... heading to Wisconsin, for a whole week, to visit Terri!
Leaving my dh behind to take care of everything.
We've got big plans this trip ... actually venturing out of her basement .... we've got some canvasses to make .... for something special coming up at Ten Seconds Studio ... we're taking a ferry ride (on a big ferry) across Lake Michigan to Ludington to visit Dawn and David at their Inn .... we're gonna have some fun ... and its going to be cool (as in less than 112 degrees) ... I hear they're getting lots of rain too .... I'll see if I can bring any of that wet substance home with me!!

Catching up ...
... or trying to, at least!
Seems like the world is just spinning at a rate faster than we can keep up, just hang on ... its a crazy ride!
Haven't had much time to sit and be creative lately, but I still have that need for a little solitude in my studio. So whenever I can grab a few minutes, I color. I always have stamped images at hand and I grab some copics and I color. Its quick, its satisfying and a great stress reliever ... even if its just for a few minutes .... and then when I do have some creative juices flowing I've got images all ready for some quick card making.
We qualified for Farmers Toppers Club this year. Its a three day event once a year, held in different locations around the United States. Throughout the year you have to reach many requirements in every part of our business to achieve this opportunity. Its not easy, but with lots of hard work and determination, its achieveable!
This year we experienced the Lost Pines Resort in Bastrop, Texas ... just a ways outside of Austin. The resort was beautiful, our business meetings informative, and a alot of fun re-connecting with many of our business associates that we only get to see once a year at these events.
There is lots of acreage around the hotel where you can wander ... this was taken in the "butterfly garden" .... and I just kept wondering how the butterflies know how to come to this spot?? But they seem to .....
And the mighty Colorado River borders alot of the property ....
This lady looks to be a stone statue, but then she starts to move to music, so gracefully ....
And this lady ... yes, the plant is a lady .... she's on stilts wrapped in these vines ... and if you look very closely, you might see her gorgeous face peaking out .... she wandered the hall with such grace in her movements ......
Its been a warm 112-115 in Phoenix this past week, with humidity higher than or normal. But, hey, it happens every year ... we've got lots of air conditioned opportunities .....
