The Borders ON

My MI daughter came over with Sarah and she uploaded the border and the picture of Julie and Sarah.
We just got back from a trip to Michael's where we got some supplies for new projects and some princess stickers for Juliet. Juju is into princess, especially Sleeping Beauty right now , and stickers, so the princess stickers were perfect for her and the price was right-$ 1.40. So they will be off to Oregon soon with her other valentine gifts. I sure do miss that girl and her parents. We are trying to plan a trip in late March so we all can get together again.

As you can see I figured out how to add some color, but haven't been able to get a background paper. I saw a beautiful one on www.Backgroundfairy.com that I tried to put on my blog, but I haven't figured out to cut and paste. My MI daughter is coming over tomorrow so she should be able to figure out how to help me. She is the mom of my second granddaughter Sarah who is eleven weeks old. What a cutie. Perhaps her mom can help me upload a picture of her. My husband is totally enamored of her. Sarah has the most beautiful smile. Next week I get to watch her for two days a week, as her mom has to go back to work. That is just for the month of February and then she will go to daycare.
My other granddaughter lives in Or. Her name is Juliet and she is 2 1/2 years old. She is a real doll and just cracks me up with her talk. Of course I just love two year olds! They are so eager to help, learn, and talk. What a joy.
Check back tomorrow and perhaps I'll have some pictures up. Let's hope I catch on to operating a computer.

Well, here goes. As I said in my profile I do not know much about computers so this blog will look rather plain until I figure it out. I got into this blog world by reading Nancy's blog, Herartnest. Read it and see the wonderful things that she does. She is a very talented woman! From her blog I went to Karla's cottage. She was having a puppy love tag swap which I quickly joined. Can't wait to get my tag book. Check out Karla's blog too. She has a great boutique that I bought from, and was very pleased with my purchases.
My main interests in the creative world is quilting and mixed media art. I am not an artist in any way, but just love to make things. It just takes me some time to get started. I haven't figure out just what the start button looks like, so it is hard for me to find.
I am off to find out how to fancy this blog up a bit. I want my banner to reflect the things that matter to me the most.
