Hello my friends....I am back. I missed last week as I was just back from a trip to see my sister and brother in law. I am so lucky as they live in Honolulu and I also took that opportunity to "unplug" for a couple of weeks. That was a big accomplishment I can say!!!
So here we go ...back to reality, I hope you have fun checking out all the great designs we have in store for you today.
This month was also my birthday so I have lots of thank you's to send out so thought I would start with this one. I have been spoiled big time .....lots of fun and activities and it is important to me that I acknowledge all the love. Here is the sentiment for the inside of the card.
I so believe this....it doesn't take much to make someone's day turn around. I was party to that while away. My brother in law Imai is such loving man and always makes time to say hello. We walked past an older gentleman...he had a Navy hat and very hunched over. Imai stopped and asked how his day was and then we talked for a bit. Heard some of his story and found out he was given a medal by President Obama this past year for his service in the navy. He thanked us for stopping and talking, showed us his medal and we thanked him for all his sacrifices. He walked off a little taller I think and I learned something from them both. It was a great day.
Here is the sketch Sandi gave us....
