Long Overdue Update!!!!!

Hello Ladies!!!!!!
Did you think I had totally forgotten our group and our wonderful project? Well I haven't - just been sooooo busy!
So here is what's going on. . .
Our next get together will be on Friday evening, Aug 5th from 5:30 - 8 pm. We will be having Pizza so please let me know if you will be attending so that I can be sure to buy enough. We will just split the cost between us all so bring a little cash with you that night.

The cost for this meeting will be $40.00 and includes all of the supplies in kit #2 - this is a good kit - you will like it! I have ordered some new papers from Teresa and you will be getting new protectors as well. I will also be giving you your trading cards on that day - see below for the questionnaire so that I can get the cards all done.

So that is all of the "business" stuff. Now lets just chat for a moment. . .
I am going to do my Week in the Life next week, starting on Sunday the 5th. I am excited to do this and have been gearing up for it. I made myself a week long calendar to keep on my desk for journaling - it might even make it's way into my album just as is. Have any of you done your "Week" yet? I'd love to know how it went for you. Anybody else have their week planned yet???

Remember that this quarter we are supposed to be working on these sections as well as our Week in the Life. . .
Section 4 – My Community
Section 1 – Home Sweet Home

I got to see Chris D's album this past Friday night - WOW!!!!! You should see it - I forgot my camera or else I would have taken pix to share with you all. She is ready for a new album already! Can you believe it? Great job Chris - I really loved it! Be sure you bring it on Aug 5th so everyone can see it!

Okay I think that is about it for now - so sorry to be so behind.

Trading Card Questionnaire -
*Name
*Birthday
*Why are you doing the YITL project ( keep it sorta short - working on a baseball card size)

Have a great week Ladies - see you all soon!

It's May now. . .

so I am busily trying to get my April & Easter pages together for my album. But I thought I'd share part of my April with you here. . .


We had Lady Bug Day here last week where I live and since I call London "Lady Bug" I of course had to take the girls. I wanted a whole page dedicated to this event so I did a 8x10 digital layout for this event. There were reporters there and I got interviewed (because London was all dressed up in her ladybug gear) and London & my Mom got their pictures in the newspaper. So on the other side of this photo I will add the newspaper article. You can see it HERE if you want.

I hope you all had a great April and Easter and that you got some cool pictures and "stuff" to put in your albums! I have a few reminders for you here too -

2. Have you made a date on your calendar for your "Week in the Life" yet?
