It’s me squealing with delight!  EEEEEEEEEP!  I’m going to Artistic Affaire L’Automne thanks to the ever amazing Kim Caldwell and my most generous husband Chuckle T. Butt!

I waited until the last minute to sign up and this morning when I went online to register, all the spots were filled.  Poop.  Was I ever disappointed.  Chuck suggested that I email her and lo and behold she was super sweet and willing to squeeze me in.  I am sooooooooo excited!! Chuck is giving me the weekend for my birthday so I don’t even have to worry about paying for it.  Yipee!  Oh, and I get to take a class with Lisa Kettell!  How cool is that?  I love her work and her book is so much fun.  I’m such a groupie.

I just wish that Mom lived closer so she could join me again in this crafty adventure.  Kim asked whether or not she would be coming and I had to tell her she wasn’t.  🙁  Oh well, I’ll just have to make sure she comes with me next summer.  Apparently she isn’t going to do one in the spring.

Thank you again Kim for being so sweet and accommodating.  And thank you Chuck for giving me a stupendous birthday gift.  (Mind you, I still want a cake.)  😉
