Birthday Bliss

The sun is shining here this morning after yesterday's rain. A little more chilly, but so beautiful! I get so much energy and happiness from our sun!

I was able to take photos of my latest page for you. I created this page just for fun...not for assignment of any kind! I love to squeeze a little time here and there to do my own thing!


If you follow my blog, you probably remember my darling husband's birthday was this month and I made him a card, homemade macaroni and cheese and fresh baked chocolate chip cookies? He's pretty easy to please and was quite happy so I wanted to scrap these photos to remember his day.


I love this picture! This is how I see Dan, a content happy go lucky sort of guy!


I'm typically a less is more kind of paper crafter, but on this page I piled on quite a few goodies! I enjoy stepping outside my comfort zone, mixing things up and trying something different once in a while.

That's my artsy share for the day. I have to keep this short because I have to get ready for my friend to arrive for our cooking lesson! If you were here yesterday I mentioned that the two of us were getting a little tired of the same old dinner menu and decided to try some new recipes. Tonight's dinner will be Ranch Style Chicken from The Pioneer Woman Cooks. For desert, pumkin cupcakes with maple frosting! Oh boy! I'll share some pictures and the recipes very soon. Hopefully, it'll be a successful adventure or at the very least a fun story to tell you about! ;) Kathy
