If it's Thursday it's Tucson

This week has gone by so fast.. I was sitting here this morning and thinking..wow where did the week go? Monday I worked at W.S. and then in the afternoon started sorting thru my paperwork for my taxes.. to get organized and sent off to my most awesome brother-in-law Jim to do for me.. I try to have it very organized so he doesn't have questions . Tuesday morning my son Steve and I attended a session at the Mesa Arizona Temple and then that evening I went to see my grandaughter Taylor in a softball game.. Weds. morning and evening were my card classes at The Mad Scrappers .
Yesterday I traveled to Tucson with Kristan to visit 2 of her stores. The first stop was a new store "Pages in Progress", that opened late fall 2007. ( the pictures in the slide show are "Pages in Progress). It is the most amazing store !!! HUGE..with an enormous crop room (seats 50), a separate die cut room with tons of dies and several die cut machines. A room dedicated to paper and you know I was in "HEAVEN" in that room.. They have a make and take bar and a lounge area for tired scrapbookers or for dad's to watch the game while mom shops. The entire store and the staff were wonderful.. Great addition to the north side of Tucson.
We left the store around 4:00 on our way to Making Memories Unforgettable.. another of my favorite spots in Tucson.. I decided to treat Kristan to dinner at " Claim Jumpers" good food and great atmosphere .. It is right next to Making Memories Unforgettable.
We arrived at M.M.U. around 6 and were so happy to be a part of their special event for the evening. They were having a preview party for all their best customers. It featured all the new merchandise they ordered at CHA so that their clients could place pre-orders of some of the large items and also see all the great things they have coming in soon. Kristan and I had a make n' take from Scenic Route as well as demonstrating the new crushed velvet flocking from Doodle Bug. Kristan had a table set up with all the new items from the companies she represents. They had great food and the store was all decorated with red balloons and red Gerber Daisies.. It was such a fun evening and I love those girls in that store. We headed home about 9:15 and arrived at Kristan's door around 11:30.. Long - fun day, meeting new friends renewing old friendships and seeing new and wonderful things..
Today I get to take Morgan to her Aquatic P.T. then lunch at her request.. She is slowly getting stronger, really likes the P.T. in the pool. Her at home tutor is a high school teacher at a local High School and has her on track to graduate with her class, so things are looking up for her and her family.
