Cupid Crop

I arrived early on Friday afternoon for the Cupid Crop at WSD in the pouring rain. OMG it was like a monsoon on the Howard Frankland Bridge and of course, there was no way into the store without getting drenched. A BIG thank u to the lady from REgions Bank. VERY glad she wasn't an axe murderer.

My dear friend, Jan was there waiting for me-and despite the numerous scary phonecalls that morning I was beyond THRILLED and delighted to see her sitting there scrapping away at our table and NOT what the alternative could have been.

My boys came over around dinner time and picked me up to have dinner, which was a nice stretching break and good to get to see them. I stayed til closing of the crop at midnight and although I didn't get too too much scrapped, I did get to play with the ENTIRE line of SMOOCH inks, including the new colors, that Jan had surprised me with!! THey were great for embellishing the farm animals that I needed to finish my layout.

Helen did a bunch of photo sorting and we spent about 5 hours chatting and catching up. It is still weird NOT to see each other every day after teaching 2 gether for 15 years. But by midnight, her pics were sorted and we were officially caught up :)

Saturday I was back at the store at 10-ish thanx to sleeping on mil's couch a few blocks away. That was perfect. I did scrap a bunch, played some fun fun games, didn't win a door prize, but I DID win an entire set of Simple Scrapbook(luved that publication) idea magazines!! I can NOT wait to delve into them and the Cupid Cash was so much fun.

I realized that although I am NOT a movie go-er, I can play a pretty mean game of Pyramid and give decent clues even if I have NO idea who starred in the movies and I never saw them. I also did pretty well on the couples matching game. Jen outdid herself -as usual- with the cute games and great food...........I hope a certain someone enjoyed my dinner last night.

It was a fun, relaxing, fantastic weekend crop and today I feel like staying in my pj's all day, but I think my boys probably have other ideas.

I am thrilled and delighted NOT to live anywhere but FL right now as it is tooooo darn cold and snowy in toooo many other places.

Happy Super Bowl Sunday and I hope that everyone enjoys and stays safe 2 night.
