My former French teacher met the president of France today!


I just read Renee's blog where she explained her serendipitous meeting with Nicolas Sarkozy today. I am very proud of her and her son for representing Americans in a positive light during their discussion with Monsieur le President.

Bravo, Madame!

In a good place



It has been an incredibly productive and relaxing week for me with three snow days under my belt. I have finished the 2010 Archiver's calendar where I made one layout for each month. I want to take 1-3 pictures of us and put them in the calendar. When each month is finished, I will put each layout into the 2010 scrapbook and I'll have instant layouts. Cool idea.

I used my Cricut for each title and I can't say how much I love that machine! I got three new cartridges for Christmas and I used the heck out of Designer's Calendar. Obviously, it went hand and hand with my project but it has so many capabilities. I love the Cricut!

Snow day!!!


This is the second snow day in a row for us. It's really due to the excessive wind chills forecast for today--between -15 and -25 below 0. We'll be staying inside, thank you very much. I hope everyone is snug and warm wherever you are.

Back to work tomorrow

Well, it's been a fun couple of weeks but as much as I hate to admit it, vacation must end and work must begin.

It's back to the books and I'm looking forward to the third quarter. Only ten more weeks until Spring Break! :)
