Papertrey Blog Hop

Dear all faithful Blog Hoppers,

I am sorry I do not have something ready this month. I forgot about it until 5:30pm tonight central. My hubby left for China yesterday and I just plum forgot. I will try and make something and post it late but look for me next month. I tried to delete me from the bloghop post but I was too late. Sorry.
