The Hall of Fame Book Is Out!

I am so excited to share with you that the Creating Keepsake's Hall of Fame book is out! If you saw my post in March you would know that I entered the largest and hardest scrapbooking contests this past winter and out of all the entries I won an honorable mention. This means I was chosen as one of the top 75 scrapbookers in the world. Since winning an honorable mention, God has brought me so many new and exciting opportunities. I've gotten to do design work for Better Homes and Gardens' Scrapbooks, Etc. I've had several of my pages picked up for the monthly issues of Creating Keepsakes and I was asked to be a contributor for one of their articles (3 Products, 5 Scrapbookers) in their November issue. I've also become great friends with all the other honorable mentioners this year and they have been so inspiring and encouraging. I plan on entering again this coming year and Lord willing the outcome will be even greater! If you're ever in Micheal's, JoAnn's or Barnes and Noble, pick up the Hall of Fame book and please check out my page.

Night At The Rockies Game

Last Friday, Hannah and I hit the Denver downtown area and enjoyed a great night at the Rockies game. After school, we met for lunch and spent way to much money at the new Charlotte Russe. Love that store! We drove downtown trying to find the cheapest place to park. We managed to part for $3 compared to most that were $10-15! Because I took Clint to the Rockies game while he was here in July, I got two coupons for free tickets. So Hannah and I went and cashed those in for the best sits we could get. We then walked to the Old Spaghetti Factory. Neither of us had been there and it was such a neat place. Dark wood and Victorian furniture. Old fashioned bathrooms. I tried a sampler of all the different sauces and Hannah had the chicken marsala. After dessert we walked back to the field and enjoyed the beautiful September night as we watched the Rockies play the Giants. We had a great time talking, laughing and eating dippin' dots and cotton candy. We were also fortunate enough to enjoy the last fireworks show of the season. Before the fireworks started, we saw on the video screen, a man on his knee proposing to his girlfriend. When she nodded "yes", he jumped up, hugged her and started telling all his friends. How fun to be engaged and set beneath the stars enjoying the gorgeous fireworks together. Hannah and I both had an incredible time together.
