Last Day for The Scrapbook Station


It was wild and crazy at the Scrapbook Station on it's last day of business! Carla found this "stash" and was wondering if it was Renee's! Ha! Thanks Carla for the memories of a fun, fun place! I have found some wonderful new friends and have developed a real love for scrapbooking...thanks to you! I wish you only the best as you begin your new adventure with Hamley! Go get 'em!

A few more scrapbooking memories!





A few more photos of last night and the fun Disney Classes we had. Great memories girls! Thanks!

Last Class Night at the Scrapbook Station

The Last Class busy at work!

Melisa must have heard something funny from Charlotte...oh wait a minute, I think she saw her "goofy" hat!
Love the "scotty" glasses Kathleen. I don't think anyone else in the world could ever pull of a look like that. It's simply Mahvelous!
Renee giving "Goffy Charlotte" a squeeze. We sure are going to miss all the First Class treatment we have all received down at the Scrapbook Station.
Well, what can one say about this photo! Mary, what kind of a tale were you telling?! I know, it really must have geen a good one. I think Jamie chimed in a little too! What fun, fun folk!

Anyway, like I said, the Scrapbook Station's last day is today and I am working! Rats! I think at 4 p.m. I will go down to the store and see what it looks like. I am sure the walls will be bare and the girls will all be pooped. I told them they needed a "box o' wine" down there for 5 p.m. Catch ya'll later!

It's Friday and Farmers Market!

Wow! Friday....and the Pendleton Farmers Market is underway. I just went out and took these photos so everyone could see how much of a going concern it is. Every year it seems to get better and better. By the way, there are Wiener Dog Races this evening on Block 3 of Main Street. They begin at 6...don't be late! Should be tons of fun. Hope everyone has a rockin' weekend! Mine won't start until Sunday as I have to work on Saturday! Later...gater!



Amy....More Garden Photos!

Yup, I couldn't resist putting these on my blog for Miss Amy! The first is a Trumpet Flower, Beautiful Asiatic Lilies, and lastly...carpet flower. These have been eye candy for me as I sit on my patio...taking it all in!

Dollies, dollies everywhere!

Miss Megan had the time of her life last weekend with her dollies! She loves the American Girl Dolls and figured out a way they could all ride with her on her "bike"! She rigged up a way all of them could "hang on" and enjoy the ride?!!! Anyway, just wanted to share her enthusiasm for dolls. Bet it takes you all back to the oldie days when you enjoyed them too!

Lassoing a Passel of Professionals

The Chamber girls have been lassoed as a passel of professionals! What fun!

Funtastic Weekend With Friends!

Zona and I with our "creations" we put together at the Scrapbook Station on Saturday. We truly enjoyed all the girls and instructors throughout the time we spent in class. Zona always has a good time at the "Station."
We were clowning it up at Hamley's piano. Of course, I don't sing at all! It was just a great photo op!
Zona and myself acting "normal"! Ha...is that really possible?! We had lunch at the new Hamley Steakhouse and were impressed with the ambiance, service and food. What a gorgeous place. Anyone want to do lunch?
Zona and Andy are the neatest couple in the world! They have been there for me through thick and thin and I am so thankful and blessed that they are my very best friends!

It is such a peaceful, calm place to be...watching birds & squirrels! Amy...these photos are for you! Ha! You told me that you wanted to see more of my garden....enjoy!

My best to everyone on this Terrific Friday!

On yes, I have wonderful, wonderful friends coming to spend the weekend...Zona and Andy! We are going to have a great time hanging out this weekend. I will share pictures on Monday! Love to all!

That Classy Hamley Place


The outside of Hamley is just so massive and inviting. I can't wait until I can dine outside on the balcony. Doesn't it look grand?





Notice how pretty our greeter "Miss Carla" is. She fits right in, don't cha think?! Just thought I would share the beauty of it all.

Weekend Helper!


This weekend was the "cleaning of the shed" as things had totally gone out of control! We took everything out of the shed and put things in piles of toss away, keep, etc. Then putting "like" things together and organizing them in the new CLEAN shed, we are very, very in control of things once again. Miss Megan was a great helper with the saddles! She wiped them down and made them look so clean. Thanks Meg! Can you believe we took over 600 pounds of junk out of that shed and hauled it off to the landfill?! Wow, it sure does accumulate, doesn't it?

Private Tour of Hamley






I just received a quick "private" tour of Hamley by Miss Carla! She gave a wonderful, informative & fun tour! Thank you Carla. Isn't Hamley a beautiful place? Pendleton is very lucky to have such a "Classy" establishment.

We're All Ears!!!!






Yup, we are all EARS at the Scrapbook Station! Last night at our Disney Class we decided to "show our ears"! What fun! Our project was one of my favorites of the many we have done so far in our Disney series. Thanks Melisa for teaching this fun, fun, fun class.

'Simple as Blowing Bubbles!

Remember when we were young how much fun it was to have a little bottle of soap and a wand? It was magical how we could dip the wand in, blow and then see the most beautiful, colorful bubbles! That's what was happening this afternoon. Beau had a blast! Watching him took me back to my childhood and how much fun I had with something so simple. It was a beautiful day today.

Fantastic Friday!

Whew, the week is almost over! It is a beautiful day and everyone is hustling and bustling about. Farmer's Market is just about ready to open and I see lots of goodies out there through my window at work. Hmmmmmmmmm, I may have to check it out.
I've had lots of help today with my blog....slideshow and all. This html stuff is pretty tricky! Have a great weekend!

Those Girls!


The Queen and the Creator! Hey girls ... you are GREAT! You have a wonderful talent of teaching and making people laugh at the same time! Thanks for EVERYTHING!



Charlotte, what would I do without you and your pencils? Seems I just can't make it to class with a pencil in my scrapbooking tote! You have a unique ability to entertain with all your antics! Thanks for your helpfulness.


Ronda the Blogging QUEEN! Yup, you are a Queen too! I can't begin to thank you enough for giving me my private Blogging 101 Classes! Wow! I'm looking forward to the next one. THANK YOU!

I sure am going to miss the Scrapbook Station and all the fun times we have shared. We will HAVE to make sure to get together on a regular basis and scrap, gossip or whatever!

Correction on Festival!

It wasn't a silly two week festival.....it was a TWO DAY festival! Silly me!

Stagecoach Fun in May

Whew! It was sooooooo hot in Indo, California at the Stagecoach Country Music Festival! I had to drink so many beverages in order to stay cool and hydrated! Darn! My daughter, Calli, showed me a wonderful time as we enjoyed this two week festival. There were 55,000 people there each day! We were able to enjoy the music of Alan Jackson, Brooks and Dunn, George Strait, Kenny Chesney, Sarah Evans and many others! This photo shows how much I was enjoying the sunshine. I actually came home with a sunburn! I think I am still peeling....but, I think that was too much information!

Mushrooming in May



Mushrooming in May.....we look forward to this every year! This past May was EXCELLENT morel hunting. The weather was perfect and the exercise was super. We went up to mushroom a couple of times, once with all the grandkids and another time with my brother, Dennis, Linda, and Jillian! It was sooooo much fun and we brought home a huge bunch of the delicacies!

Back at Work!

Well, it is back to work! I am sharing a photo of our beautiful Mt. Hood! How lucky we are to live in Oregon!
