CookieCrazie's Week in Review
_________________________________________________
Personal Side
This Friday finds me back at home and diligently preparing for my daughter's
wedding just one week from tomorrow.
Arriving home from Ukraine and sleeping in my own bed last Friday night was pure bliss.
Then I took an entire day to do laundry, pay bills, and clean off my desk.
On Sunday, it was time to jump back into life and start decorating 200 wedding cookies!
I had to work Labor Day Monday at the hospital......so that took a chunk out of my week.
But some how, I managed to get finish decorating yesterday.
And now all I have to do is package each one of them. :)
Once they are finished.....I plan to start preparing for my family's arrival next week.
I want to decorate the house for fall.......
and prepare some yummy foods ahead so that I can
concentrate on enjoying my family while they are here.
My husband and I are official empty nesters as of last month.
While I was gone in Ukraine......my son moved about 3 hours away.
The house has been pretty quiet now that I'm back.
I miss him a bunch.....but I know the move was a good step for him.
Ginny of
Creative Cookier has partnered with me to help raise funds for Ukraine missions.
She is producing
CookieCrazie custom cutters.....and donating a part of the sales to my efforts.
In August.....she sold 79 of the CC custom cutters!
How awesome is that? :)
Thanks to all of you that have ordered some of those cutters.
Ginny & I are excited about the substantial impact the cutters sales
could have on next year's Ukraine trip.
I have many ideas rolling in my head for more custom cutters.
Stay tuned for exciting news and tutorials on this new venture. :)
