I tried .... truly I did!

So Sunday rolls around and I am ready to GET OUTDOORS. The sun is even trying to peek through. "Hugh! Let's go to Auskick!". No response. I don't know what is wrong with my kids truly. I have a girl who dances all day but does not want to go to dance class. I have a boy that plays football all day but does not want to go down to the club. I give up. I can lead that proverbial horse to water but I cannot make it drink. "Alright then ... let's go out somewhere .... where's Katie?". In bed - sick! And really sick - temperature, shaking, NOT EATING (a sure sign believe me!). "Okay ... guess we'll stay home then". So you see, I tried, I really truly did. So the question then becomes what can I scrap today - LOL! Lookey what I found. The multi-talented and truly artistic Nance has gone and made these papers and word art for FREE! Thank you Nancy! LOVE them .... can you tell. Got a bit excited with this one, pretty proud of myself blending papers and two photos. Man! I must be bored! Thanks for the great stuff Nance!
