Fantastic Weekend

As you can see by the title, I had a fantastic weekend. I went scrapbooking at the Rapid River Lodge and it was a lot of fun. The Lodge seems to be a well hidden secret and I don't know why b/c it was beautiful and roomy. It's tucked in the woods next to a river that was high from the spring thaw and the rapids were beautiful and sounded amazing. Very relaxing, its just too bad it got pretty cold so sitting outside for long wasn't as enjoyable as it could have been.

I took my computer along and successfully learned how to scrapbook one digital page. I had some trouble figuring out my photoshop program but in the end, it was a lot of fun & I met my goal of at least one digital page. I then worked on my "All About Me" scrapbook and nearly completed it. I have a little more journaling to do but that shouldn't take too much longer for me to complete.

The food was great! We were divided into groups to make the meals and everyone brought & made yummy food. Then there were about a million snacks to enjoy including some amazing carmel chex mix and a pumpkin bread roll. YUM! I plan to get recipes and try to make them myself.

We learned how to make some cards with a Stampin' Up consultant and I was able to enjoy something that many of you know I like to do.....TALK!!! LOL Yup, that was me...the talker. And it was a lot of fun.

Oh, best of all, my Aunt Carol shared a lot of family history with me and I was able to record it in my Family Tree program. LOVED that so much. It's one of the reasons I started scrapbooking in the first place, to share memories dear to me and learn about where I came from and share with my children so they can share with their children and so on.
