Thanks for stopping by my blog! The hats I wear include wife (to a retired Army field artilleryman), mom to three super busy teens, and high school math teacher. In my “free time” I love cooking, reading, creating (mostly papercrafts), photography, travelling, and exploring the PNW with my family…you know, all the usual things!
I hope you’ll find some inspiration, entertainment, and something that makes you smile here. I look forward to hearing from you!

Cold Play
As I may have mentioned, we have been the tiniest bit impatient for our snowy Wisconsin winter to begin. We’ve had a couple of small snows, just an inch or so, nowhere near enough to go sledding. Needless to say, … Continue reading

Ack! I almost forgot National Digital Scrapbooking Day!
Yes, that really exists. I think this might be the first one. Nevertheless, as you probably know, I don’t do paper scrapbooking at all anymore. I’m all digital…it frees up lots of time (well, okay, some time) for card-making and … Continue reading
