I hope you all had a great weekend! Friday night we had a bunch of our friends over and played games. I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time! We tried to relax at home the rest of the weekend and get some rest before starting another busy week. I had fun playing with a couple challenges in the Eclectic Paperie forum. If you are looking for some ideas and inspiration there are so many great projects posted there, so make sure to check it out!
This is the card I made for the cupcake challenge, which can also be found at Taylored Expressions. I am always up for any challenge involving sweets- especially cupcakes!
 
And this card and purse were for the birthday ensemble challenge. The purse opens to reveal a notepad.Â
Oh! And we got some really great news! Grandma (Jack’s mom) just bought her plane ticket and will be coming in 31 days! Yeah!! We are SO excited (as you might have guessed from the count down!) Just knowing that she is coming gives me the energy to work hard at Arabic for a few more weeks so we can have fun showing Grandma all of our favorite things here in Morocco. She informed us that she did some research and there are four things she wants to see- Jack, Tina, Hailey, and Parker (though I have a bit of a suspicion that Hailey and Parker are going to be far above Jack and me on the list!)
