Quarry Quest 2010

I don't know if you can get any cuter than that! I love my Lucy! All year Lucy has been looking forward to going to "the big quarry." It is a special day for her and daddy filled with cool cranes, digging, dumping, and playing in the sand/dirt (one of her favorite things).

Free Premier Weekend

There are many reasons to love Heritage Makers, but one of the best is the unlimited creativity available with a Premier account. Premier is an unrivaled collection of digital art, including nearly 50,000 art pieces and thousands of pre-designed templates. As a Heritage Maker you can get unlimited access to this incredible resource through a monthly or yearly subscription.

If you’ve ever wanted to try Premier, we have an incredible opportunity for you. On October 14-17 Heritage Makers is offering a FREE Premier Weekend! During this four-day period you can have full reign over the entire art and template collection at absolutely no cost! What’s more, Lynda Angelastro, a leading expert in the digital scrapbooking industry, will kick off the event with a Studio Master Class offering project suggestions and a review of new art options. She will also conduct other classes during the weekend and host a “Show-and-Tell” session on Saturday.

Important: All projects created using Premier art during FREE Premier Weekend must be published by Monday, October 18th at 12 noon MDT. After that time you will not be able to edit your projects without a Premier account. Once you’ve published (completed) your project, it can be ordered at any time. To extend your Premier status beyond the free trial period, contact your Heritage Makers consultant for special pricing.

New Roof!

We have a new roof! Thanks Allstate. We hope (fingers crossed) that will take care of the leak in the master bedroom. They were able to get it all done in one day. Lucy and I had fun enjoying the nice weather watching them work and riding Lucy's scooter. I thought the nails were pretty cool, and Lucy was having fun with the leaves in the back yard. Here she is showing me some of her "leaf friends" This morning I went out to take a picture of the final project.

Cheesehead

I am thinking about Halloween costumes and was looking through old photos and found this. Lucy was a cheesehead for her first Halloween. I think she is pretty stinkin cute!

First Day of Preschool

Today was Lucy's first day of (real) Preschool. She was very excited and picked out her own clothes. She walked right in, put her lunch and backpack in her cubby, and started playing with the ponies. I was very excited too...I'm free! (well for 3 hours)

Snow Storm? or Blizzard?

Lucy and Lena playing quietly in a basement? There must be trouble...

Lucy and Lena emptied the styrofoam peanuts out of a huge bean bag chair, creating their own snow paradise...or blizzard. This picture doesn't do it justice. I think it was about 8 inches deep and took the girls and me probably and hour to clean it all up (with the additional help from Kathleen and her mom Bonnie in the end). Lucy was so excited to show me the snow in the basement. I couldn't be too mad, although she better not do it again.

Pipsqueak

Dear Blog, I'm finally getting around to updating you, but where do you begin when you have been absent for most of the year? For starters, Lucy is always doing funny/silly things. One day I went into her "house" (her play area behind the couch) and found this. Lucy put her hamster to sleep—ear plugs and all. When I disturbed him she said, "Mom, don't squeak him again—he's tired!" Sorry Pipsqueak, sorry Lucy, and sorry blog.

Love, Megan
