So Much FUN stuff

I never really know what to say on my blog. Who really reads it anyway? A few close friends? Well thy already know pretty much everything in my life already. So Heres heres a recap.

We got back from CHA a couple weeks ago. I had such a blast. I went with my mom, my sis Jen, Kim and Amy. We all get aalong pretty well so it was so much fun. Disnayland was different without having kids there. I felt so guilty at first but then realized how nice it was to just enjoy!!! Heres a couple snapshots of me and mom on the roller coaster Thunder Mountain. I must say thats one of my favorite rides. and then one of me and Jen just cause.



I started getting good at taking our pictures by the end there. People probably thought I was weird but oh well.

All the different products we saw were amazing. But I have to say that Fancy pants is still my favorite. They amaze me. And Mr. and Mrs. Fancy pants are a hoot to talk to.

I dont think we got to see a third of everything that was there but what we saw I loved. We are pretty broke now. or will be when the new stuff starts rolling in. We already received Sassafrass, and Cosmo Cricket.SOOO cute.

AUTISM EVENT

We decided to reschedule our annual Autism awareness event until April 7th and then again in September. April is National Autism month so we are going to spend Saturday the 7th fundrasing for Autism. We will start off the day with a progressive album class made with 4x4 puzzle pieces, with 5 different teachers doing a page. The cost is $15 and the entire profit will go towards autism research. Two classes will be held. One at 10 and one at 1. Same class. Then that evening we will be holding a gala event. Yep, a gala event. It will be a $10 cover charge to do some fun make n takes, eat delicious food from Olive and Ivy, thanks to Chris and Amy, and be entered into some awesome raffles. The event will go from 5-9pm. With all that going on 15% of the stores sales that day will go towards awareness. Last year was such a success we know this year will be even bigger.

Then we will hold our 3 day fundraiser in September. We are working on getting some great guest teachers so keep your ears open for more news. The walk will then be in October or is it November. I forget th exact date but if you want to join our team and walk or just donate go here. More info will follow as the time gets closer.

CLASSES

This week I have one class going on. All about me album. I rarely find myself scrapbooking or documenting anything about my life or who I am. I think alot of us do that. So I am doing a monthly class to create that album all about me. I want my kids to be able to see who I am, what I like, what my fears are, and just see me. Not just as their mom but as an individual. So get ready to show YOU! Join me on Thursday Feb 22nd 6:30-8:30pm. Its only a $15 class fee. You will be able to choose from 4 different sizes. 8x8, 9x9, 8x12, or 8 1/2 x 11. If you want to buy your album that night it will be 20% off for students only. This class is not a "copy" class. You will make it your own, I will just be a guide. Hope to see you there.


Ok. Last thing. This post is a mile long. These past 2 weekends Devine Memories has been lucky to have the all talented Kim Kwan guest teach at our store. She is amazing. Such a fun personality who knows how to get you inspired. LOVE her. She has agreed to come back probably in April and hopefully on a more regular basis to teach more. So look out. You wont want to miss a single class.

Ok. Just going to leave you with a few cute photos. The one of jenna is a self portrait. She really has a talent with the camera. Have a great week.
