Thanks everybody!

Sherri, those trees are just so cute and creative!

Linda, I love your group photos and cute little stockings!

Great layout Linda!

Terri, now I want chocolate cake! LOL! I'm too lazy to make it too...I might walk to the store and get a chocolate bar cause I NEED some chocolate of some kind!!

Brian stopped by so I got a photo of my layout...the photos are from Christmas '04, just before Austin was born.

What a cute font Steph! Love the rounded corners too!

Steph and Linda, what great layouts! Glad you had time to scrap this weekend! And who mentioned chocolate???? Now I'm craving a Hershey's bar!

What Chocolate??? You guys finish all your halloween candy all ready?? We are still eating our way through chocolate etc... By the way great layouts Linda and Steph...still need to get mine posted....glad to see so many people came to crop and chat this weekend..Yipeeee

only suckers left in Austin's Halloween candy, and when I went to buy some one sale afterwards all that was left was a box with fuzzy peaches and sour patch kids...which I bouht and LOVE but only chocolate and potatoe chips will make my cramps go away! LMAO!! At least that's what I tell myself! So, we just got back from the store and mama is happy again

Michelle...the "happy holidays" came from a pack of Basic Grey christmas chipboard I got last year. I still have most of it left so I have been trying to use it up!

ONE MORE!!! i found this old pic of Brit and Andre` and had to scrap it!!

Very pretty Terri!

I have been away from the computer this weekend. I was straightening my house up last night and trying to catch up on my DVR!! I love what everyone has done so far!

I can see that I am not going to get any scrapping done this weekend. I am dozing off reading the MB tonight! Today I took Phoebe to her puppy class and she gets to graduate next week! Then my sister, nieces and I went to Bass Pro to see the opening of Santa's Workshop.

I have also been having fun with my new lens on my camera! I did a photo session with Phoebe tonight. I was able to get her to sit still with giving her a treat if she would sit and stay for me! It worked!

how cool!! id love to see the pics!!

This has been a fun crop & chat. Love seeing all the Christmas pages!

Hey, Steph I can totally relate to the chocolate thing. I keep Hershey bars in the house all the time. They are definitely a cure-all for whatever ails me!

I almost trashed the photo in this LO but it's the only photo we have that you can see the old cardboard fireplace that we used for Christmas for years until we got a real wood stove. After we retired it we donated it to our church and they used it for several more years at Christmas parties and Scout activities.

Berta, that is an awesome fake fireplace!! I wonder if they still sell them???

Terri what a cute photo!!

Berta, that is so neat!! What a fun thing to scrap about! Love the layout!!

I got another 12 cards done tonight, and painted 11 pinecones with white paint....finally! They are going to be alot of work, I keep putting them off, but step one is now done!! Tomorrow I will have to paint the heads. And now I am off to bed, my eyes are getting sore! Good night ladies!

That is so funny Berta!!! And I love the layout!!!!

Steph, Terri, and Berta all wonderful pages!

I'm off to run a few errands shortly and then hope to do alittle scrappin'!

Oh Berta, that's a great layout, love the story about the cardboard fireplace!

Everyone has done amazing work this weekend! Remember you have till midnight tonight!

OMG...Berta, I had forgotten all about that cardboard fireplace...our parents had one for us and we were growing up too!! Thanks for bringing back that memory...love your layout! Here is mine...just some of our tree pictures from years gone by

Great layout with the Xmas tree shots Jill!

Jill, I love your tree photos! I like how you did several from different years. I have a couple not so good ones to scrap from last year. Do you have trouble getting pics of your tree when it's lit up?

I don't know if it will be bad or not this year with the new camera...but I tend to think so since we switched to all white lights...we used to have the multi color but switched to all white the neat thing about those lights is that you can make them flash in different ways...I think you can choose from like 10 different settings...I didn't want the lights to take away from the ornaments...every year I go to the craft fairs looking for hand made ornaments to add to my tree every year...it is just amazing up close...Yep, Berta you have given me a great idea...that I want to get pictures of those special ornaments up close this year
