The last 2 weeks

We went to Myton again over conference weekend. Well Micalyn, Nick and I went. Ted had to work and Carson hates to travel, so he stayed in Kemmerer with his Grandma Sherry. We had a good time, Nick played to his hearts content in the fascinating world that is Mom and Dad's yard. Micalyn and Kruz were inseparable when they were together and when they weren't, Mica would talk all about "Her Kruz". I plan on visiting Mom and Dad more this year, so you can count on me coming maybe once a month. After I got back from the weekend with Mom and Dad I ended up working quite a bit at work, I usually only work 21 hours a week and I managed to almost double that. The weekend of the 11th I planned on cleaning the inside of the house because I knew that soon the outside yard would be getting my full attention. This last week I got another migraine. I have been getting them a lot lately but this one was so bad it made me sick. It only lasted about 36 hours, but it was 36 hours too long. After my recovery I went back to work and also started doing some vinyl crafting, if that is what you call it. I took some pictures of some of the things I made, I am still figuring out my Cricut and the limitations that it has.
I made only one of the 12x12 tiles, I plan on making more soon. Once I get the hang of it. I also need to buy different colored vinyl. I only have 4 colors and one of them is beige, It wouldn't show up on anything I have. I am going to Park City next weekend and I will pick some more supplies.

This glass block will be for valentine's day. I need to buy some ribbon to make a bow for it. The glass blocks were hard to photograph because of the glare. (yes I turned off my flash, there was still a glare.)




I made the 6x6 tiles quite fast and relatively easy. I need to buy some green vinyl so I can finish the Christmas themed one. After I made all of these I put my craft supplies aside so that we would have room for company. Kacey, Madisen and Pheonix came to visit this weekend. Mica had so much fun playing with a little girl. They were princesses, mommies, horses and they took turns being "Mary Jane" and had Spider man (Carson and/or Nick) save them. No pictures of that, I will try to get some in 6 weeks when they come back to visit. That pretty much sums up the last few weeks. Hopefully I will get it together and post less sporadically.
