Busy with work

The other night Jay and I were working in the office and the kids were really quite...this is what we found.

It is always nice when they fall asleep by themselves. Next we need to work on making it to their beds, then falling asleep.



I have been very busy lately with my at home business. I have several super Saturday's for various wards that I am cutting vinyl lettering and wood. Jay has been a great help in the past and I am sure that he will be again this year. We went out and bought all the wood last night and I have finished three different wards vinyl. I get a phone call about every other day for a new ward's super Saturday. Some are bigger projects then others, but I am happy to take them all. It is a lot of work this time of year, but I enjoy it and the extra money is always nice.

Today I did a couple of my own projects to show for more Super Saturday ideas. I thought that I needed some cheaper ideas for wards to pick from. They turned out pretty cute. I really liked the JOY block.

My birthday was about 10 days ago and Jay bought me an awesome camera. We went out to eat and as soon as we got seated he said he'd be right back. I thought he was going to the bathroom, but he went back out to the car to get my present. He came back in the restaurant and set it on the table all wrapped up. I just looked at it and said, "You bought me a camera!?" He said I don't know, you'll have to open it up. Then I began to cry...I like to blame that part on being pregnant. I told him to put the present on his seat and I would open it in the car. So he did and then I was able to calm myself down. He finally convinced me to open it and I began to get worried that maybe it wasn't a camera and I had made a fool of my self. But as I opened up the present I knew that it was a camera and a very nice one too. I was very happy, but felt spoiled that he would spend so much on me. I have told him that I cry a lot lately, but he had never witnessed it like that. We had a good laugh afterward about it.
It has been a great camera. We have been able to take pictures of all the vinyl lettering in our house that we had problems taking pictures of before. We never could get rid of the glare from the lighting with our other camera. I love the new features of my new camera and hope to be able to take a class to learn how to work all of them!

I love the new Super Saturday ideas, too bad it is too late for us.
And way to go Jay, he is a good gifter.
