Happy Birthday to Me :)

Yup, today is my Birthday, October 30 - Mischief Day, the day before Halloween.... How fitting if you know me...

The project below was created by a fellow stamper who used the Stampin' Up! Perfect Table Setting Die and worked it don't you think!   What an imagination!!!! 

One would 'think' I took the short bus (or is that the small bus, heck, I don't know) to school when I was young, for many reasons... One being... when I first read the tombstone below, I thought Olive Stamps, what a weird last name!?!?!??!  OMG, did I just say that out loud!?!?!?  Ha ha ha

 

I wanted to create a very special post today, for my family and friends.  I wanted to let you all know just how much you mean to me.  I don't know where I'ld be without my wonderful loving husband Steve of over 21 years! Our two boyz, Sammy (6 yrs old) and Billy (5 yrs old) who keep us young... I wanted to say stressed but I thought young sounded nicer:) 

Those beagles are so darn adorable, we would be lost without them.  It's true what they say: It's a dogs life - and don't they know it in our house!

And PLEASE someone tell Billy, he isn't a CAT!!!!  He has just recently started sitting (lounging) on TOP of the leather coach... It's like they turned our Leather Nuzzi (like snoozy) Sofa into a bunk bed! Nice!  

And YES that is Sammy's pillow!  Like we don't have a pillow when we sleep!?!?!? :)

Sorry, I degrees when I think of our boyz:)

I'm so blessed to have kept long distance friendships in Virgina, Florida, New York and other states... from my 'younger years'...  Sherri & David, Snookie & Violet, Deloris, and so many more...

I can't begin to think where I'ld be without Stampin' Up!  I've met so many wonderful friends who are fellow demonstrators or downline  Sheila, Tina, Jax, Debbie, Kristin, Karen, Cindy, Erika & my other VT BFF (wink) and so very many more.... and so many friends who are customers Lisa, Stacy, Ann, Linda, Danielle, Vicky, Kristi, Mary, Kiki and so very many more again.

So today, on my Birthday, I give THANKS to all who have touched my life, if only for a second, or years! Those I have known & those I do know Thank you!

Terry, my BFF from High School who is back in my life, I'm blessed yet again! Jack my high school coach... who was there for me during FUN times and sad - when my dad died shortly after I turned 16.

Professionals like Mrs Fish, Nicole, my doctors who keep me going and Marty my wonderful Massage Therapist!

If it's true, about having more then one life, I must have done something really spectacular in my previous life to reap the gifts I have in this one! 

Thank you Lord for all I am and all I have!

God Bless,

Lois Folla

Lois-- I just had to write when I saw those cute little beagles sacked out on your couch. I have my own little love-- Jasmine-- who you could mistake for your dogs. Sleeping on the furniture. Must be a genetic thing.

Have a good day!
