I have been tagged. 10/20/30 years ago

I have been tagged by Katie and Judy.. so here it is..

What were you doing 10/20/30 years ago...

Oct. 1997.. I had a busy one year old.. I was a SAHM.. not sure how we survived paycheck to paycheck.. We lived in a smaller house about 2 miles from here. Probably at this time I was sewing a Halloween costume for Mckay. He was Hercules I think.. He watched that movie over and over. If I can find a photo I will post it later.

Oct 1987.. Oh this would have been my first year of college. I was studying to be an accountant. I worked at Sears part-time and went to school. I bought my first car 81 black Mustang while working there..

Oct 1977..I cant remember much I was maybe in 2ND grade. This was the year I had like 10 teachers in one year. my main teacher was pregnant.. I hated school a lot that year..well I hated school most of the time.

Some of my LO's from the Scrapbook Retreat..


















I have a few more LO's that didn't come home with me.. I scrapped some of Beth's photos and I didn't take a pic of those before she left.. duh!

And one of my pages is in a contest... So I will wait before I share it.. Katie and I are going to win that by the way!

I should have taken photos of the 2 pagers together but you get the idea..

And since Katie's Blog challenge this week is to post a blue LO I think I got that covered too...

What a fun weekend!!!


This is Pam she is so cute!


This is Kim.. she was the host.

This is Janelle.. she is quite a talker.. NOT


This is Beth.. she was showing us her blue tongue from the bubble gum Jeanne gave us.


Jeanne and Katie fighting over cookies.. there were lots to go around not sure why they both wanted that one.

Katie loves the m & m cookies


Jodie is my newest friend.. she even lives close... she is a great photographer.. I will have to post a link to her website.




Katie got the prize she really wanted!










Oh my gosh is all I can say..

We had some much fun!!

We scrapped a total of 250 pages between the eight of us.

Let me post some pic so you can see..

I will post some more fun stuff later..

I hope you enjoy looking at these!!

Last PT maybe?

Went to hopefully my last PT for my ankle yesterday..

I was told to make an appointment for 2 weeks, if I don't have any problems before then I'm done.. If not I need to come back.

Oh I also got a free t-shirt from my PT.. Free right.. cost a lot more than that..

Yesterday I went out for a 2 mile run. Its been over 2 months since I have done that.

Today I rode my bike 7 miles or so..

I have 2 days to get my stuff packed for the weekend retreat..

I have goody bags to put together and some more laundry to finish..

I also need to work on cleaning the house.. I know it wont look the same when I get home though.

I will miss a lot of things going on this weekend here. But sometimes you have to make sacrifices for a weekend of fun.

So maybe I wont hang out on the computer to much today.. yeah right.

Have a great day!

Its finally cooler here...

It finally is getting cooler here.. Looks and feels like fall.

Our pumpkins that we planted are dead.. Not enough water I guess.

Fall break is over and things are back to normal routine around here.

I have 4 days until a weekend retreat to scrapbook. I cant wait should be so much fun! I need to set a goal of how many pages I want to get completed.

I changed the colors again on my blog.. I didnt really like the way it looked before..

The picture of the leaves at the top is a tree from our yard..

They are just starting to turn here. Should be peak in a few weeks.

Mckay has 2 more meets and cross country is over for the year. :(

This is where we stayed..

Lake pic..at sunset.. I think this is my favorite pic!!
Pic of Michael and Seth the first night at the lake.. Michael is testing out his new pole..


This is the a pic of the beach cottage from the beach.. The cottage was overlooking the beach.. It a nice hike up to the cottage..


another pic of the lake...



Gosh I couldn't decide which photos to load.. there are so many..

This is a huge lake 1000 plus acres I think I read somewhere..

The boys did a lot of fishing..


We also got lots of exercise.. biking, tennis, hiking, walking..


I got to run a few days.. Oh so nice..


I got to go to a scrapbook store.. not oh 5-10 miles from the lake.. Now the boys knew why I choose this place..


It was beautiful! Very peaceful and quiet..


There wasn't much of a cell phone coverage there either..


I did a lot of relaxing..


The boys said they caught bigger fish and more of them when the camera wasn't around..hehe..


They have a few pic on their cell phones..

I hope you enjoyed looking at the photos.. I have lots more!! I cant wait to scrap some of these..
