Well Helllooo!

I know that I am way behind on my blog posts.  Partially because I have been busy, but also because  I have been in a slump.  BUT… I have shifted gears and have dove head first into card making again.

But before I start posting the cards, I would like to share a couple of things from my trip to visit my son and his lovely lady and my adorable grand dog. Then, starting tomorrow, I will begin posting some Christmas cards.

We had a great time.  We mainly just hung out and enjoyed each others company but we did volunteer at the Food Bank and even did some crafting.  It was over Halloween so we did some decorating of the apartment stairwells in hopes of letting the kids know we had treats for them.  But alas, not one trick or treater. 🙁  Below are some pictures of the trip.  The first photo is of a Harrier jet that bears my son’s name.  Cool huh.  Then the cute Mr. Socks (Don’t tell Jazz, but I think he is pretty cute!); the pumpkins we carved; some masks that the kids made; yummy cupcakes; Snow White Beryl and Mr. Socks; the stairwell and some chocolate yummies Miss Beryl made.  I miss them already!

Thanks for letting me share.

See you soon,

Wendy and Jazz

Happy Easter Everyone!

I hope you all had lovely days spent with family and friends.  Here at Jazzydoodle we had a weekend spent working on the house.  It is finally painted and if you tune in tomorrow I will show you the before, during and after photos. (if you are interested)

I am sorry that I have been such a poor blogger but the home projects have taken us a lot longer than I had planned.  Please be patient with me for a couple more weeks and I should be back on track.

The photo above is from my front yard.  I love daffodils.  Every thing about them. I love that when they arrive it means spring is here.  I love the lovely yellow color. But I especially love the fact that they come up year after year for this poor pitiful gardener.

Wishing you all well and I hope to have some posts for your intermittently these next two weeks.

Pawnee National Grasslands

Good Morning. Just got back from our long weekend.  We sure had fun doing a whole lot of nothing.  Sometimes you just need to decompress and the Pawnee National Grasslands is a great place to do it.  It’s quite and remote at night you can see an amazing amount of stars.  It really is impressive, away from the city lights, you just don’t realize how many stars there really are.

Jazz especially liked listening to the coyotes. 🙂

I thought I would share a few pictures of the area to give you an idea of what I mean when I say remote.

It is a special kind of beauty. Tomorrow I will be back with a card for you.

As always, thanks for looking.

Hello World

one step at a timeWell, here goes.

I saw a post today mentioning Ali Edwards One little word project.  The idea is that you pick one word for the year and focus your attention on it. That got me thinking, what word would I choose. I thought about this throughout the day and the one word that kept coming back to me time and again was Grow

This is my year to push myself out of my comfort zone and grow. This blog is my first step. I realize that only my family and friends will be reading it because it is so new, but it still makes me uncomfortable. What if they hate it? What if I am boring? Well, at least Jazz can finally get a full nap in, so I guess it will be worth it. 🙂

So I am going to publish my first post to the world and GROW!

I hope that you will join me on my journey.
