Month: October 2007

  • Has it really been

    over a month since I last blogged!?!?   MAN!  Time sure flies. I still have a touch of the sinus crud, but am much better.  I have been keeping up with my friend’s blogs, (I am thankful for subscriptions) :)    I just have been too swamped with driving extra schoolbus trips and then when I am not doing that I am out on The Scrapping Garden monitoring the forum and running the store.  That is a full time job all by itself.  I do enjoy it though. 

    This past week has been our big Falloween event.  We have lots of games, chat/crops, and lots of freebies and special gifts.  Tonight we have 2 crops..   The Board Book crop is at 8pm Eastern and the Software Tips & Tricks crop is at 10pm Eastern

    Ok :)     I am back…   Hubby got home from work and we made a semi fast run to the store…  

    Now, back to the Falloween Event at The Scrapping Garden….   Tomorrow there are 2 crops.  The first one is the ACDSee Photo Editor and Photo Manager crop at 8pm Eastern and then the grand finale…  The Fall-O-Ween Costume Party at 10pm Eastern, there will be lots of prizes…   An mp3 player, digital kits, board books…   So come on out and join us for a really good time.  You need to come a little early and register in our forum, it’s very easy and I guarantee you will have a good time :)   I sure hope to see you :)

    Another thing I want to mention is The Scrapping Garden Blog,  every week a different Designer, Creative team member or Administrative team member is in charge.  We get to learn more about them, their families and what they do at TSG..  My week is 12/16- 12/22,  I hope you will pop in from time to time.  You never know when you will find a freebie out there too :)

    So any of you interested in Digital Scrapbooking should stop by.  It is a very friendly place with lots of helpful advice and just plain fun!  We love making new friends too…

    This is something I have been working on for one of our chats this past week.  It is a BragBook (a 4×6 album) made using the Autumn Bursts kit by Lynn Reloza.  Everyone who participates in this challenge to make a bragbook page will receive every bragbook page made for free.  You cant beat free :) BBPrev BBPrev2

    On a family note…   Little Miss Miranda turned 4 years old yesterday…   We took her and invited all the kids and grandkids for a pizza party complete with ice cream sundaes for the birthday people.  We have 6 birthdays in October and the first week of November so we celebrated all of them at one time.  It was fun..  They played games, ate pizza, drank pop and then had birthday ice creams complete with candles.  And this year no one caught their pigtails on fire!  Last year my oldest granddaughter Dominique got her pigtail in the candle and caught it on fire.  We put the fire out immediately and she was fine.  I dont think she even knew what had happened :)

    Tomorrow my sister is hosting a halloween party out at her house. It will be a chili and hot dog supper with lots of candly for the kids.  I dont think I will make it since hubby has to work and I have an eye Dr appt anyway.  but the kids will go out with their brothers and sister so they wont miss it.

    Since I feel like I have written a book I am going to head out for now.  I am hoping to make the rounds of all my xanga friends real soon :)    have a great night everyone :)
