Flood

It flooded today.

It flooded in the MSS gallery today. I'm sorry. But I knew the MSS Girls would be kicking me out in a couple of days, so I thought better know then later. I really need to get into the habit of posting after I finish a layout... not doing a weeks worth at a time.

Anywho....

Look for some new stuff in the online store this week. That's my goal. Trying to catch up. But not today. Today I need to clean house and get some other stuff done. Prison Break finale and Heroes tonight too. Priorities you know!! ;)

But yah, I'm currently about 3 boxes behind at the shoppe. And I need to get the December kits out by Friday, so it'll be a busy week.

Here at home we started our Christmas shopping! I can't stand it! All the people! Not moving! Standing, standing. Blocking the aisles. (Of course they're looking too and I don't expect them to walk through quickly). I've got 3 kids with me and not a lot of time. It makes me very tense and anxious.... but of course we were in the city. I'm going to do the rest of it here in town which will be MUCH more enjoyable. But... made a dent in the kids gifts. We're not doing much. They have so much already, plus they get gifts from 2 sets of grandparents and one set of great-grandparents... so there'll be enough!
Made a quick stop at Old Navy and got some clothes for Derek. We're not "dress-up" people, so we got him some jeans and a button down shirt with some logo shirts for layering... oh... and a nice parka too! Half price!!
And we found Molly a solid black long-sleeved shirt for the GORGEOUS dress Val (and Cindy) found for Molly!
Top it off with supper at Montana's and it was a good day.
Man that one-day weekend is short.

And here's the flood...

My first stacked layout. Grand Forks haunts.

Finding little towns along the way.

(from SSD). Love these pics. My boys. Watching out for each other. And... lovin' the Heidi Swapp bling!

At least once or twice a week... "How long have you been here?"

Jack's first day of Kindergarten. First time with the distressed embossing powders too. Fun. Looks like sandpaper.

Old picture. Story still true to this day. Why can't boys play without making that sound?

Molly's smile.... where her lips disappear.



And... learning how to have fun.

I really have to get in the habit of posting right after I complete a layout! Oh well.

I gave up submitting for 2006 (as you may know if you read this blog). And, as irony would have it, I got an email last week from Canadian Scrapbookers for a layout I have submitted prior to that. Of course. And, so, once 2007 starts, maybe I'll start submitting again. So you'll be able to find my layout along with Jen's in the Spring issue.

And don't forget... Ali's stopping by the site tomorrow!!!
