So Grateful Printable

So Very Grateful!

So Grateful Printable Yesterday started as a great day.  I got up early, enjoyed my bible study, did a little work, went to a spin class, came home and quickly showered to go to a meeting at the church, went to the church for a relatively short meeting with some sweet ladies and that was the end of the great day!

My husband was working from his home office on Wednesday.  He had been on conference calls all morning.  When I walked in the door at 1:00 I found him passed out on the floor of the kitchen.  He had been slicing tomatoes for a sandwich.  He turned to put the knife in the sink, slipped and fell with the butcher knife in his hand, hit his head, and cut himself badly and had gone into shock!  Of course, I was in shock too by this time!  It was a horrific experience to find him like that.

He was taken by ambulance to the emergency room and I was SOOOO thrilled when I was finally able to see him and he was coherent AND he had a great report from the doctor – no significant injuries.  They kept him overnight for observation, but he is fine now and I am SOOOO very happy to have him home!

Love that good man I married many years ago!

I made this little sign this afternoon when we got home from the hospital.

Here’s a PDF copy if you are feeling grateful for the wonderful people in your life!      So Grateful printable

Stampin’ Up! Digital Scrapbooking Update

family reunion beach vacation

Stampin’ Up!’s digital scrapbooking solution, My Digital Studio 2, is HERE with 75 updates of the original software!   And the 30-day trial is still available.  My Digital Studio 2 can help you preserve memories and/or create unique home decor and personalized greeting cards.

But first, the picture above is from my family reunion vacation at St. Augustine Beach in Florida.  What a wonderful week we had with family hanging out at the beach and the pool and playing games.  I love these low-key vacations that provide lots of time for catching up with aunts and uncles and cousins and getting to know the kids and the new babies in the family.  It’s been five years since the last DeLoach reunion and there were over 60 people that came and added to the fun!  I’m so glad so many made it a priority to reunite this year.  What a blessing family is!

Unfortunately, I did not have the internet connection that I expected to have while I was there so keeping connected with you was more of a challenge.  I hope you didn’t miss me too much.  🙂

And to add to my internet frustration, MDS 2 launched while I was gone!  I was finally able to download the update to my computer late on Saturday and it is fabulous!  I’ll get home later today and I’m looking forward to playing with it more, but I love the updates.  With the new program you can round paper and photo corners, crop and recolor digital stamp brushes and embellishments, easily fill punches with photos, recolor designer series paper, add a splatter image, etc. etc. etc.!!!

Stampin' Up! Digital Design and Scrapbooking Software

A couple of years ago I used My Digital Studio for the very first time and created a 20-page wedding sign-in photobook in one morning!  Yes, that’s right, one morning.  In fact, I had agreed to take someone to the hospital that day for an out-patient procedure and I took a laptop to a McDonald’s around the corner from the hospital and created the book while I waited for her to be released so I could take her home. True story – It’s really that easy!

Check This Out rafting trip album page

Happy Sunday And Give Back!

Check This Out rafting trip album page

In May we visited my husband’s family in North Carolina and took James, Kristin and Joel (Kristin’s husband)  white water rafting on the Ocoee River.  This was the first time Joel had been to NC and rafted with us.  It’s such a blast and even though it’s a little rougher than some of the other rivers, you go down with a guide so it feels a little safer to me.

This page was created with the Check This Out album pages in My Digital Studio.  During the month of August Stampin’ Up! is offering discounts on card and album printing, so this is the time to get your projects done.

I’ve been reading and enjoying the DIY projects on the Pretty Handy Girl blog for some time.  Today she featured a post about her friend Colleen.  You can read Colleen’s story here and if you think you can help, click on the picture below.

Summer Vacation Packing List created in My Digital Studio

I created this vacation packing list to make packing for vacation a little more fun!! Perhaps I won’t put it off until the day before I leave, but I probably will.  And that’s OK, because now I’m a little more prepared.  Also, I’ll through the checked off packing list in my bag.  If I have a packing list I can refer to when I’m packing up to come home and maybe I won’t leave as many things behind.

Here’s a printable version you can download and use! – sunny days packing list

Of course, this playful packing list was created in My Digital Studio.  For more information on MDS click here.

Enjoy,  Julie
