Mid-Week Peek at My Week

Spoiler Alert - there is no card/project in this post. (Sorry!)

I wasn't even going to do a mid-week peek post today, but then I decided at the last minute - yep at 4:30 this morning - that the week has been too good not to document it. So here I am.

I've had a GREAT week. Some highlights include...

I went to LifeWay's Women's Forum in Nashville, Tennessee. Picture this - 900+ women (well, mostly women) gathered together for worship and keynote speakers and breakout conferences. WOW! Travis Cottrell and his group led us in amazing worship. He truly is a dynamic musician and worship leader! Listen to him HERE. Of course there were some great Bible study leaders... keynote speakers, too. Even the wife of the husband/wife founders of Hobby Lobby spoke, along with their young adult daughter. And my favorite keynote speaker was Trudy Cathy White, whose parents founded Chick fil A.

I also jumped ahead of myself - I usually work on a word of the year and goals for the upcoming year during the week between Christmas and New Year, but this year is going to be a bit wild during that time. We are going to have a houseful... our son and his girlfriend will be here from Wisconsin and our daughter and her boyfriend will be here from Alaska. So I knew I'd be having way too much fun during that time to do any goal-setting. So I did it this week.

Our son Jeremy and his girlfriend Brandi

Our daughter Brittney and her boyfriend David

I love these four - and how much they enjoy each other.

Yes, it looks like we'll be having a lot of fun at Christmas time.

















OH! And BIG news - I won a prize at Falliday on SCS!!! Woo Hoo!!!!!! (a $50 gift card from The Cat's Pajamas!)

Even though I was gone part of the week, I managed to make 20 cards and one tag this week. Not too shabby.

I also took time to alphabetize the stamp companies in my 20 bins of cling/unmounted/clear stamps. Whew! That was a BIG job!

And of course there's been the usual cooking, cleaning, and laundry... that reminds me how fortunate I am to have an amazing family to share my life with.

Yes, it's been a GREAT week.

SCORE TIME: Would I give this week a “thumbs up” or a “thumbs down”?
