Good morning ladies!
A dark and gloomy day here.. looks like it’s going to storm any minute, which is what our weather has been like over the last couple weeks.. brutally HOT (40c/104F) lately and random thunderstorms popping up everywhere… Last night we had a storm and just before it started I caught this pic in my backyard.. looked like a little glimpse of Heaven through all the dark clouds… I thought it made a pretty cool pic anyways and wanted to share it with you!

Glimpse of Heaven
Yesterday my 2 oldest kids went to gma’s for the day/night to swim and hang out, so I invited over my bf Michy, to scrap, watch a movie, chitchat, and eat munchies.. lol! Not necessarily in that order!
haha!! It’s not very often I only have 2 kids for the night, so it was nice and quiet! lol!! We watched 21 with Kevin Spacey in it, *LOVE* him, such a brilliant actor! It was *FABULOUS* movie!! Well worth a watch! Check it out:

We had a great night and I even managed to get a couple challenge cards done for the Caardvarks challenge this week!! Kazan and Laura from 2 Sketches 4 You (see side bar for link) created 2 exclusive sketches for this weeks challenge, and once again, I was very inspired!!
Check out the challenges here:
