Cottonwood Week

This is a big, crazy, busy week for us. Mina is going to spend tonight and Tuesday night with Grandpa and Granny H. to help with the crazy schedule. She is going to do her first Girl Scout P. A. (program aide) assignments at Camp Cosmo on Tuesday and Wednesday. This could have been an issue since she has to check in at 8:30 and is done a 4:30, which doesn't jive with the work schedules of Mom and Dad. Grandpa and Granny to the rescue! God Bless Them! So we take her to their house tonight and pick her and Grandpa's pickup, up from there Wednesday night. She has band lessons (God Bless Mr. McMurtry, too, he is so AWESOME!) Thursday morning, (I am taking a break from all this craziness to get a pedicure on Thursday am), then she has her sports/7th grade physical in the afternoon. We are having lunch with one of our favorite friends, Carla, also on Thursday to do crafting show and tell. I have lots of great new jewelry to show her, and she is going to show us her really fun key fobs. In between all of this craziness, we need to take pics of all the stuff we have made, price it, pack it, pack displays, tables, Chris's demo table, tools, glass, and be ready to set up on Friday for the weekend at Cottonwood Festival in Hastings. If you are going to be in Hastings, please stop by and seek us out in the Graham Gallery Artist tent on the east end of Brickyard park this year. Lots of great family things to do, kids 12 and under are free, a weekend advance pass good for all three days is just $15, and that includes a Charlie Daniels concert on Saturday night. My sleepless nights have begun (and I wasn't even staying up to make jewelry), so if you here no more this week, you know where and what we are up too! Hope to see you this weekend at Cottonwood!
