I remembered a "learned" a lesson today... you know those kinds of acts or reactions that come naturally to us as children, being jealous or spiteful when something is happening for someone else that you want for yourself. Then when we grow up we learn how incredible it feels to be happy for someone else. It is such a powerful feeling. The feeling moms get when their kids master something after trying for so long. Something HUGE is happening right now to someone I know... Something they have worked hard for, never asked for, have been so humble about their talents, they are deserving, and they are not selfish. You know who you are CONGRATULATIONS! Thanks for giving me that "I am so happy for you feeling" It feels good to feel good for you! HUGS!!!

Love It
I saw this link on a blog I read by Cathy Zielske. I watched it and thought how cool is that. I grew up in a home where I was loved very much but hugging and affection sometimes seemed strained. I am a super affectionate person and I love and drool all over my kids and hubby every minute of the day. I was blessed with one hand holding love bug and two that tolerate me. I thought, I wonder what I would do if I saw this guy... I would be one that passed by and then ran back after thinking it thru... A free Hug!!! Take em when you can get em! What would you do? (put your speakers on) Now go give a hug away!

All I have to say is I hope I'm home to see it and I'll sure be taking some pictures because that will make one heck of a page!!!!

fall mode
We are getting into fall mode around the Ziegler house. I cleaned up the house getting ready for some fall decorations and we cleaned up the yard a little this weekend. Today I did some fall scrappin' with the new papers from Junkitz (we've been waiting FOREVER for this paper to come. So here is what I came up with. I have loved these pictures of the girls and their pumpkins since I took them last year, the lighting was just right! The card is for my card class on the 17th, if you want to sign up.
I also wanted to share that I think Niguel is going to be a writer for Hallmark (I mean my card company) . Check out this sentiment she wrote for the inside of one of her cards...
" Friendship is more than just joy. It's imagining things, believing in your dreams, and most of all spending your special life cherishing your very own friend"
Too sweet!!!
Have a great day!
