Winter is Here!

Here in southern NH, we got hit with a major ice storm Thursday night...we had power when I went to bed, but did not in the morning! For the first time in 6 years, work was eventually closed too...first it was a delayed open with instructions to call the emergency line in a couple of hours...then it was extended another hour then another couple...finally the last time I called in, I was informed the office was closed for the day. Good thing! With no power at home, my cell phone was also almost dead...

Anyway, for lunch we decided we would head out and see if McD's was open...it was not...so what next...we went to the Skating Rink...and it was open, was warm and had hot food...so we had lunch. Then headed home for another hour before heading back for our scheduled skating time. After skating we headed to the Mall. T had a great time doing this bungy jump thing they had set up..tried for pictures, but as I only had my cell phone, they were all blurry. but was a good place to waste a couple of hours. We then went to a friends for the night...they had their power back. and the best part was I got to take a hot shower this morning! When I get home again, with power, I'll upload a couple of pictures of the icy trees I took yesterday.

12/3 The countdown begins

I can't believe it's already been a few weeks since I posted...but I have been busy with Thanksgiving, and holiday shopping....tomorrow though, I'm going down to my scrap room to clean up and get working....I need to create some cards for a swap...and to send out for the holiday! I'm so behind.
This is the card I sent last Christmas. Simple but cute...All products used are Close to My Heart-Cranberry cardstock, B&T paper, and the stamp set is Snow Friends...which is still available this year..so check my website link if you are interesting in purchasing.
