...Tonight Mrs. Joy pressured me into attending a scrapbooking thing at church. If you know me then you know that I'm not at all creative--I think my sister got those genes! It's always fun hanging out with Mrs. Joy though and I didn't have any other plans--especially since I've become a bum--so I decided to go; my spot was covered and everything...which, now that I think of it, I owe a lil lady some cash ;)....
I'm definitely not Martha Stewart but I did okay for my first scrapbooking experience--maybe because we worked with reciepes instead of photos....that I could ruin lol. I actually had a good time! It was just a good group of ladies, hangin' out, eatin' food, cuttin' stuff, punchin' things out, talkin' 'bout our day and whatever...and wow!...all that sounds really girlie to me now!!....BUT...I'm okay with that; it's a new year and I guess I'm doing some new things :).
As Christian as this is going to sound, I really liked the fellowship aspect of tonight. I mean, I see most of these people every Sunday but I feel like I'm gonna have another connection with 'em, ya know. I'm already, like, picturing myself sayin' hey to Mrs. Karen at church and then striking up a conversation about recipes we've been thinkin' of and "the coolest paper" we found at, like, Hobby Lobby or somewhere and how we're dying to use it at the next meeting...hahaha...
Sounds like you had fun AND made some wonderful memories as well! Connections and relationships are important! PS: I'm not 'creative' either, but I love trying new things. Be careful! It can become addictive! :)
ReplyDeleteHaha ... I'm glad I pressured you into it too! I knew it would be something fun we could do outside of the normal every-day stuff! And it's just an added bonus that you actually liked it :) Hmmm .... what kind of paper am I gonna pick ... and what are you gonna come up with? I'm thinking a trip to Hobby Lobby is in order :)
