It's the Weekend!!!

Whew!  Hectic week.  I had planned on doing all my Christmas shopping & grocery shopping this past Monday.  Especially since Meijer was having 15% off everything.  But then came the snow & ice; and with that, 2 snow days.  I had 4-6 kids at my house.  And the roads were too icy to go out (a salt truck went into the ditch - ya know that's bad when that happens).

On Wednesday, Jacob had his Christmas concert that night.  Thursday, Ethan has his Christmas party at preschool and Jacob had a cub scout meeting at a nursing home to sing Christmas carols (so, we had to go).  Friday, Sydney & Jacob had their Christmas parties and the school assembly.  And right now, I'm watching the neighbor girl until one of her parents gets out of work.  Busy, busy, busy. 

At least Sydney and Jacob got their haircut before the Christmas concert and parties.  Speaking of hair cutting, Alissa Jones of Pick a Paper Designs has a new kit out at a new store!  She is now selling at 9th and Bloom and her new kit is called "A Hairy Tale."


It is so cute.  It comes with lots of cute elements & papers & even journaling stickers.  Here's a couple of layouts I made with fantastic kit:



You can only get this kit at 9th and Bloom - www.ninthandbloom.com  
Have fun scrapping with this fun kit!

Wacky Wednesday!

I feel so tired.  Not enough sleep.  Sydney has her Christmas concert last night.  It was soooo nice.  The concert was the 5th-8th grade band, strings & handbells.  It was really nice to see the progression through the grades.  The handbells'  concerts were just lovely!

Speaking of lovely, RK Designs has a lovely new Christmas digiscrap kit out called "Country Christmas."


And she also has a Word Tag set that goes along with this kit:


Here's my layout I did with the kit:


And this is my very first hybrid project!!!  I did try others, but they didn't turn out.


And if you go to her BLOG, she has a coupon for 50% off her products at Designs in Digital only!!!

  So, get the coupon, go shopping & get scrapping!

December 1st already???

Where does the time go???  I can't believe it's December already.  Had a late start today.  I thought I set the alarm, but I guess I didn't (or someone was playing w/the alarm clock).  So, we all overslept & ran around like crazy this morning.  I did get Sydney & Jacob to school on time but Noah was about 15 min late.

I did get my laptop back from the manufacturer to fix it.   I think it worked fine for 1 day & now I'm having the same problems again.  The battery won't charge.  Back to the repair department again.  *sigh*  I am not doing at much computer work on my desktop that I was on my laptop.

But some good news - I did get some photos of our pumpkin picking  scrapped!  I used a new kit by RK Designs called "Pumpkin Patch" and it's soooo cute!!! 



Aren't they great????  I love this kit!  You can purchase it at Designs in Digital HERE or at Digital Design Den HERE or at Digital Scrap Ink HERE.  So go pick up this fantastic kit & get those fall photos scrapped!
