Hello Saturday.

Hello nothing to do. Hello Henry's Birthday :) Hello Saturday.

So, CHA knocked my socks off! I got to meet so many friends!!! The amazing Anabelle O'malley, Lucy Edson, Dena Coe, Brandin O'neill, Natalie Kalbach, Bonnie, Kiki, Julie....who am I missing????? I have emailed and chatted with these guys on the phone for so long, it feels so good to finally meet. It was the hardest I have ever worked but the funnest ;) AND MISS LYDIA JACKSON....need i say more about my roomy??? She was awesome and funny, too. Her quote of the week, "Good job, Ellen. We are almost on time tonight!" Oh, too funny!!! Can you tell I am late a lot???

I can't wait to go again, LOL! Though I did have a sappy moment on the plane on the way home where I shed some tears b/c I missed my boys {shhh...don't tell brain that ;}

And let me say, the people from Core'dinations and Darice that I worked with ARE THE BEST! I mean, great people with HUGE hearts and THEY LOVE CORE! :) The fact I only get to see them a few times a year makes me sad. I can't believe that I get to do what I love and get paid for it. BLESSED.

Speaking of blessings.....

So today is February 5th and it is Mr. Henry's birthday! My sweetie pie, lamb chop, monkey buttin' snuggler :):):) The little man that melts my heart every. single. day.

In honor of the Super Bowl tomorrow, I will share with you this photo, my favorite of Henry over the last few months (let me remind you I am an Eagles fan ;)



And it wouldn't be a post if I didn't have some scrappy stuff! Here is a layout I did for the crop over at the Nook a few weeks ago of our trip to NYC this fall.
