Cindy's Antics! Stamping, Scrapping, Crocheting, Family!!!

Hi Everyone!! I know that I have been MIA for over a month!!! A lot of things have been happening in my life. I tell you, it is not boring!! I just got back from a wonderful week in Cancun, Mexico with my BFF, Rebecca and 2 other gals, Kim & Sara. Here is a picture from our balcony of one of the pools. The beach was fabulous. We only had 1 days of rain, and that was in the middle of the week, so we shopped most of the day! I got a beautiful ring and 3 pair of earrings. Good deals too!! We went "Bar Leaping" one night and had a lot of fun!! Sara, Rebecca , Kim & Me Our traveling was a disaster, however. On the way there, our initial flight was delayed out of northern Wisconsin, due to the Chicago flight delayed by fog. So, we missed our connecting flight to Cancun. Kim got to go on Stand-by, since her friend Sara did manage to get out from Chicago. So, Rebecca & I were sent to Washington, DC, and we flew out the next day to Cancun. It was raining an...

Well, my short little vacation is over!! My BFF Rebecca and I went to San Francisco for 4 days. The weather was beautiful, in the high 70's, no rain, no fog!! Of course, I downloaded the pictures backwards!!. This first one is my Dungeoness Crab at Nonna Roses's on Fishermans Wharf. It was delicious!!! This is me at Muir Woods!! Just look at the size of the trees!! It was breath taking!!! Here is Rebecca & I. We went out to a club called Asia SF. The "lady" waitresses are really "boys". They lip synched, but were great at dancing on the Red Bar right across from us. They were absolutely gorgeous!! The food and drinks were awesome!! Here is the Golden Gate Bridge. Just awesome!!! Here is the Fishermans Wharf sign. Our Hotels back door was just outside!! We had a wonderful time!! We did tons of walking. Rode the Cable Cars, Trolley and took lots of cabs. We didn't have any luck with the buses!! We also went to Haight/Ashbury and got lots ...

The last 4 days in Gulf Shores , the weather was great! Hot & Sunny! We spent most of the days in the sun, either at the pool or on the beach! We left on Saturday morning and drove to Memphis , so we could visit Graceland on Sunday morning! It was great seeing where Elvis lived! It was smaller than I imagined, but still wonderful!! I'm all "shrimped up" for a few weeks, I think! The food was great. My Grandson Hunter had his check up yesterday, and he is all clear now! Plus he is feeling much better! I even brought him back a Hermit Crab !! He likes crabs, so hopefully he will like this one. My Mom even got my brothers kids each one! They love them!! I did get most all of my ribbon wrapped and put into containers.(3) I do need to get one more container though!! My husband cut matting board up for me, into 2-1/2" x 2" pieces. My Mom did MOST of the wrapping in the car on the drive to and from vacation! We wrapped the ribbon around and secured with an elast...

Well, I don't have anything crafty to post today, as I'm on vacation in Gulf Shores, Alabama. The first 3 days here it rained, but today is beautiful, sunny and about 70 right now. The rest of the week is supposed to be more of the same. Tomorrow we are going to Pensacola,Fl to see the Blue Angels practice. last night I had 2 lbs of crab legs (actually I shared them with my Mom, and she shared her Butterfly shrimp with me). They were delicious!! Then we went souvenier shopping! Today we plan to spend most of the day at the pool and the beach!! The other day we shopped and I got some really cool sandals, called SwitchFlops. I'll have to post a picture of them later! My Grandson Hunter is doing much better now. Thank you to all that have sent well wishes!!!
