Happy Friday-
Just a couple of new bags that I have been working on-Gina-you asked when I had time for everything? Well today I am dragging a little-I work from the time everyone goes to bed until I am done-usually around 12:30 am this week. It is catching up with me. Hopefully this weekend will be restful. We are heading out to the lake-it is supposed to be nice, and I am going to waterski this summer so maybe tomorrow will be the day.
Today we have a busy day planned, haircuts, cleaning house, and we are going to see the movie, "Wall-E" - Ike is off fishing today and so we are going to try and get everything packed to go, so when he gets off the river we can head up to the lake!!
I hope you have a great weekend-I will be back on Sunday with pictures and an update from the weekend!
Have fun and enjoy the sun!!!

A lot to Share!!

Happy Summer-I know I say it all the time-but boy I love summer- I have lots to share-so if you are in for a quick read-this may not be the post for you.
This weekend was so much fun-Junior Olympics for my little man was a fun time-hot but fun-he took 3rd in the 400, 200 and 100- he was very proud of these medals so I had to post them. We also took the boat out for the first time this weekend. It was sweatshirt weather on the water-but we had a ton of fun. The kids got new fishing poles from my sister and Ryan and they had a blast with them.
My class is a go, and I will be teaching it the 22nd of July. The information will be posted on the Scrapbook Hideaway website. It will be from 6-9 and I think the cost is going to be $26.95 for both the complete scrapbook and the journal. You also get to choose your color of album. There is a blue or a brown!! It should be a lot of fun!
I finally got some new material to sew some new bags. I made a pocket on the front of one just for something different. These are the big bags, so you can put a ton of stuff in them. If you are interested in one e-mail me at carrieheaphy@q.com. The cost is $30 each. Hopefully I will be getting more material soon so that I have a few to choose from.
Got to go fold Laundry and cook some lunch-I think we are off to Splash today for some summer fun.
Have a great day!
Oh yeah I almost forgot the little lunch boxes I made for the girls at the office. We have a great staff and I really appreciate how hard they work so I made these little 4th of July lunch boxes for them with some surprises inside. Shannon if you are reading this you still need to act surprised!!!!

Fun little store

Went to this fun little stationary store-Noteworthy just opened in Missoula's downtown association. It has a lot of cute notebooks and stationary right up my alley-I am probably the only person who loves going into Staples-I just love looking at all the possibilites-notebooks, pens, paper clips. I know I am weird-but I had a lot of fun looking in these two stores today.
Busy weekend ahead-birthday party and BBQ tomorrow and then my little man's last track meet on Saturday. Sat. night or Sun we will celebrate Papa's birthday. It is also my nieces 17th birthday this Saturday! Happy Birthday Kelcee and Papa!!

I Love SUMMER!!!!!

Today after basketball camp we had a lot of fun with the Hollenback boys-hours of playing with our new "swimming pool." as dad calls it-my washing machine just does continuous cycles of towels, swim trunks, towels, swim trunks-because my lil love just wears these surfer shorts and a wet suit top-no more little bikinis????? How sad they are so cute! Anyhow-we have had a ton of fun on this water "park" pool-I told our kids that if we got these we couldn't have a pass to Splash Montana and they have been okay with it so far.
Mailed out my lil 4th of July picture books for family today!!!! The kids really got into it this year which was fun! I used colored cardstock from the Creative Cafe Line and it was really easy.
My little love started her cheerleading camp tonight. Go figure, she won't wear bikinis but she loves cheerleading camp!!! It was so fun to watch all those little girls (and two boys)!!! But, while we were out - (I should have known something was up, because when I called twice, my husband was out of breath-and couldn't talk) when we got home my husband called us down to watch our newest family video. He had my son tie a piece of dental floss to a football and then throw the football to get his front tooth out! So here we were FOREVER and EVER looking for this tooth outside that will never be found. Anyhow we were looking and my lil man said, let's go in Dad is a dentist-he knows the tooth fairy, "Dad will you just call her!!!!"
So as he fell asleep, he yelled to his dad, "Dad don't forget to make your phone call, it is getting late.!!"
Never a dull moment around here-we should have written a book about the many ways to extract baby teeth, by Dr. Heaphy-we have some interesting stories!!!

Forget me Not Class!

Okay I totally have not been good about blogging-too many other things going on right now I guess-so here it goes Stac-I am sorry that I have not been good-
My first class went well-except the instructor (me) forgot to take a photo with everyone in it-sorry Kaylene, Shannon, Michelle, and Cherie????? Next time right?
Thanks to Steph and her cute doodle (by the way, she has a darling kit for sale right now) check out her blog site to order it!
The class was a lot of fun, and thanks to all of you for taking it. Thinking about doing a travel/trip mini-book if Gina still has room for more classes this summer.
Summer? It is really winter/fall here now-I must go and cover our garden!

Ok I may not have any friends after this. . .

Our girls scrapbooking weekend was so fun!! I just had to post these pictures. There are more to come when I get them from everyone else-after this post I probably won't get anymore.
Explanation of the photos:
Group picture with our mascot bear

Julie in her camo outfit ready for the woods

Stacy threatening us with our lives that if we posted this picture she would...
love ya Stac-

Gifts-I made them all bring a homemade gift under $10 and they were not happy with me-until they all got their cute items that everyone made!! All great ideas!!

Julie...okay this one need some explaining and relates to the last picture-Julie decided to take my little mans motorcycle for a spin-after about 6 or so minutes we couldn't hear the bike anymore. So Amber went running looking for her. (Kaylene and I got in the car....running????) Needless to say she got lost and Amber found her!

I love you guys thanks for a fun weekend!!

A must have book!!

I have just finished reading Lisa Bearnson's Book-50 Moments that Matter Most.
It is such a great book and a great inspiration. I loved this book because I have
been looking for great new ideas, and this book has really given me a "focus." If you have the opportunity to grab this book it is a good one to have as part of your scrapbooking collection.
Off to Lowe's to find shelving for our garage!!!!

A must have book!!
