Weekend Adventure

So hopefully the title has got your attention and you keep reading....

We got to experience the lovely St. Paul over St. Patrick's day. Of course we were not there because we are Irish and it is the place to be. No, we are there for the college hockey tournament. It was a very exciting weekend because the Gopher's won the Final Five and with St. Patrick's day the people watching was the tops! A few memorable people was the guy wearing red Pippy Longstocking hair, the chubby lady in the underwear, the spray-painted green dog, but the best over all was the 70 year old man stick skinny wear tights! I was going to bring my camera but I didn't want to risk getting it lost or broken in the mess of people. Next year I will have to buy a cheap one to take along!

Normal??

Just a quick update to say Mike is back and things are back to the regular groove. Also now it is my turn to head out of town. I am going on a scrapbooking retreat weekend with my friend Terri. It is in central MN, called Camp Shamineau. It houses over 200 people. I hope to get a lot done.


Since I am all packed up I gave my hand to a digtal layout. This actually is my second all digtal layout but I am going to claim it as my first! You don't want to see my first! ;)

Have a good weekend!

Snow Travel

I feel sorry for Mike. He flew out in the mix of snow on Saturday for New Orleans. First they were suppose to leave at 1:30 and then the airport closed so they disembarked. Reboard around 3:00 to finally get off the ground a while later. Once in the air the plane's deicing mechanism quit working. Now, not being able to land anywhere there was moisture they diverted to Detroit, MI. Boarded another plane and didn't arrive in New Orleans until 10:15, a good six hours after he of arrived.

He was suppose to come back today and we are getting hit by another storm. Mike rebooked his flight for tomorrow night. Hopefully all is passed by then and we have nothing to worry about.

School is cancelled for the day but right now the house is quite as both Will and Tate went over to the neighbors to play outside. Luckily, the fridge is stocked and I have a couple of movies so we don't need to go out for anything.

With Mike being gone I had more time to work on a couple scrapbooking projects. The layout is Tate's page of our trip to Bunker Beach last summer, 2006. Boy, do I enjoy scrapbooking summer pages in the winter. I will have to remember that and save a few of this years summer pictures for next winter. The journal is something that I did for myself to keep with me so if I think of something that I want to remember I can make a quick note. It is hard to tell but it is 5x5 in size.

So anyone else watching American Idol? It is so nice this year to have a fellow viewer. Will is watching it too. He is not as faithful as me, I think that he knows if he watches it he doesn't have to go to be as early. So what are your vote for who is going home tonight?

Well, that about wraps today up.

Oh yeah, I have some snow for sale if anyone wants it. Actually if you come and pick it up it is FREE!
