... is all over, but was so much fun! I was there from 9 am Friday to 3 pm on Sunday, and we enjoyed ourselves so much! The food was fabulous, and almost (almost!!) too pretty to eat. It was a B&B style place, and the husband and wife team that run it were so nice. He carried all our bags upstairs to the crop room, which was a definite bonus!!
Here' my lil' corner of heaven. The tables, Ott Light, cup holder, trash can and a comfy chair were already waiting for us. There was even a Cricut and a huge library of carts to use, plus a computer and nice printer too.
The view from the stairs coming down to the dining room was so pretty!
Chicken pot pie, mmmmmmmmmm... At each meal the whole table setting was different, the table cloth, place mats, everything.
Dutch babies for breakfast!
Lori and Dolora, and Lori was VERY happy we were having Mexican food :)
Mal was fooling around with my camera lol!
Cheryl and Mal having a 'gun' fight....
Renee, Lori, Me, Cheryl, Gayle, Dolora and Jennifer
Mal hard at work....
Dolora and Jen slaving away!
And one of the highlights of the weekend... Lori very generously donated 2 baskets of scrap goodies to be raffled off and the money would go to my 3day account. We emailed friends and posted it on Facebook, and in just 3 days of selling tickets we raised $394!!!!! A few of the ladies cut up a bunch of scrap paper and stamped the initials of all the ladies that bought tickets....
Renee and Gayle hard at work, folding tickets!
All 394 'tickets'! We drew 2 names, and the winners were Renee and Annemarie!!!!!!!!!!!
Here are the pages I completed...
This was our 'theme' for the whole weekend, and has absolutely nothing to do with the picture, haha! It got silly and more funny as the weekend went, it was hilarious!
Calie, Matty, Kim and I at the 3day Expo last year. It was a 10 mile 'practice' about 3 months prior to the 60 mile event. We stayed in Bellevue the night before, and walked from 7 am to 11:30 or so.
The teacher tag in this one is a swap item.
The school tage is a swap item!
This is my favorite layout of the whole weekend! Thanks Melanie for the monkey, it was perfect ;)
It wasn't until I was taking a pic of this one that I noticed the 'c' was missing, oops!
The cake tag is a swap item.
The pink tag is a swap item...

Pics today...
We have 3 cherry trees in our front yard, and Adrian has been eyeing them everyday. Patiently waiting for them to turn red... And today they did!
And we made some yummy cookies this morning...
Low-Fat Chocolate Cookies from Taste of Home Magazine
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/3 cup canola oil
3 egg whites
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2-2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup baking cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips (I only had reg chips, and added them to the mix instead)
Directions: In a large bowl, combine the applesauce, oil and egg whites. Beat in sugars and vanilla. Combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; gradually add to applesauce mixture and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or until slightly firm. Drop dough by rounded teaspoonfuls 2 in. apart onto baking sheets coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle with chocolate chips. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until set. Remove to wire racks. Yield: about 3-1/2 dozen.

All the K & Co 12x12 stacks...

Boxes and cards
I follow the Busy with Cricky blog and found THIS posted there, and they were so cute I had to make some!
All the directions are posted on her blog. I used the DCWV Nana's Nursery boy and girl stacks for them.

Father's Day pics
We went to Babe's in Ferndale for breakfast with my dad, and it was soooo yummy!! Aaron and Grnadpa Ted....
My husband, and yes he ordered a bacon cheeseburger and fries at 8 am!
Adrian wanted strawberry pancakes and bacon.
...and Aaron wanted waffles and bacon.
Kasoma wanted to go to Ace hardware store in Ferndale but they didn't open until 10 am, so we killed some time at Hovander Park.
The last 3 or 4 times we have been there, the pigs weren't around and Adrian was sooooooo disappointed. But they were there today!
...a cute lil' mouse in the rabbit enclosure.
And it only took 2 tries to get a decent family pic with the slef timer on my camera!
Don't ask me why, but Adrian prefers to wear her pants on backwards, silly girl!
