Topsy Turvy
No matter how good my intentions are to post more often, here I am
once again finally finding time to add a couple of things. My daughter
and her husband had to make an emergency flight to Arizona last week;
her mother in law passed away after a brave three year battle with cancer.
So I've been keeping the daycare running mostly by myself which of course
meant no time to create or post. I'd like to thank my son for filling in
both with caring for his sister's four kids; running them to their respective
schools, picking them up and taking them to their football practices and
games, and helping them with their homework and with helping me with the
daycare for a few hours each day. I surely couldn't have done my job if
he weren't there to do all of the other things.
Here are a couple of layouts that I did before all of this occured; but
didn't find time to photograph and post before. Hopefully I can get back
to creating very soon. This first layout is of my grandson, Levi, doing a
snappy dance routine.
This second layout is of my daughter Heather. She and I have been doing daycare together for twelve years. Even spending 8-10 hours together Monday through Friday,
we usually spend much of Saturday together too (shopping) and attend church together on Sundays.

Memory Tag
I got this idea from Madeline's blog and thought it might be fun to try it here too.
The idea is to leave a comment about something that you remember of/with me. Something we've done together, or how we "met" (in person or online). If you have a
blog of your own, add this memory game to yours too and see how many memories you
get.

Unexpected photo
I was looking through my photos from Door County again and thought I should post this one. As we drove from bay to bay I tried to snap a picture of a sign as we came into each new bay so I would remember which one the photos were of when I got home. Some turned out blurry, others were totally missed, but I was really surprised when
I saw this photo with my reflection in the rear view mirror! Kind of a neat momento
of our trip! Hope you get a kick out of it too!
Help a friend celebrate.........
I'd like to help a friend celebrate the first anniversary of her blog. She is giving away a wonderful package of some of her best Halloween collage sheets. Please check out her blog and if you're so inclined, leave a nice comment (and tell her Sue sent you LOL). I know she'll appreciate it!

Door County
Larry and I took a couple of days off and went to Door County. We enjoyed beautiful
weather for the entire three days and the scenery was spectacular! We stayed at a charming little motel called Julie's Park Motel in Fish Creek. Here are pictures of Larry and I in the giant Adirondack chair on their lawn.
We visited every little port city and bay; Sister Bay,Ephraim, and Egg Harbor, and
Bailey's Harbor and were amazed at all of the elaborate yachts that were in the slips at each one.
One of the highlights of our trip (besides all of the wonderful food!) was a visit to Cana Island Lighthouse. We were able to go to the very top of the lighthouse and got some great photos of the bay from that vantage point.
A photo through one of the portholes in the lighthouse.
And the stairs as we decended!!
