CTMH Convention … I am still home

Many of you know that I was jazzed about going to the CTMH convention in Washington DC this year, but we lost our fence last year and all of the convention money was used to replace my fence.  While we have a wonderful, sturdy fence I am still sitting here at home while all of my CTMH sisters are in DC having a wonderful time and hearing about all of the fabulous new products.  (so sad)  Kaela is determined that we will go next year “no matter what”! She is bummed too because she has always wanted to go to DC.

BUT…

There is Twitter!  I am lurking in Twitter this week waiting on news from up north, so far I am very excited about what is to come. While I can not tell you much just yet I can give a sneak peak at one item…..

That is it… ponder what you see and let me know your guesses!

NOW ON TO LAYOUTS

I have just 2 more layouts to finish for the Family 2008 album but here is the second half for you to see.

  This is the first time I used the Moon Doggie paper from last year.  I bought a ton of it to put away because we will be going to Hawaii in 2015 and this paper pack screams islands to me, so I will use it for that vacation.  But I also ordered one more pack and I am so glad I did.  I love it!

Contraband warning !!!  But I had too, it fit the theme of the day.

  Forgive me?  

 

Can you tell my family LOVES Halloween?

  I took the picture of the live turkey while at the CTMH Convention 08. How many times have you needed a really nice picture of a live turkey?

The Great Fudge Cook-off!  

Mom is not going to like this photo of her, but I do.  Now if I could get her to write down more of her recipes then I could make a family recipe scrapbook too. (hint) 

So I am still working on Christmas morning but for all intensive purposes the Family 2008 Album is done!  Man I glad because now I do not feel so behind.   I would like to get Kaela’s 7th grade album done before she starts 8th grade but I do not think that is going to happen just yet.  I am still working 4 days a week (12 hour shifts) this summer so my scrappin time has been shortened just a little.  But on the bright side that does mean more scrapbooking money!

CROP REMINDER: July 17, 2010 see you there!
