Its not goodbye......its see ya later friend!!!

Friday was bittersweet at Unity for me!!
I am not good at goodbye's AT ALL.....so I gave Eryn a BIG HUG and out the door I went. 
"NO TEARS....this is a good thing"...is what I kept saying over and over again.....
Well....I decided that even though this is a good thing....it was OK to cry!!!
So...on the way home from work....I CRIED AND CRIED and CRIED.....
but they were happy tears. 

Eryn....I am soo proud of you...I am soo proud to call you my friend...
YOU inspire me to be a better person each and every day.   
 YOU inspire me to reach for MY dreams.
Your smile and LAUGH are contagious....
and you are SOO SMART (wink)
I will sum it up GIRL....YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!

This is my tribute to Eryn......
Its a layout entitled
"You and I...Friends Forever"


"DON'T CRY BECAUSE ITS OVER.....
SMILE BECAUSE IT HAPPENED"


As I type this....I am getting ready to say ADIOS to MINNESOTA....
When you all read this...I will be saying ALOHA from HAWAII friends!!!

She is my Music!!!

WOWZERS.....its soo bittersweet that this week is almost over...
Bitter.....cuz I had soo much fun on this hop....
I felt soo honored to be a part of such talent!!!
Sweet..... cuz I have a weekend away planned with a friend
...and we are crafting all weekend at her house....
  As I was hanging out in my scraproom...Addisyn (my 6 yr. daughter) and I were dancing around the room to Club Cant Handle Me Now...
and INSTANT INSPIRATION!!!
I sometimes get inspired by the oddest things...
So....you can now see how I came up with my title
"SHE is my music".
I could have danced around the room with her
with absolutely NO MUSIC...!!!!

For this layout...I used the BEAUTIFUL
Sing a New Song set....
I loved it from the minute I saw it...


I had my hubby pick a number between 1 and 28
for the Here and Now Stamp Set.....
He picked
Gwen!
She is going to LOVE it!!!!  Yea Gwen!!!

It has been a great week for me.....
stop by and visit again.....
I have a weekend full of scrappin....
so you just never know what will end up on here....


Next...hop on over to the very talented Lesley
and as always...I know she will have something AMAZING for you!!!

Here and Now.......

Is it really almost over???  We are on Day 4 already!!
I had to skip out on Tuesday's hop...
with no more excuse than life just got in the way
and I was out for the day on Monday...SICK!!!
The thought of even getting up to walk to my scrapbook room
took my breath away.....and let me tell you.....I find my sanity in my scraproom so I knew there was something wrong!!!
But....I was back at it last night...
I have to admit...I think
Here and Now is my FAVORITE set...
its about life!!!
Its about being in the moment.... here and now....
I've had MANY of those moments....
but this moment in my layout really stands out in my mind
I love dolphins...and I love vacation....
and even better yet...
I LOVE to see dolphins on vacation!!!
I only ever thought I would SEE them....I never thought that I would be KISSED by one (shhh...dont tell my spoiled dog Abby), heck I even danced with this dolphin.
This dolphins name is Lucy...and she is a "resident" at
Dolphin Cove in Grand Cayman. 
And...she is one AMAZING Dolphin!!!!!

I used 3 of the stamps from the Here and Now set....
I could have used ALL of them....I love them ALL!!
I used...
Glimmer Glam, Jillibean Corrogated Alpha's, Primas, SU! Buttons and Cardstock...and I am clueless on the paper line...I guess its one of the 10,000 sheets that I had in my room...and it fit the photo perfect. 

Hmmmm...
I keep saying that we are doing RANDOM drawings for stamp sets..
But I dont think that I have been the lucky one to give away a set yet...
SOOO...maybe just MAYBE since this is MY FAVORITE set
I will get to draw today...
Leave me a comment....and I see a winner coming tomorrow!!!
(talk about letting the cat out the bag huh!!)

I am sending you back to the Ippity Blog.....
I am the last blog today....
Have a FANTASTIC DAY!!!
