CASology - Friday Featured Designer

 

Hello...it's Friday! Today for my CASology post I want to share a thank you card and some photos from my trip this week to Disneyland. I have the sweetest daughter on the planet...seriously, I don't believe they come any sweeter and more thoughtful than my Ashleigh. 



She surprised me with the trip to Disneyland in celebration of my 60th birthday later this month, what a fabulous surprise!!! She had been planning and saving for over a year and she would not let me pay for a single thing. She also contacted some of our dearest friends and asked them to join us for the day in the park. Spending the day with Darrell and Gigi made our trip even more magical, they are so kind and so sweet and know everything Disney. They loaded me up with annual pass holder 60th Anniversary pins for my lanyard and I wanted to make a special thank you card to let them know how much I loved spending time with them and the pins are so fun too.

 Darrell, Gigi and Ashleigh

Feeding the ducks after a yummy lunch from the Hungry Bear Restaurant, this always a tradition of Darrell and Gigi's and we had so much fun we are adding it to our list of traditions.

Breakfast at Goofy's Kitchen, the peanut butter and jelly pizza is my favorite treat there.



This is my favorite picture of Ashleigh from our trip....Goofy loved that she was wearing her hat and had to pose for a photo. So much fun!

I am also entering my card in Darnell's NBUS Challenge

  12. Kim wonderful card. What a brilliant surprise for your birthday, must have been so good to catch up with friends and go to Disney land. Not so sure about the peanut butter and jelly pizza I think you would have to tie me up and torture me before I would try it but I'm glad you enjoyed it.
