a quote from tim...

i love this comment from tim holtz on his blog from monday. u rock tim!!

remember to take time during your crazy busy life to play a little. happy monday...t!m

the quick rundown...

soooo mostly been working...my first job and the second one...:)

march was a pretty busy month...been working on my goal of getting projects done. :) sort of being successful, been working on stuff but not quite completing as much as i would like to, but doing it. went to the leap year crop at the pineapple with mayra, then a couple weeks later went on the bus tour with the pineapple. that was super fun also. val, darleen, and mayra went...woo hoo! we went to pink pineapple, it's about time, and scrappin' good times...all the stores were so fun and all the projects and gifts were awesome! i've been to all the stores before, but i wanted my friends to check out all the stores too...yay! saw lots of friends on the bus tour and erin was such an awesome hostess!!! but i think the best part of the day was the crop at the end. the gals at the pineapple were soooo fun and we were singing and dancing and just being goofy and having the best time!! i hope we get to do it again soon!!! then at the end of the month was ginger's fun in the sun crop...sooo cool to see diva trish and diva star and diva ginger, mom, tashia, leslee, marylu, and all the other ladies i haven't seen in a long time...and i even got stuff done. :) hee

april was pretty busy also...at the beginning of the month, mayra and i cropped at dar's house all day...we always get pages done when we hang out...that was a blast, we plan on getting together again for more cropping. :) i took michelle hill's 2nd "seasons of memories" class...that was super fun, she always has great ideas and i always learn at least one new technique at one of her classes. speaking of michelle, i've also been going to her workshops at the pineapple to work on her projects and/or classes we've taken from her. it's cool since we can ask lots of questions and see the original projects to work on ours. :) yay...

during april, i saw bon jovi and daughtry with jackie at the staples center...SUPER FUN!! it was a really great concert and to see his "fans thru the ages" was quite interesting to say the least...the "older" fans that are trying to bring back the old days, little kids that are new fans and the ones in between...both bands put on a really good show. the duet with chris daughtry and jon bonjovi sounded awesome!!! i had an absolute blast!!!!

the next day, val and i went to phoenix for the nascar race...woo hoo!!! i had soo much fun with her!!! the weather was sooo nice, it was HOT but dry...the whole weekend was super nice. the race was good, we met some of the drivers before the race and after the race, we got to meet drew lachey...nick was making a bee-line out of the track. but ok this is one of the best parts of the trip....i got to go to a HOBBY LOBBY!!! hee :) it's a cool store...and then we went to islands before the race...yum-o...it was a night race so we had some time before getting to the track...it's always a fun adventure with val...OH and we also went into scottsdale...that is one cute town, we went to old town scottsdale and walked around the shops and restaurants...that was fun.

with my new team at work, we went to a san diego padres game. we got really good seats...we were up in the tower suites...right above 1st base and straight across the scoreboard. very nice and we even got ice cream bars for dessert! :)

for NSD i actually went to town to see my family and celebrate mother's day early since it's pretty crazy that weekend...the night before, i went to the pineapple to celebrate NSD, hung out with some peeps, got a mother's day project almost done and had a really good time. the crop was sold out too...

okay, so that should catch me up so far...:) take care and i hope to update again soon...and will upload some pics. :) cuz i take so many...hahaha
