PUNCH ART #7
I chose a simple project because it's Friday! TGIF. And besides, I've been on a diet this week (just like every week), and want to take a break from it (the diet) over the weekend... Cupcakes, anyone?

MATCHING CARD
PERSONAL NOTE: Another reason I chose this card is that today is my husband's birthday. Our family is going out to dinner to celebrate. Our oldest grandson, Kenny, who just arrived home from his stateside assignment in the Marines will be with us tonight. He's leaving for Afghanistan two weeks from now, so our gathering is bittersweet. Our daughter, Lynelle, married into a wonderful military family and knows the pain of sending a loved one far away to guard and protect our freedom. We will love every minute of being together tonight, but there will be unspoken emotions which will last many months until we welcome Kenny back home and into our loving, safe arms. I wonder what Lynelle will write about this time?
All we can do is LIVE, LAUGH, LOVE... and PRAY. Yes.
