Twice in a month...is this a first?

Well, gotta say, not much happening here really. We've had a bit of a gardening bug around here and planted 38 mock orange saplings along the front fence in preparation for when we get our new dog. After digging holes, mixing in garden soil, planting and then mulching I was a little sore for a few days. Hehehe!! We also planted another Sasanqua (sp?), two different varieties of Gardenia and a golden cane that's been sitting in a pot for close to 10 years. LOL!!

Only exciting news is that we got to meet the litter of puppies that we are going to choose from last Saturday. They are German Shepherds and there are 3 boys and 1 girl in it. We were set on getting a boy but after viewing and evaluating the pups we're now tossing up between one of the boys and the girl. She's stunning and is showing great qualities already. They are only 4 weeks old at the moment so we have some time to decide. I'll also get to meet/play with them each week to get them familiar with me. Decisions...decisions...

Trying hard to get back into my scrapbooking. Haven't had much motivation lately and everything that I've done has been forced (as in I forced myself to scrap). I did however scrap today and enjoyed myself so I'm going to have another crack at it tonight. Have printed out some pics ready, just need to get moving. :)

Here is the LO I did today. It was done for a sketch challenge over at 3AS. Great sketch from Pencillines I think.

I just placed an order from Stampin' Up for some stamps, inks and cardstock so I can start making my Christmas Cards. Yes, I know I'm early but last year I left them so late that I felt too rushed and stressed over it all. Anyway, I'm itching to start but have to wait for that lovely box to turn up with the postie first.

I've also joined a card swap for next month on EB which is Christmas themed. Can't wait to see all the lovely cards that I get in return. I already have mine planned out, just waiting on my SU order. ROFL!!

Alright, best keep going and get these kids bathed and put to bed.
