So when doing my daily check in at Nancy's Creative Mess, I read about this great blog candy at 5 Minute Moms to win a 37" Flat Panel LCD HD TV from Best Buy. I don't know if Mesh checks this anymore...so maybe if I win, I can use it as a present!! heehee. Good luck.

Yesterday we drove to Lethbridge (about an hour and half drive from here) to go and have dinner at Ric's Grill. It is a chain restaurant (although I didn't know that) and the one in Lethbridge is located high up in an old water tower. It was a yummy meal with great company and an enjoyable time overall.
It was so funny. We had some time to waste before our reservations so decided to walk around the mall. It is a crazy, small world. I ran into some of my friend's aunts (who I have meet several times) as she was walking around the mall. It was really funny and great to see her! What a small world.
So we just moved and one of the harder rooms to work on was my stamping space. These are some of the before pictures and when I clean it up a little this afternoon, I'll take after pictures. I'm happy with it so far!
Well it has been a long time since posting last. And, a lot has happened! We are all moved now to our new city and getting settled in our new home. It is coming along quite well and feeling more and more like home. We look forward to making some friends and meeting people. Hopefully church tomorrow will help. I will post some photos of your house soon (I have to take some).
One room I am excited about it my stamping space! It is much larger than my old room and I like the workspace that I have. I'm looking forward to spending some time down there, hopefully tomorrow and using the new stamps I have (that haven't been touched in weeks and they just got trimmed yesterday!). Priorities...I know.
Nancy at Nancy's Creative Mess had this neat little blog thing posted. You basically take the topic and your answer has to start with the same letter as your name. For the boy and girl names - they can't be your own! That'd be cheating!!!
Your Name: Laura Famous Artist/Band/Musician: Lionel Richie 4 letter word: Luck Vehicle: Lexus TV SHOW: Late Show with David Letterman City/Town: Lethbridge Boy Name: Levi Girl Name: Leanne Occupation: Lawyer Something you wear: Lingerie Celebrity: Lucille Ball Food: Lucky Charms Something found in a kitchen: Lights Reason for Being Late: Lost keys Cartoon Character: Linus Van Pelt Something You Shout: Look out!
I'll admit, my husband helped! I can't do things under pressure (and that says alot as there a was no pressure to do this!) but he came up with all my good ones!
