I BOUGHT IT!

So I was looking in the paper on Sunday and I found a Hobby Lobby ad. As I was perusing the ad to see what deals they had this week and since I don't or rarely ever do I get Michaels ads I thought lets see what kind of scrapbooking deals they had. Well low and behold there it was what I have wanted for a few months because I decided that I did like it after all and I actually knew how to use the thing and I had just recived my paycheck, and one more thing it was cheaper then at michaels and wal-mart(shocker) but only this week. So monday I decided to go and cash my check and get some grocery's (milk etc...) and head to Hobby Lobby. I walked in and found what I wanted and then as I was walking up to purchase my one item. I had second thoughts, but still I went ahead and bought it!!
Yep I bought a CRICKET!!! for those of you not in on the cool things of scraping it is a really fancy paper cutter.
I went to wally world to see what alphabets they had and to see it they were cheaper. well they did not have that big of selection but they were cheaper so I bought one, ( it actually comes with one alphabet cartridge) one that just has cute picture things to cut out.
Today I used it and had some fun trying to figure out how different things on the cartridge work.

p.s. only 18 more days till California!!!

I think I have it

23 days

Yes only 23 days and we are off to (hopefully) sunny California!!! I am very excited to go on a road trip. We the Motts haven't gone a vacation like this since Washington D.C. when Emily was 18 months old. We have been to Yellowstone but it isn't that far and we will be having grandma and grandpa and Kellee with us. I am excited to play don't eat pete and find the"licence plate" game and we will have to have red vines and starbursts with us, those are a must haves on (gardner)family vacations.
I have not been to San Diego so that is one place I that I can't wait to see. I am hoping for some nice weather so we may enjoy the beach and some nice days at Sea world and Disneyland and the other places that we are planning on visiting. It would be cool if we could blog as we go, I will have to look into that.
