National Scrapbooking Day

Anyone else scrapping today? I am within ONE page of my annual goal - I keep it doable at 52 pages a year, and then I am thrilled when I go over. May seem silly, but it works for me. If I set my goal at too high, I'd never get it done because it would be too daunting to me, lol!

There are several things I hope to accomplish this weekend, since it is NSD - they are all craft related (stamping and scrapping) - but they aren't all scrapbook completed pages - see my to do list, and please, add your goals and let's see what we can do!

*Clean up stamp table (put away the 16 stamp sets where they go, and the 6 that are in my craft room, too!)
*Finish one more two page layout to put me OVER annual goal
*Plan projects for next week's stamp club meeting here (I'll cut stuff throughout the week)
*Plan 5 (2page) layouts for my mini retreat coming up in June (that's just a start)
*Print photos for the above
*Watch the Astros game at 6 with Bo :)

What are YOU going to do?????

Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

For me this is a family holiday. I have to admit I love Christmas, but by the time it gets here I am super exhausted and then it passes by so fast that it is kind of a disappointment. Thanksgiving on the other hand is my best holiday. Not a lot of thought into this one, a Turkey, and the fixings. Usually my greatest thought is what kind of dessert I am tasting first! Its filled with lots of family and food. Every year I am thankful that I have my complete family with us still and we can all enjoy a great family day together. I am also grateful for all the new additions that come into our family and this year we are welcoming 3 new people to our Thanksgiving table. I look forward to seeing my sisters that live far away and enjoying the chatter and catching up. I also enjoy that it is usually a long weekend and we can all relax for 3 more days before we have to hurry off to our busy lives on Monday. These are my favorite things about this special day, what is yours!

Your comments are welcome about what you are thankful for about Thanksgiving!
