I have been wanting to go downtown to Heritage Square for their Phoenix Flea... it was today , so we all went down and it was so nice out!! We found some treasures....boys picked out their choice of magnets or pins, I found a few choice magnets and the boys picked out some fabric reusable sandwich and snack bags...
We then walked around downtown to cityscape.... we had lunch at The Arrogant Butcher....I have been before and it was delish! As Owen says "I love downtown!
I'm really going to town...I have a Spring one yet to make, but it is bigger and I will need a larger piece of paper and I haven't even started the winter/Christmas ones...
I can not believe March is here!! Went "live" for work this past Monday and it was a great week. I will be part of a PR commercial for our department and will be filmed this next week....the director came to our cubicles and assessed our areas... we have actual lines! I have finally become the actress I have always dreamed of.....ha-ha, wink wink
I have taken down my desk decor and family pics... I was hoping the boys would be in the background....
I have been busy putting more framed coffee cards together....it is so much fun and what a cheap thing to make...frames were $2, paper cheap and the cards were free....so if u are ever in a Starbucks...ask if they have people's empty gift cards... would love to have them...... I figure I will swap the pics out during the year depending on the season
Today we are going downtown Phoenix Flea...never have been down there for crafts, food and local art
February is winding down and what a great week. We are going "live" Monday March 2nd and I am excited and ready to get started. I will still be working Monday thru Friday until we are fully staffed!! So many things to come and to be a part of the beginning is exciting!!
I am trying to finish Gone Girl and then I have some other books ready to read.....I'm really excited for the Fringe Hours....This is a constant struggle for me personally.... This weekend I am going to put some more SB pics together ...such a fun and easy craft...will post pics after...
Some valentine pics......j went to a birthday party at the skatepark and there was a professional skater there showng the kids some things.... then the kids got his autograph..... my moms are so talented!! They made me an afghan and a fused glass candle holder--had to take a pic!!! Robby got me some flowers, monster high girl and chocolate covered strawberries!!!!
I can not believe it is already February!!! It seems like it was just the new year!
I am loving my new job!! I work with some really nice people, I have a awesome, positive boss and I am very excited for this new role and department!!! I really do think when one door shuts, another door opens!!
We have made some really big goals financially... being laid off unexpectantly was not a great feeling and we were not prepared and we do not want to feel that way again... so we have a plan in place and have made some very lofty goals...but realistic!!
I have made some personal goals and adding more reading is one of them...I have been focusing on the books I have at home...I have a lot of scrapbooking to do also and catch up on and am considering joining a monthly "Project Life" but in a few months....in the mean time, I am making other crafty things.... Here are some recent pics!!
Below is an upcycled Valentine picture I made with used Starbucks cards....
Took the kids to the new SpongeBob movie..... I had to invest in a new lunch bag for work...salads and fruit for me and avoid the in-house cafeteria.....; )
I love this wine label...I may have to put some lights in it and decorate the top!!
I am in the middle of organizing, making goal lists, planning and plotting. I have 1 more week until I start my new job, so I am trying to get some things done and catch up on some things.....
I have many goals for the new year and I just love a new year!!
My new calendar.....I am already putting some special days and plans in....
