We headed home, leaving our daughter in Portland. The whole trip went extremely well until 3 miles from home. We hit a deer in the middle of the night, no injuries, but totaled the car! Instead of several nice crafting days, we ran back and forth to the insurance agent and the body shop. I still don't have a car, but it's getting closer!
Then, after five days at home, we headed to Glacier Park where our daughter met us. Our son came with us, so again, lots of family. We also attended a 40th anniversary for a brother and sister-in-law so there was even more visiting then. The only problem in that week was that we had hail that broke all 3 vents in our camper! Not good. The scenery is always great, however, and the weather cleared up so we had a great time. This is the four of us in front of Lake McDonald at Apgar Village, one of the most photographed spots. It makes a great spot for a photo like this.
Home again. The faucet in our bathroom fell apart, water everywhere. I think I'll be glad when July is over. But that's all fixed now, so I'm thinking that if (as my grandmother said) bad things come in threes, we're already done... Hope so! The two of us are heading to the mountains again this weekend, so we'll find out!!!
Back to crafting: I just bought the Designer Edition of Silhouette Studio while it was 50% off so I'm playing around with SVGs in it. Hope to have something to show off soon! Meanwhile, this is something I made a while ago but haven't posted yet...
The sentiment is from TLC Creations, the gorgeous digi is from Sassy Studios (love all of them!) and the paper is a printable that was a freebie a long time ago. I added some Stickles and some snowflake buttons (with the stuff on the back clipped off). I'm working on more Christmas cards. Hate to start already, but school starts here on August 20 (ick... way, way too early and hot), so I think I had better get moving.
Oh, one more thing! I see that I have passed 150 followers! I cannot imagine how that has happened, but I have to say that knowing that you are reading and looking makes this much, much more fun. Thank you so much! I'll be having a celebration after I get home again from this camping trip. Meanwhile, hope you are getting some good crafting time in and still finding time to enjoy the sunny weather. Remember that winter won't be far behind. (I realize that is good news for all of you living in our drought-stricken areas.)
Happy summer!
