Getting Ready for 2011

Does 2011 seem odd to anyone else but me? Seems like yesterday (an old phrase but so true) that we were all worrying about the calendars changing from 1999 to 2000 and "shwish" here we are on the verge of 2011. Well I want to wish everyone a Happy Healthy and Prosperous 2011.  Last year was full of ups and downs.  A good friend choose not to be friends anymore. And I was fired from my volunteer job just when I was enjoying it the most.  But God has replaced the losses with so many many good things.  Our youngest daughter, Sarah, married the love of her life.I got reacquainted  with a cousin that I haven't seen for over 40 years! And his family live within driving distance. Our stamping group is meeting at our church, Powdersville Community Church at Exit 40, and having a good time. The church has been very gracious to us, letting us meet for free, and now I am ready for an announcement!  
                    Starting Saturday, January 15th at 10:00 am
                    we will meet once a month to work on Tim Holtz 
                    Tags with Micki Switzer and myself leading the
                    group.
                    You are welcome to come and work on other 
                    samples if you do not want to do the tags.
                    All I can say is put it on your calendar and come
                    join the fun!


I have started finally to work on some new samples for next Thursday, January 6th.  Here is the first one:
