Prom, Music Monday, & RAK

Feels like I haven't blogged in awhile. Sorry. THANK YOU so much for the kind emails and comments regarding my brother-in-law. He was able to come home last week but he had to go back in last night due to some blood pressure issues. Please continue to keep him in your thoughts.

Lots to share. First, my sweet son had two proms recently. I was bummed that I missed the first one last weekend (Ashley's prom) but I was out of town on a scrapbook retreat. Luckily, Ted snapped some pics for me of the cute couple...

Love how playful they are. :)   
Saturday was Alex's prom so I decided to take some pics at a local nature preserve by our house. (Am I the only person that haven't been to places right down the street from where they live that end up being great?! lol) Here's just a couple of my favorites...

My heart soars when I see such respect, tenderness, and love between a young couple like Alex and Ashley. No drama. Ted and I kept saying that night how blessed we are with Alex and the fact that he found such a good girl makes me one happy mama. ...
Switching gears...thought I'd do another Music Monday. Again, I'm not going to load the videos on here because Blogger and I are still fighting. lol Here are some links instead...

-Love THIS song. His voice melts me.

-THIS song was on the finale of Brothers and Sisters during the wedding. (love that show! just heard it was cancelled!! boo!)

-I would give anything to sing like THIS girl. Love rockin' out to this song.

-THIS song is just silly and fun. Makes me smile.

Now...how about a fun RAK? I took this pic of my new skirt I just bought....
It's scary how much this hobby gets in my brain but I bought it because it reminded me of a certain stamp I have from a fav. company! :)  Leave a comment and let me know what stamp it is and from what company and I will pick two winners who have the correct answer. The first person who answers right will win a prize and I will pick one person randomly from the comments too. :)

Have a great day! Thanks for stopping by!

As soon as I saw the fabric, I thought of Hero Arts and the solid flower! (It's a cling stamp and comes in 2 sizes) Us stampers sure think a like!

Oh, that is SO the Hero Arts Large Solid Flower (seen here: http://www.heroarts.com/products/productInfo.cfm?ItemNo=CG248&subCat=A02). I thought the same exact thing when i saw that pattern! How funny!

Alex's prom pics are awesome. My DH and I went to our senior prom together and have some sweet pics from that fun night!

Your BIL is still in my prayers.

Take care!

I am a Cincinnati girl too -- weather has been crazy -- my yard is a swamp and cutting the grass nearly impossible! Supposed to get crazy again today -- good day to stay in my basement and scrap! :)
