Scrapbooking vs Hunting

I haven't been scrapbooking much lately. I'm not sure why, just not in the mood. I'm wondering if it's because of hunting ..... new hobby buying for my time. But I'm not really over the top about hunting. I like turkey hunting and I like shooting my new bow, but it's not an obession for me like it is for hubby or even like scrapbooking was for me. I think it might be the fact that I'm not spending any more on it right now. Shopping always put me in the mood. Just to get home and use what I had bought. But I have so much stuff that I really don't need anything other than glues and maybe solid cardstock. I know the new stuff is out, but unless I just need something to complete a page, I can make do with what I have. So, using old stuff isn't really has fun and buying new stuff. And I know that I'm not helping the store by doing this, but it's either buy scrapbooking stuff or buy groceries and believe me, my family likes to eat too much to skip on that. So, buying groceries it is.

Speaking of spending money. Em is going out for middle school cheerleader (something I never did) and it's stinking expensive! Like $1700 total ... no fund raisers! Whew! What a chunck!

18 Days and counting ... sorry I've been MIA!

Not much going on with the family.

18 more days till turkey hunting. Steve called me today and had me listen to the hens across the street. He had taken the 4 wheeler over to where we're sitting up our blind in a couple of weeks .... yea! 2 big toms in the logging road .. whoo.... one for me and one for him! Watch out turkey's here we come!

The NWTF was fun. I have some pictures with "famous" hunting celebs ... you can see them here:

Will Primos and Kevin; T-Bone and Michael Waddell and Mark Drury .... all very cool guys and so very down to earth. It's neat to talk to them. I asked Michael Waddell for tips hunting turkeys with a bow and he talk to Steve and I for a good 2 to 3 minutes about it.

Hopefully the next post will includes pictures of me and my big TOM!
