Fun over the weekend

Over the weekend I had a bit of fun and did some playing around.

Here on the very top are dice that I made pink with Alcohol inks and then the bottlecaps that I played around with. I made one a pin and a couple are magnets.

The next picture are marble magnets made out of those half marble things by the floral section.

You can click on either picture to make them bigger. :)

What Makes Me Happy

I thought I would do another blog entry. :) Two days in a row, wow, lol. ;) And since I love lists, I'm going to do this in list format....What makes me happy.

*Waking up before the alarm goes off. I don't feel so rushed then.....
*Russian Tea (Grandma Nelson's Recipe of course)*Having breakfast done and on the table when Jason comes home from work.
*Making a huge mess scrapbooking. I feel so creative.
*Making plans and shopping and creating for Christmas. <3 The holiday season. :)*Chocolate cupcakes that have just 131 calories in each of them. So moist and yummy and pumpkiny. Heaven for me.
*Jason cooking supper when I come home from work
*Music. Must have music.
*Silly pictures
*Effer Dares. They make me think outside the box.
*Jason tucking me into bed at night before he leaves for work.
*Comforts from childhood (my brown blankey and Corey)

Scrapbooking

I actually scrapbooked tonight. And to be honest, it was only one LO, but I made a huge mess and totally enjoyed it. Now I just have to get the black ink off of my hands before work tomorrow, LOL. And I ended up not even using the chipboard that I inked, LOL. So totally me.

Anyway, this is from the AMM Bohemia Line, papers and rub-ons, and HS photocorners.

Day 1...continued...Corn Palace

Here we are heading off to the Corn Palace in Mitchell, SD. Now some of you may be wondering what in the heck is a Corn Palace, basically it's a building that is decorated using different colors/variations of corn! Inside of the building it has a gymnasium, that was being used for a Polka Festival when we were there. There were also little tables where you could buy items. And also, proof that I did drive. ;)

Day 1 Continued..

Here are more pics of Falls Park. I thought that they were too beautiful not to share. :)

South Dakota, Day 1, in the car & Sioux Falls!

Since I have come to the reality that I don't have the time to create one monster post about South Dakota, I'm going to do bits and pieces of our trip. I don't want to bore you with all 3,000 pics I took or all 900 I printed and put into photo albums, lol.

Here we go! Day 1!

I was fascinated with all these HUGE windmills and of course leaving MN and heading into South Dakota, so I had to take a picture of the sign, lol.




























Here we are at Falls Park in Sioux Falls, SD. More pics of the falls coming. :) It was WINDY and COLD there. Jason said he would be fine without his jacket. ;) He was freezing. :)
