I'm back

I was out for a few days. We went up North to visit Andy's cousin, still in pretty bad shape, but every day improving. He gave us a ton of hope this weekend that he is still with us by acknowledging that he hears us in answer to the question. He also laughed at a joke, which brought real joy to each of us. Time will tell, but things are really starting to look up. I am so proud of Andy - he is really a genuinely good soul and his care and love for his good friend is really beautiful to see. I am blessed to have him.

Because I was out for a few days, I didn't have much scrapping time. But, I did manage to finish my entry for the LOA contest at theStudio. My layout is aptly named Fabulously wicked - you'll see what I mean. Both of the awesome photos I used in the layout were captured by Andy himself. The one on the bottom right took real effort. Andy and Sasha are generally adversaries and so it doesn't take much for her to respond to him in that way. Getting the shot with the camera however was a whole other story. But he did it and it really captures what a beautfiul and sweet cat she can be, and how truly wicked she sometimes is. Hope you like it. Voting is today and tomorrow at theStudio if you are interested. Here is the link to the gallery so that you can view all of the entries if you like. Good luck to all!
