More Party People!

It is Sunday afternoon, I have been to the office, out to lunch and finished my second page of "Party People!" Nice to have pictures of me and Heather.  Wouldn't you say that Brandon, Roy's friend, looks like he could be related to Michael?    I think I might have to add a few more embellishments to the photo, but I just don't know what.....if anyone has an idea, please let me know.


See you tomorrow!!!

Party People

It was so much fun going through the photos of some of the guests at Roy's party.  I know we don't have all of them.  I think I was too busy at the beginning to take pictures!  This is just the start of the "Party People."  Melanie was a big help prior to the party, making dips, putting together the glasses.  We had such a great sampling of longtime friends (ours and the kids) and co-workers attending! 

Roy's 60th Birthday

For the next few days, my layouts will be of Roy's 60th birthday party.  Here it is 2014 and his party was in May 2011!  It was a great party and if you ask Roy, he doesn't remember too much of it.  It was an evening of great food, great drinks and great fun with our family and friends!

Birthday Dinner

Celebrating my birthday with our good friends, the Horaceks and Sharps.  First time for them to be eating in the kitchen!   They are all great sports, ready to go along with what we plan.  

The paper I used in this layout and the one I posted yesterday, is from the Workshop on the Go kit Laughing Lola.  

2014 Scrapbook Challenge

Well, it's January 1, 2014 and I have once again decided that I will make a commitment to scrapbooking a page a day and posting it on my blog.  The last time I attempted this, I was successful and it was great fun!  

I have so much to share and you will be supporting my efforts simply by reading and sharing a comment if you feel the urge.  I will be using mainly Close to My Heart products on my layouts.  I have been a Consultant with the company for almost seven years.  If you are interested in joining me on this quest or if you have any questions about products used, please contact me!

So, let's get started!  Because I always seem to re-organize my scrap studio every January 1st, I ran across photos from my birthday dinner this past November.  Roy made reservations for us and our good friends in the kitchen at Buca de Bepo.  If you have never been, guests actually walk through the kitchen and we are there to "greet" them.  The servers show us the food they are taking out to other patrons.  The restaurant has a photographer who takes the "official" photo of your restaurant experience.  This one is obviously me and Roy! 

Neon Bone Yard - Las Vegas

I can't believe it's been almost a year and I haven't posted any layouts from Heather and Alex's wedding celebration!   So, here we go!   Thanks to my sister Nancy, we visited the Neon Bone Yard the morning of the wedding.   Such an interesting place and a guide to share the history of Las Vegas as told by the neon signs!

Paella Party

What a great idea Debbie had when she arranged a get together to learn how to make paella.  Sara took us through the process step-by-step!  It was a great way to spend a hot August evening.  By the way, I purchased a paella pan but have yet to make it. 

Melanie and Diane

Here I am with my oldest granddaughter Melanie, celebrating the 4th of July - 2012.  I thought I would do some layouts that had more pictures of me than others.  That doesn't happen very often.

Beach Day - Ramos Family 2011

It's a good thing Brenna and her family still live close to an ocean!  They all love the water so much!  It was a great day in North Carolina!

Melanie and Hula

These photos are from one of Melanie's performances last year, June 2011.  Before the yearly show, the groups would go to area Hawaiian festivals and perform.  It was always a great day.
