Busy Weekend!

Well, it seems that I never get to just do what I want on a long holiday weekend. What I really want to do is just hid in my scraproom and stamp, sew and scrap. Just never seems to work out. I'm so swamped these days with homework that I'm lucky to even sleep. Thank goodness Jim now works from home because he helps me alot. I would have fallen off the edge by now if it weren't for my hubby.

This weekend was another busy 3 day weekend. We had family over for James's birthday. It was so cool to have my family here as well as my in-laws. James was on cloud 9. He is a big family kid. He loves to be around family, that's all he every wants for his birthday.

Val, Daniel and Nathaniel were here for the weekend, yeah!! I got to be with my grandbaby. I just love him so much. I totally miss him during the week. I get depressed when he leaves. Sunday nights are usually sad for me.

My sister, Natalie and her hubby, SteveO also came for the weekend. We have alot of fun with them. I'm so excited because they will be living up here come the end of June. They bought a brand new KB home in Victorville. Their house is in the process of being built. Actually, they just dug the trenches for the foundation.

Natalie and I did a big NO, NO this weekend. We gave Nathaniel a bath, but we didn't use anything we were suppose to. We didn't use his tub. We didn't use his special soap, and we didn't wash the onesie before putting it on him. Soooooo, he broke out in a rash. Val and Daniel were not too happy with us. LOL I felt pretty bad though because Nate had a bad rash. When we got scolded we washed him up in his 'special' soap and changed his clothes. He got better in no time. Bad Grandma!!

My sister, Renee and her family came up really late, but that's my sister. LOL But, I'm glad she showed up nonetheless. I hadn't seen my niece and nephew for a while so it was nice to see them. My Grannie also came up with them. I think the last time I seen her was at Christmas. I wish she would stop being stubborn and come live with me. I would love to have her here with me so she wouldn't have to worry about things. She spent her time holding Nate, her Great-great grandson. I'm so lucky that she is alive to share his little life with him. I know she is too. She lights up everytime she sees him.

Well, today, my day off from work due to a holiday, I figured I would do some stamping. About 2 weeks ago my wonderful order of Stamping Bellas came in. I've been dying to play with them, but homework usually comes first. Anyhow, I was hoping to play with them today, but it doesn't look that way. You see, I opened my syllabus for school and I have a ton of homework and a ton of reading. Ugh!!! I thought about not doing it, but it's the first night for this class and I would hate to make a bad impression on the first night. LOL So, looks like I have to be the good student and work. Hopefully, I'll be able to get some stuff done at the crop on Friday. Hey...if anyone is local and feels like cropping, drop me an email. West Coast Croppers will be having their monthly crop this month.

Toodles for now.....off to do homework.
