As of Friday, I am now a member of a new Provo Craft Program called the Cricut Circle. It is a membership club that sends you an exclusive cricut cartridge quartlery, starting July 1, 2010. The first cartridge is called French Manor. I have already made arrangements to sell this cartridge because I dont see any use for it at this point in my life with 3 young boys. The other 3 cartridges are a mystery and I'm looking forward to finding out what they are. I am expecting them in October, June and April. I hope they are something I like, but if I dont, I will sell those too. The cartridges are exclusive to the club members only and if you join later in the year, you may not "go back" and order cartridges from PC that have been released. The exclusive cartridges will not be available in the stores at any point what so ever.
I am particuarlly excited to find out more about Cricut Circle events. I am really hoping that there will be some scrapbooking parties in the OKC area. There is a large number of people on the cricut message board in the OKC area and so I think there is a very good possiblity that they may have an event here. My fingers are crossed, but I am not holding my breath. I would also be willing to travel to Tulsa, Dallas or KC. Maybe STL if it is summer, jason has the weekend off and the cards are playing and he could take the boys to see a game, if he is up to taking all 3 by himself.
There are a few other perks to the club, a charm bacelet and reward points, but I will be completly honest here...I am really hoping to get a lot of goodies and hoping that the circle members truly get to be apart of product development or whatever term that they used. I do all of the surveys that are emailed or on the cricut chirp newsletter, but would love to be able to contribute to where the company is headed and the direction and focus of the products. I dont know what is wrong with me, but I feel like I've become a cricut user to a bit cricut obsessed...So, being in a club is exciting to me and I truly hope that the benifits outweigh the cost or at least I could sell the cartridges I'm sure I wont use.

Captions for pictures below
For whatever reason,Blogger isn't allowing me to add captions to pictures tonight.
Pic 1: taken at Uniquely U Photography here in Choctaw. Mrs. West is amazing and I love David's kindergarten graduation picture.
Pic 2: David's Kindergarten did a Health Program and the children got to make a costume that represented wellness: favorite food, oral health, exercise. David chose to be an apple tree. Not the best picture, but I am not allowed to show pictures online with other students. However, you get to see the costume. The apples are made with my A Child's Year cricut cartridge.
Pic 3: I promised the kids for about 6 weeks before school ended that they could roll down the hill on the last day of school. :) I thought it would be fun to do something a little different.
Pic 4: My 3 boys in their new clothes on the last day of school:) They are growing up.
Pic 5: Jeffery and his toad. We found this toad in our backyard and he loved it and held it for well over and hour. After we released it so it could "have lunch with his brothers", Jeffery cried and said "I miss my friend".
Life is going ok right now. I'm trying really hard to keep up and on top of my 3 boys. They are as sweet as they drive me crazy. Sometimes they are wild and try to stay up all night. Last night, they didn't fall asleep until 12:30! I got them up around 8:45, tomorrow I am waking them up around 6 am (for an early appointment with the truck, it has significant hail damage) and I truly hope that an early appointment cures them from this night owl insanity AND doesnt drive me crazy! On good days, I've been doing my workouts early and I've come to highly value my quiet, peaceful alone time and getting showered and laundry started before everyone else gets started.
