Ladies Day Out!

Fun Buys!!!

Friday we decided to go for a girl's day out in Lindon. We left at about 10:30 am and didn't return until nearly 7:30pm! We went to an outlet store that had lots of great deals on scrapbook supplies (paper for .15, 300 eyelets for 2.00, AC letter stickers for .75!). I loaded up. We went to another store nearby and munched on chocolate covered popcorn. Then we went to lunch at this yummy place called Kneaders. They are so good! Good is not even the word! I had a great turkey sandwich, handmade parmesan chips, and a strawberry tart.

Heavenly!!!


After lunch we headed down to Orem to Archivers. I loove that store!!! I bought a fun glue stamp pad and some glitter, some 2.00 acrylic stamps and more!! LOVE IT!!!


After that, we headed to Pebbles in My Pocket. At least we tried to head there. We got lost and drove back and forth for a long time. OnStar gave us bad directions twice and we finally arrived after I called the store and got directions. Crazy! And it was worth it. they had some great stuff-things I'd never seen anywhere else such as Making Memories transparencies and jars of AC felt shapes (for .99 none the less!!). Lots of fun! Thanks Lecia, Michelle, Chelsie, and Becky! You girls rock!!

Books

The book for my book group this month was Fablehaven. It was a good book for older elementary school age kids. Interesting storyline, a little random at times and a little bit of a let down at the end. I guess Mull expected to pick up the story in the next book.

The book for August is For One More Day by Mitch Albom. I loved Tuesdays with Morrie and I hope this one will be just as good. I have just started it so I'll let you know how it is as I get further in.

I am also reading a book called Harvesting the Heart by Jodi Picoult. It is great! It was a little slow at the beginning but it has really picked up and now I can't put it down. I identify a little too much with the main character Paige. I can't wait to see if she comes to a happy resolution or if it will end badly.

I am having a good time reading right now. I seem to be really in the mood for books! If you know of any good ones let me know. I like almost all genres and even the ones I don't like (science fiction and fantasy) I'll read if someone recommends it to me!

I've been tagged so I am going to post 7 random things about me. Hmmm...

1) I could sit on the beach and watch the ocean waves for hours!

2) I can't go one day without doing some sort of scrapbook/art journal type work.

3) I love toast with Nutella on it.

4) I sometimes buy shoes I love even though I have nothing to wear them with.

5) I am addicted to flipflops. I can't have enough!

6) I hate hate hate hate talk radio programs. Even when I agree with what they talk about.

7) I am not a very good blogger! LOL!!
