Tom sent me a picture of Doodlebug's booth at CHA. They always have a cute set up. Lori, a designer of Doodlebug sent me a picture of Tom cleaning up the booth. I am posting both pictures. I am also going to include some information about items that have been released at CHA. Cute stuff!!! For ideas on how to use Doodlebug product you can follow Doodlebug on Pinterest, Doodlebug on Facebook, Twitter or their blog.
Booth at CHA
Tom always has a smile ! ;)
My favorite product released at CHA
Doodlebug has posted their CHA releases on their blog. Check it out. They have some really cute glitter paper that has come out as well. I should be in sales for them.
I don't like it when Tom is out of town. I miss him. But it is good because it makes me appreciate him so much more. He is so helpful with the boys and around our home. He is so supportive of me too.
He works for Doodlebug Design. Doodlebug is an amazing scrapbook design company. Tom is the Director of Sales. He works for the best people. I am kind of jealous of where and who he gets to work with. I had a lot of fun looking at their blog this weekend. There are some great ideas. Some people are so creative. I got a sneak peak at some of the new items that are being released at CHA (trade show Tom is at) in Anaheim this coming week. Once product has been released I'll see if I can post some pictures.
Doodlebug now has their own line of fabric by Riley Blake Designs. I saw a fun variety of prints in Doodlebug colors and I saw some really fun black and white prints (tuxedo).

I am not the most creative person. I think I enjoy looking at what other people have done than doing anything myself. But Doodlebug has inspired me to to at least try.
"West Wing politico Bradley Whitford reinvents himself for this entertaining free-for-all, a loose blend of buddy comedy and police action that's also an affectionate nod to series like Starsky & Hutch." - Tom Gliatto, People Weekly
Tom and the boys have been talking about a TV series "The Good Guys" for a few months now. They have been watching the series together on Netflix. They are always cracking jokes about Dan Stark. I finally decided to give the show a chance. It really is hilarious. It is about two cops An older cop, Dan Stark (Bradley Whitford), who is known for saving the governors son in the 80's. He is kind of stuck in the 80's. He doesn't always abide by the rules, but he is hilarious and always gets the bad guys. He is partnered with Jack Bailey (Colin Hanks) who is a young, smart detective that always plays by the rules. Bailey is assigned to Stark to help keep him in check. Julius Brown (RonReaco Lee) is the informant that gives Stark information and has often saved Stark and Bailey from danger. The district attorney (Jenny Wade) is the love interest of Bailey. Lt. Ana Ruiz (Diana Maria Riva) is in charge of Stark and Bailey. The chemistry of the actors is great. It is a well written comedy. I am bummed out that it only lasted one season. I think this series would have done well on USA. I'm not sure why it did not make it to a season 2. According to Andreeva (2010), "despite getting a preview run behind American Idol, the series starring Bradley Whitford and Colin Hanks never gained traction and performed underwhelmingly for its entire 20-episode run" (deadline.com).
"You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep a record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of these meaningful and significant things. Some of them may be funny. Some may be of significance only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience." ~President Gordon B. Hinckley
"To you women of today, who are old or young, may I suggest to you that you write, that you keep journals, that you express your thoughts on paper. Writing is a great discipline. It is a tremendous education effort. It will assist you in various ways, and you will bless the lives of many--now and in the years to come, as you put on paper some of your experiences and some of your musings." -President Gordon B. Hinckley
