Update!!!

OK, here's the latest news regarding the status of "Drivin' 55". For a variety of reasons, gas prices, the floundering economy, lackluster sales and Baby Jack, we have determined to hang up the travelin' shoes and stay put in Georgia. Although we will miss seeing this beautiful country, my grandson needs his grandparents!
We have seen so many beautiful places in the last year. To name a few... the thunderous beauty and energy of Niagara Falls, the coolness of the summer days in Manchester, New Hampshire, the beautiful corn fields and flat lands of the Midwest, the awesome and majestic Rocky Mountains, the thrilling views and drive to Pike's Peak, the calm, simple beauty of the desert in Arizona, the overwhelming engineering of Hover Dam, the serene sunsets of the Pacific coast, the incredible rock formations on highway 8 near the Mexico border and there are so many more that I cannot name them all.
Aside from the great memories we collected, one thing was always consistent, the people of this great country were and ARE awesome. We are a helpful, caring, friendly and kind nation. Although we may look different and live in different parts of the country, we all share a love our our great nation. We all love our families. We all want peace. And most of the women love to document their memories by means of scrapbooking. Afterall, that IS why we were "Drivin' 55"!
So with that said, we are our pondering the next chapter of our life. Where will it take us? You will have to stay tuned!

It would be fun to get together and share scrapping ideas. When everything settles down, we will need to schedule dinner. We are up in Cumming right now so I have to think about the commute!

A Peak at 2010 for Fellow Taureans

Year 2010 Overview Taurus always gets tagged with things like "pleasure-seeking" and "materialistic." That's probably unfair, in most cases. You're just as good at dishing out the pleasure as you are at seeking it, and who doesn't like a few nice things around? Sadly, there's been just too much struggle in your life the last couple of years when it comes to those two very important parts of your life. Thankfully, 2010 marks the end of that long uphill struggle . Your pleasurable pursuits have been a little more restricted than you'd like over the course of the last two years or so. That's over with now, so ... game on! The big events this year will not so much be a matter of major happenings as they will be things that have been in the works and are slowly revealing themselves . In the last two years, you've put a lot of work into what makes you happy, while Saturn transited your solar Fifth House. Now that those pressures are finally bei...

Christmas in July Give A Way

What better way to celebrate the middle of summer with a give a way for one lucky blogging friend? Just because I want to, I will be giving away a Christmas box with an accordion album. This happens to be my design and I have already given one away last December. Sorry, Kate , you will have to sit this one out! This paper mache box holds an accordion album inside. More than likely, I will make a minor modification to the box before shipping it to its new home. I really love these vintage papers from Melissa Frances Scrapbook . Her collection of designs and patterns reminds me of a little sea side cottage. I can smell the ocean spray right now. These papers bring me back to a time when I think I would have loved to live…The Victorian Age. But let’s not fool anyone, I want all of the modern day luxuries. This paper on the left takes me back to a time when I played with cut outs. I was never a doll kid, but give me cut outs and I was happy for days. S o if you think you would ...
