When Life Attacks

Hello! Life still exists here at the Francis house, I've just been pretty busy. I got a PT job at a wonderful scrapbook company, Basic Grey. If you're an avid scrapbooker, you know how wonderful their product is. The great part, the people who work there are even better! The owner, Greg, is very nice and pretty laid back. I was hired to collate their paper collection packs - so I walk around 2 tables gathering 1 sheet of each paper along the way, then stuff it into a bag and repeat over and over and over again! I had a dare from some of my ScrapJazz friends to take some pics of the inside of Basic Grey, so I did that one day - they all thought that was pretty funny. If you haven't ever seen their lines, check them out at www.basicgrey.com most people love at least one of their lines. Right now, I would have to say my favorites are LilyKate and Phoebe. The best part of this new job is the damaged boxes. When product doesn't meet their high standards for shipping to customers, they put it in a box for us to dig through and take home for free. This week, I got some chipboard letters & numbers, lots of papers, some sticker alphabets and some tags and a rub on sheet. All for FREE!!! How great is that?

Last Saturday I got to meet some of the Utah Scrapjazzers for the first time. We had so much fun and actually got quite a bit of scrapping done (unlike the other crop help in Michigan where it seems they don't :p) I got 13 pages done in my Hawaii 2005 vacation scrapbook. I got the airport and our first day done and am working on our trip to Sea Live Park.

Well, I had best be trying to get some sleep.
Have a wonderful day and keep us in your prayers for our child to find us soon - or for us to find them!
