Wednesday

Thanks to Michelle D I now have a new passion. Pumpkin cookie and a pumpkin spice lattee from Starbuck's. So far I have only indulged in the cookie twice. Now the pumkin spice lattee without the whip cream mind you I have had many since last Friday. Love the fall and pumkin spice lattee. Can't wait to introduce my sister and folks to these sweet treats


Our monthly Stampin Up class at Jan's. 3 very fun cards


Colleen is cleaning again. My new shabby chic table from Colleen. Love this table.

This has been a pretty calm week to date. Only 2 more days to go till the weekend. Looking forward to class on Sat and painting on Sunday ha ha

Final Goodbyes

Image
It has been a gut wrenching sad and emotional two months for the Struchen's. We have said our final goodbyes with many tears, laughter, sadness and breaking hearts. Dad passed on Feb 25th and now Mom has joined him on March 10th.  We knew Mom was very ill but none of us expected that she would go so very quickly. And now as my sister says we are orphans.  We are still family but right now without Dad and Mom to bring us and keep us all together as they had worked so hard to do all these years. As I had written on Caring Bridge Dad was our hero, our mentor our DAD.  It is so hard to realize there are no more early am text messages or emails  no more 4pm Sunday phone calls.  There is a giant void in my heart Mom seemed to think she always took a back seat to Dad.  But she was always there to help us, give us strength hold us to a higher standard.  "We Struchen women are tough" she used to tell me when I was needing a listening ear.  "You c...

Where did the weekend go????

Image
It doesn't seem to matter if I have 3 days off or a normal Saturday & Sunday off, it is never ever enough. Here it is already 7pm and I am getting ready for work tomorrow. Last early day and then back to the old routine. So what did I accomplish this weekend?? not too much as far as the home front goes. Just the usual laundry and clean but no yard work. Now on the creative level I had a great inspiring weekend. I rode to Payson with Earleen and Annette on Sat am for a class by the 2 gypsy girls Debbie and Paula . I had my doubts I could construct a house that would stand. Due the patience of the 2 Gyspsie Girls my house is still standing today:) I loved this class. The roof holds the little album and the clever use of the 7 Gypsy elastics made the page signatures so easy. After class we joined Annette and her family at their reunion. Invited crashers we were. We feasted on Alaskan Salmon thank you Robert and all the yummy goodies from a reunion. A couple of q...

Catching Up

Image
It has been a couple of weeks since my last blog post. I thought I better get going and catch you all up on what is going on in my life. I signed up for Karla and Beth's online Romantic Gothic Ghosts. I am loving each and every tutorial. My latest is this pillow. It was actually supposed to be a tote that Beth made but I decided to make a pillow out of it. Beth's little notebook Karla's banner. Again I changed it up and hung it on a floral wreath wire thing. Not sure what you call those things The last weekend of August was filled with celebrating Miss Maija . We celebrated her 50th birthday with a surprise party that Earleen was the hostess. Annette hosted a brunch Sat am before we all headed out shopping. We came from near and far and the best thing was we all kept the secret so well. Maija was Surprised for sure. From Friday and Saturday It was a weekend of food, fun, shopping and make-n-takes. The best of weekends by far. I just didn't get many pics as I g...
