IC263 - CHALLENGE JUNKIE
Added to Favorite
xxxx

Photo Details
Poster: Karen B Barber

 Once a challenge junkie, always a challenge junkie. This past week, with the whole DD unveiling and the huge excitement that added to my already not too boring life, I GOT NO SLEEP AT ALL!! (slight exaggeration) so when I looked at the crazy suit site last night after telling myself I realllly needed to skip this week so I could sleep....I said, Thank you GOD, it's so crazy I can forget about it. Too bright for me. Hmmmmm.....but then everytime I woke up last night I thought about that polka dot suit......so I got up early this morning to play! :# Once a challenge junkie, always a challenge junkie...LOL. I had not colored this hydrangea in a while, so decided to go with that instead of a rose like he has on his suit. :) Today I am taking 5 grand daughters under age 6 to a very fancy little tea house. One has a fractured growth plate which happened this week in a sledding accident. This should be interesting. Just might be the longest lunch in history, a Victorian teahouse with a grandma, 3 moms, a great grandma, #my mom) and then Tovah 6, Layla 5, Lami with the fractured growth plate in her knee 4, Brooklyn 21 months, and Olivia Lou, 18 months. Maybe you could all say a prayer for us?

Okay, I did the inspiration challenge, my fav, and all is right with the world. Happy Saturday everyone!

I had taken my MIL and GD to High Tea several years ago and we had a marvelous time. I don't think either generation will forget it. Hope you have a wonderous time!

Beautiful card, BTW!

Knew this was your card without looking at the name. It is so you with the signature ribbon and beautifully colored flower. Gotta love those polka dots.
I am a docent at the Molly Brown House Museum here in Denver and we have several teas at Christmas. It is always so much fun to see the Grandmothers, mothers and children on tour and seated for tea. You are building a memory.
