I am exhausted!
Seriously.
It has taken me about 24 hours to complete this blog post.
{and sadly it isn't even an especially interesting post}
The event went off without a hitch and by the looks of all the craziness that went on {you know who you are} I think a good time was had by all.
We scrapped.
We survived a few paper piercer injuries and a blackout caused by the infamous Elizabeth Kartchner.

We shopped.
We heard alot of talk about boobs but Brittney raised $4000 for her 60-mile walk team for breast cancer so it was a good thing.

Someone paid $400 for Margie's apron.
And someone else paid $250 for another one of Margie's aprons.
Someone actually paid good money for a layout & a mini-album by me. Ones they have never seen before.

I bought a {much needed} camera strap.
Thank you Nancy Holley.
Fabulous.
Fabulous.
There were people not there who were greatly missed.

He was actually very creative.
Watch out Tim Holtz!
Shout out to American Crafts, Prism, KI Memories, and My Little Shoebox for helping out with my class!
I actually sat in & completed Jenni Bowlin's class for the first time ever.

I copied her projects exactly.
She is Jenni Bowlin for goodness sake.
I am going to put them up in my house and tell everyone that I made them all by myself.
{chuckle, chuckle}
{shame on me}

I know there are other interesting quips from the weekend but I am too tired to think of anymore right now.
It is to bed early for me again tonight.

Thank God the rubbing didn't make it all the way to the back of the room!! You guys did an awesome job and I personally can't wait until the next time. And this "brave soul" thinks you rock and can't wait for the finished projects! I will be posting pics to my blog because I did kinda sorta rub elbows with the best of the best right??
