CHA

OK, so I admit I had to "steal" this picture taken at CHA. I took the big camera; why I don't know but thought it was a good idea at the time. I decided to leave my camera in the hotel room and let others who brought smaller cameras take the photos. I should be getting set of pictures this Friday while at a crop but Lori, I had to steal this off of your blog early so I could post.
We took some awesome classes! My new favorite line is Little Yellow Bicycle. Their class was great, their booth was great, their make and takes were awesome and most importantly I love the paper.
MAMBI also had a great class and I really like their new paper line. There was lots of SWAG to take home and I did win a new font for my cricut from ProvoCraft and a pink sizzix sidekick.
So CHA was a week ago but it took this long to post because I went to a scrapbook EXPO this weekend and took a few more classes; both from Rusty Pickle. Not nearly exciting but I did get to buy a few of those new Basic Grey stamps I saw at CHA. Now that I've been out shopping to the last two weekends, I can't wait til Friday night to crop and get some of these projects done!

The hood is gone

The phone call no one wants to get at midnight on a Friday night.
"Hello?"
"Tony, it's Casey. There's been an accident"
"How bad is it?"
"The hood is gone...its not there anymore"
"Where are you, I'll be right there."
When all they can get out is the hood is gone, it can't be good. And it wasn't.
Sparky has been offically put to rest and delcared a total loss.
Good points:
1. Not Amanda's fault (he ran a red light and never even hit the brakes) 2. He had insurance and everything will be paid for. 3. The trip in the ambulance was a 2 for 1. (Both Casey and Amanda went in the same ambulance) 4. (and most important) Both Casey and Amanda are fine outside of a LOT of bruising, scrapes, and soreness. 5. It had both front air bags deploy, even though they were hit from the side (lucky? they were hit that hard to cause deployment)
Bad points:
1. We are short 1 car.
Not so bad considering the fact that the radiator is now sitting in the tansmission, the hood and bumper are on top of the car, and the interrior dash is much close to the seats.
