I honestly didn't care who won the Super Bowl this year, but my dh was rooting for the Giants.....he likes to go with the underdog :) I came into my scraproom to check my mail (since we had to cancel our Super Bowl party) & Jim started yelling because the Giants scored, but then he started yelling again.....all I thought was maybe they scored again. He ran into my scraproom saying "the Giants won & I won!" At first, I thought he was joking around with me, but nope.....he showed me his football pool sheet & yep, he won......$240.00!!! WooHoo! I finished this layout last week, but kept forgetting to post it, so here it is.
I used the new Making Memories Chelsea's Place papers from Michaels along with AC Velvet Thickers & felt winter snowflakes, rhinestones, Jolees snowflakes & some Let It Snow ribbon that I've had in my stash forever. Sorry the pictures are so dark.....my scanner doesn't work right now plus we haven't had any sun in a while to take a decent shot of it & the flash would have just glared on the pictures.
Yesterday was the UAW bowling tourney & I thought I'd bowl good in it since the lanes were synthetic. Boy, did I think WRONG :( My first game was decent (177), but it went all down hill from there (155 second game & 135 for the third). I ended up sticking on the approach in the 9th frame of the second game & that just really messed me up for the rest of the day. I gotta stop letting stuff like that get to me! Jim, on the other hand, bowled REALLY good.....his games were 243, 224 & 227 for a 694 series :) We didn't do too bad as a team, but we won't know if we placed for quite a while yet.
Tomorrow, the 4th, is my Dad's 80th birthday. I know it's hard for him to believe that he's lived to see 80, but I knew he would make it :) He just has this spirit about him....a spirit for life! Happy Birthday, Dad.....I wish I could be there with you to celebrate it! But since I can't, I'll be watching a lot of QVC for their scrapbooking shows. I'm going to try my hardest not to buy anything......although.....we-did-just-win-some-money.....hmmm. I hear QVC calling my name ;)
Til next time,
Benita

I didn't watch the super bowl, but I probably would have if I knew that we would win $ for it lol. There's a lot of stuff (scrapbooking, of course) you can buy for $240!
Thanks for sharing you day with us. Will you share your husband's winnings? Just kidding. Have fun spending. Nice White Layout like the details.

Great layout. Happy Birthday to dad. He looks good for 80! Thanks for the reminder of QVC.
I love your layout. I never thought I would say it but "sometimes" I miss the snow!
Congrats to Jim on winning the football pool. I didn't care who won either but I was happy that the Giants pulled it off. Maybe next year will be my team's year-Go BENGALS (one can hope can't they?)!
Off to watch more QVC...So far, I've only bought one thing.
