Day 2 in Wonderland

Day two of Alice was just as magical as day one. We thought we had seen it all but Kim had many more surprises up her sleeves for the group. When we walked into the room Saturday am we were shocked to see that the room had been transformed beautifully with round tables. The center pieces were so pretty. At each place was our name tags and an Alice bag filled with wonderful goodies from generous sponsors.
Breakfast was served which was yummy with fresh fruits, mini muffins, croissants, and fresh coffee, tea and juices. The best way to start the day.

Our day started with Jamie's class a Drink Me Bottle. We had so much fun embellishing our bottles. Lots of laughter as Earleen personalized her rabbit with earrings! He was pretty cute.

Following a delicious lunch Christine taught her Mad Hatters Hat. Again lots of laughter and fun decorating our hats. I am still working on mine so pics later.

Throughout the day wonderful giveaways were presented to lucky ladies.

After our last class we had our swap exchanges. Cheryl hosted the Fat Book Swap and Rebecca the Pack of cards swap. Both were so much fun to participate in and receive.

And to end our wonderful day the most beautiful beautiful cake was presented. Val gifted the cake to us and it was unbelievable.

We grabbed dinner and headed to Disneyland. It was a great weekend and hard to say goodbye to the most wonderful adventure.

Here are a few of the pics from my day in Alice

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...
