A productive weekend...

Well I sure didn't get much sleep this weekend, but I was definately productive! Friday night I was working on some cards until 7:30 Saturday morning. I finally went to bed, but only slept until 1:30pm. Saturday night I stayed up all night working on a scrapbook layout using the amazing pictures of a sunrise that I took a few weeks ago. I worked on it all day Sunday too and finally finished it at 9:00pm! Sunday afternoon we went for dinner at my mom's with Pawlenchuk's and Sonny & the girls. Dinner was good and it was nice to spend a little time together. Finally just past midnight I managed to fall asleep...needless to say I pretty much slept all day today! lol

Along with my creative time I also did a lot of cooking this weekend. I've started to make a list of meal ideas. Ultimately I would like to be able to plan all our menus for two weeks at a time. And then just make my grocery list. Extra Foods has coupon days tomorrow so I'll go get our groceries then. Hopefully I get some fun mail this week...it's been awhile since I had anything fun in the mail. :)

I'm trying to make a magnet advent calendar for Mercedes to count down Christmas, but I'm sure I won't get it finished tonight. One of these days I'd like to start doing recipe pages too. And a minibook called "You make me Happy" about Mercedes and all the times that I get an overwhelming feeling of happiness just spending time with her. And I need to make covers for the dvd slideshow cases, and I still need to make a bunch of cards and finish Mercedes teachers gift.

Here's the layout I did this weekend...
