extreme weather & card class pics

one day, i decide to get us outdoors to enjoy the unusually warm weather. bryan took his razor and we decided to have lunch at chick-fil-a. it's a 15 minute walk there from our house. nice, huh? NOT when it's almost 90*! i underestimated the temperature! it got hotter & hotter! so what's a mom to do to cool off her little guy?? feed him ice cream before lunch!
few days later, i saw these clouds. pretty, no?




later that night, we got this. we couldn't believed it hailed. AND, we totally missed it! we were inside a target when this all went down! yes, we SoCal's are weird like that. instead of being inside when it hails, we want to be outside to get pelted by hail!the boys were so amazed at all the ice on the ground!
some pictures from my 2nd card class. it was fun and i had 2 young recruits!

next time, i will leave my cling stamp dirty! the night before, i noticed the cling wasn't clinging so well so i went to go wash it. left it in by the sink to dry. of course i made that "mental" note to grab it in the morning and take it to class. mental note got lost! [surprise, surprise]. luckily, the store had a stamp i could use for the background for one of the cards we were doing. day was saved!
i love how the girls each put their own spin on the cards.
i love their fresh attitudes and young minds! gotta love it when they want to craft with their mamas!
had a lot of fun with these girls! hope they had fun in the class!

i forgot to take a picture but kelly came in with her husband mike after the class. what a treat for all of us! and they brought putter (their dog). i was thrilled to hear earlier in the week that she would be stopping by after my class! next class is may 14th. got to start thinking of new card samples for the class! but my mind is on vacation mode!

Those two little girls are sooo cute! Looks like so much fun, love how crafty the little ones can get! How cool that Kelly stopped by! I'm looking forward to just warm and consistent weather for once here in SoCal.
