My work schedule has about beaten me down in the last two weeks and I am ready for a reprive. Not that anything is too different at work, but I think I just expected my body to bounce right back after surgery and it isn't. I seem to tire more easily than is normal and when I lie down at night I pass out. To be honest, I can barely stay awake through dinner. Ha! Makes for stimulating evenings at my house, gotta tell you. But as my Mom always says, this too shall pass.
Last weekend I was able to spend a little time in my craft room inking up some new stamps. Yeah! I also made a trip out to the scrapbook store (closest one is 45 min. away) and picked up the Dewey Decimal Set by Lawn Fawn and the paper pack of the same name. So cute! Here a a couple of the cards that I made:
The three above a made with the Inky Antics set that I showed you last week, papers are all Papertrey Ink. I love their paper!
This was just a little set that contained just the turkey image and the sentiment that says 'Happy Turkey Day!' I know that it is difficult to see there in the corner.
On Sunday we skipped church and took Michelle, Shawn and Isabella to the Fair. Bella loves going and her favorite part is the animals. One year she was able to see a cow giving birth and she was so fascinated! Every year we have to go and one of the first stops is the Birthing Tent. This year we missed the birth as one occurred just before we arrived and one shortly after we left. We were able to see the proud new mommy and her baby.
Bella made a Tussy Mussy in one of the buildings and we saw lots of great home grown produce, flowers as well as animals.
We all rode the ferris wheel, it was nice because we were able to feel a nice breeze up there!
We heard a lot of comments throughout the day about Michelle being a Steelers fan and Shawn a Ravens fan. Bella was planning on changing into her Steelers jersey after the Ravens game.
This ride was new this year. It's a big inflatable tube that is in water and the kids move it by walking or running inside. Bella liked it if you couldn't tell.

This was a prize that Shawn and Bella won at one of the game booths. You had to toss ping pong balls into a small fish bowl and for each one in you got a fish or a ticket. If you won 6 tickets you could trade up for a Gecko. So this little fellow is joing Bella's menagerie! After they got home Shawn went to the pet store to buy food (a neighbor gave them an aquarium) and there he learned tht they do better with others, so now she has 2 Geckos!
Let's just say that Daddy is a pushover!
Shawn and Bella rocking their Ray Rice jerseys!
Have a great weekend y'all!
