...

But what an amazing morning... and I got to spend it with some really special people! Can't wait for them to come again!
