:windy1: That was me and everyone else at Earth Day yesterday. It was sooo cold and windy. We had wind gusts of 40+ mph. Everything was blowing away, even stuff that was underneath rocks and bricks. But it was fun and I got to spend some time chatting with Scott. The two scholarship interns...

Oh my goodness, I blink and this thread is just filled with gorgeousness! Stunning pages and I will be leaving love on all of them today!!

I know I am biased since I am on FS's CT but I *love* that kit and had a blast making a LO with it. That purple mushroom and dragon are so dang pretty! I don't know how you and @MariJ avoid flower-heavy kits. I can't scrap using buttons, but they are easy to ignore. Flowers are much harder. How...

Watching the pileated woodpecker was the highlight of my day, by far! He stripped off an entire section of bark in no time, flinging the bits of wood all over. I have no clue if this is the same one I have seen before, but usually I see them a few times each season. Rarely do I get to take any...

Check it out!! Gary, Caitlyn, and I spent so much time watching this guy from the LR window. I grabbed the old DSLR first but it's been so long since I used it, I forgot how. LOL Thankfully, I was able to get a bunch of pics from my phone.

Am I the tired one or the angry one? hahah!

Thank you! I am now following your board.

I remember your "Guess that I Burned Photo" from waaaaay back when. :floorlaugh: What was it, nachos??

The colors this month are just amazing! I did two traditional style pages using photos from my DD's wedding And one fantasy:

April Color Play On sale at Oscraps ♥

So glad the snow is gone and spring is back. I have a wren outside my window that calls nonstop every morning. Good thing I love animals because there are times I really wish it would take a break. YKWIM? I am so happy for you!! Are you feeling any better? The pollen levels here are reading...

Good morning, @vickyday I am so glad you opened the thread! I lost track of days when I woke up this and thought I needed to be up for work. Not today but I have my busiest week coming up starting tomorrow. I woke up at 5 but fell back asleep until 6. So are ya wondering how the field trip...

I adore this!! I wish I lived next door, I would love to swap cuttings with you. I am awful with houseplants. Outdoor gardening, that I can do and I love. Houseplants OTOH, I kill everything other than my few succulents and cacti. I must confess, I have killed cacti before... but the ones I...

I am so glad that you have been able to relax and enjoy family time post-surgery. I hope that you are healing easily, too! I broke my foot in March and have been out of my mind not being able to work. I work outdoors and I have a tough time being stuck inside. My first day back at work was...

You are inspiring me to make some more meals in mine again. It's been a while, and I haven't used it for more than hard-boiled eggs and rice in months. Last winter, I made broccoli cheese soup and French onion soup, both big hits. If you have any interesting recipes, can you please link me up?

@tanteva :sick: :bawling: :hiding1: Absolutely awful. I hope it is melted by now. @BoatLady Yes, the ticks seem to be worse every year. I swear by Permethrin for clothes, boots, and my backpack. I use DEET in my yard and non-Weis areas and Picaridin when I am at work. Since it is a nature...

@AK_Tracy Wake up!! :shakingsense: Time to get outta bed and check out the Color Plays!!! They are here!!!! (I am such a terrible enabler :devil2: ) But seriously, have you *seen* them yet?? The Gallery is going to be swoon-worthy all weekend. I have two wedding pages using them in the...

My heart jumped with joy when I saw it in the HAPS, thank you, esp for making it big ♥♥♥

@MariJ That sounds brutal about the end of your trip to AU. I can't imagine being in pain and on a flight that long. Perserverance (stubbornness in my case, yours too?) can only get you so far ;) @vickyday Did your scrap ideas stick around until you were ready to sit down and scrap? My ideas on...

Fantastic!!! Your journaling is awesome, I love the what/how/when. Placing the word art over the person's face is brilliant, as if you are blocking out your fears. Such a great AJ page!
