Here are the 6x6 pages that I made for my share with our group. This was to build a scrapbook of our vacation

ATV RIDE see post below this one for gifts

Tuesday We had a sceduled ATV ride, We got covered in mud but, Slim and Ashley got it worse because they were behind me and I was playing Super Mario. LOL. It was so much fun. It was raining so we had to wear rain ponchos but for what they were worth, We still got Drenched. LOL. Oh what fun it was though. We rode up to some waterfalls, oh my how beautiful that was.

Stampin Up gifts

Day 1 we got 2 gifts in one because we were late getting there, Mine came on Monday instead of Sunday. It was a great surprise, 2 Non alcoholic Lava flow drinks(I had plenty of Alcohol ones later on too)(LOL) and these two drink holders were full of beads and flowers to take home.

Then for my first spin of the prize wheel, I won a grab bag which had the ribbon in it.
I came back to the room from posting on my blog and there was our bags, His and hers bags for Slim and I.

This was actually on our first day though so we had day 1 and day 2 gifts on the same day. Slim was gone to get our Rental car so Ashley(my niece) and I found the bags when we got back. I ordered up room service and had Chicken noodle soup that cost 12.00 for a bowl. LOL. It was good and I needed it but WOW. Expensive. It made me feel better to eat it but it hurt to pay for it. LOL. Ok so Day 2 for me was another gift which is my 3rd gift and my second spin for my spin I won a package of Clips

and For my gift back at the room was a gift that was wrapped in leaves and it was a goodie bag full of snacks.

Another treat was our Make n Take Basket, What a cute way to get them. I can't show you the stamp set because it will be a new release in our new upcoming catalog and I am not allowed to show you

Plus our Shirts that we purchased upon registering for our trip. Slim and I bought the Hawaiin Shirts which we picked up on day 2 for us as well.
Day 3 I spun the prize wheel again and got Horray Hardware and a magnet. We also had Share night which we got more gifts...A Package of Clips, Package of Designer paper and a rub on that says Stampin' Up Island Girl on it.

Later on there was my next gift....A Red Sarong to wear or use as a tablecloth.

Day 4 and final spin day was Summer Sun Corduroy Buttons. Then we had our Luau which was fabulous and upon returning to our room was a gorgeous Aloha Necklace for me. How exciting it all was.

Home From Hawaii

Hello everyone,
Well, Our trip home was much better than the trip there but it felt longer home then it did there because we wanted to stay there. LOL. Who wouldn't? The trip was incredible.
I was sick on the way there (Puking Sick, probably flu), and then I hurt my foot on the ATV trip but it was worth it and I hobbled around the whole week after hurting it. Then I caught a cold on the ATV trip too but we still kept going. We swam in the manmade beach and watched the dolphins and still did the parasailing. It was incredible. I will have plenty of pictures to share later. I was so tired getting in that I unpacked, took some medicine and went to bed, slept 12 hours and now I'm still a little wiped out but I'm HOME. My dad and my cat both greeted us at home. They missed us.
Upon arrival, Slim, Ashley and I were greeted by Shellie Gardner(Co-Founder of Stampin Up) as soon as we got off our shuttle. She walked over and greeted us with a hug and that was the best part of the whole trip there. She was so sweet to have taken the time out to greet us knowing that we had already missed the first day of events there. She was on her way to lunch but stopped to greet us and we thought that was so great of her.
Anyway, I have to go get me some caffeine and I'll be back later to post some awesome pictures.
Thank you all for Helping me to earn this fabulous trip. I am on pace for earning the Cruise and this would be my first Cruise Ever so I'd love to earn it, but if I dont then I'm thankful for earning Hawaii.
Until Next time.....ALOHA!!!!!!

Hello everyone, We had a great time at the class on Sunday. I have set the next class date for April 26th at 1:00 I will email out the details for that class later on. With Hawaii coming up and all I can't squeeze one in until April and the hall only had 2 dates available that I had open so thats where we are at.

I have something new to share. My grandkids and I went to have our photo done in a Grammy and Me session. It was so much fun. Scotty said in one that this was the Stuart Little pose for him. That is the one with him standing by the 4. just so you know which one he was talking about. It was cute. Kylie was a hoot as well. They wanted me to put her on the black cloth and as soon as I put her down She started crawling away, but they got her picture.

Anyway, Enjoy. I have some photos of projects coming soon, At least once more before I leave for Hawaii.

Thanks for looking. Oh and dont forget to sign up on the blog candy post a couple post's ago.
