I'm running in circles...

I am not complaining, but I've been very busy this week. I've had something every night and haven't even scrapped. Gasp!

I still owe Halloween photos. So I'll share one for now...
Bet you are just dying to know who is wearing that hot pink wig!

This week I got some really cool news in my email box. I'm waiting on some more details, but I'll share that as soon as I can. (It's pretty neat! Just ask Mel...)
I received an order in the mail today from A Million Little Things. Very, very cool goodies I can't wait to use.
I have a 160+ print order in transit from York Photo. (Check out their deal - free shipping with order of 100+ prints. Only $.08/print.) I haven't used them since my days of sending film in an envelope through the mail! I'll let you know what I think of the quality.
Oh, and I also received my design team package from Scrappin' {Sports} Stuff earlier in the week.
So many ideas...so little time.
This weekend I think I'll lock myself in the bonus room and scrap the weekend away!
Have a great rest of the week!

I scrapped and other random things...

I am finally starting to feel better and get out a bit. Wednesday night I went out with my guys for dinner before we dropped the boys off at church. Thursday I had to have bloodwork done at the hospital and then made a few stops with my Mom. Friday of course was follow up day with the doctor. Before my appointment, Tom and I ran a few errands.

In Target I found brown napkins that I thought would work in our formal dining room. Last year I recovered the seats of our dining room chairs in a pattern I LOVE. However, I've been so indecisive about what to put with them on the tabletop. I ended up getting cream placements with the hopes of some day adding napkins. I didn't see any napkins I liked at Target. The trouble is that the pattern on the chairs has some blue in it. But, I didn't really want anything else blue in the room. I take my blue in small does. We still had some time before my appointment, so I had Tom stop at Pier 1. It was there that I found my napkin rings.Our formal dining room is finally complete! Well, except for window coverings...But I've convinced myself that we don't need them.
Yesterday I decided to stop taking my pain medication. Today I attempted to clean out my closet. Not sure why, but I attempted it. About halfway through my neck really started to hurt. And I had the sudden urge to nap. Now I have a mess in my master bath - clothes everywhere. And, I'm back on my pain medication at least for tonight.

Oh, did I mention I scrapped? I finished this 8-1/2"x11" layout the other night. It's for my personal album and uses random shots from Christmas with my family. Yes, most of the shots are photos of my sisters acting stupid. We do that. I used the Echo Park "Everybody Loves Christmas" line. Hope you are enjoying your weekend. My boys are officially on fall break now! I'll have them for company every day this week. Yay!

  3. The scene of cousin Eddie in the black dickey in "Christmas Vacation" gets me laughing every time!

  4. I don't want my boys to have a Red Rider BB gun because I seriously fear they will shoot their eye out!

  5. I try to make some new handmade ornament/decoration every year. This year I used my sewing machine to make "tree" ornaments.

  7. Tom and I had the same personalized angel ornaments as children and we have them hanging on our tree together today.

I'm breaking the rules and not tagging anyone. I think most everyone's blog I follow has already been tagged.
