Cupcakes and crafts...

Well...  the long awaited Creative Escape '08 has come and gone.  I can't believe it's over already.  It's so sad.  I think I have post-CE depression.  Focusing on the GOOD... it was, once again, an AWESOME event!!!  Here is a video of the whooooole event.... 

You can find me at 11:38...

Basically a weekend filled with some of my favorite things... friends, a great hotel and, hello?  ARTS and CRAFTS!!!!  What else can I say?  

Arizona was as hot as Haiti's this time around (it always is, isn't it?) and my pregnant feet were NOT happy with the amount of time I spent walking, standing and sitting and swelled up to SCARY proportions... OMG... I was scared.  They looked like meatloaves at the end of tree trunks (my legs swelled up too).  Once I got back to Cali, things simmered down... so it must've just been the heat or over-use.  I also brought home a nice little COLD.  Ummm... yes, I know I have sounded like I have had a cold for the last 5 months,  so my sniffles and congestion seemed like nothing new (to the untrained professional) but I felt like POO.  I even skipped the Saturday night festivities for BED.  As Murphy's law would have it, I won a huge raffle prize.  Luckily I have honest friends and they brought it to me.  Sweet.  I also won two other prizes during the event, so this was definitely my lucky year!

Here's another pic of Mabelle and me caught in the act of SHOPPING.... don't tell my husband!  Ha!

 

During this trip we also were lucky enough to stop at Sprinkles for some DE-lish cakes.  Mmmmm... mmmm.  If you EVER get the chance... please indulge.  They are SO worth it!!!
I'll be sure to post more pics once I download them... I am BARELY recovering enough to blog right now.
