This past weekend, I got the joy of spending time with my oldest daughter, Kati, and youngest granddaughter, Sammi. She plays on the NorCal Surf Select team and was at a soccer showcase here in the Vegas area. It was amazing and fun watching her play. Hoping college coaches will notice her intensity and skill. Saturday was a beautiful day to be outside. Sunday was a completely different story---windy-windy-windy! Mike and I must truly love our granddaughter to endure the wind all day!
That has nothing to do with today's card, just wanted to share my weekend. Hope yours was better than mine! Host Code for March is XT9ZZ63K
I've never seen a blue lobster, but have heard they are rare and exist. I wonder if they stay blue when cooked. The Ocean Friends Bundle and Friends of the Ocean Designer Paper are two beautiful products (from Debbie Henderson) that I just had to have. It's a fun and bright card to make and give to someone.
