Dec. 5th Christmas Crop & Chat! *Winner Posted*

Good morning all!!!

My advise - if you ever play that newlywed game - be sure you know what your spouse or SO is going to say was fun, though!!! We got some more snow throughout the night - we are going to have our family Chrsitmas pictures taken today- not professionally - out in our yard - our friends are coming over and we are going to do theirs too! - Going to see Santa in a bit here - he is in our town today, imagine that!!!! - I am scrapping today - do a little shopping later today - and scrap somemore!!!! I hope you are all having a great, safe day!!!! michelle - chat with you all later!!

Back home again, not sure what is on tap for today, might be more christmas shopping etc, laundry...UGH, need to get my pictures taken of my projects too!

Wow! what a busy day for everyone. Shopping, gymnastics, scrapping, getting pictures done, visiting Santa, doing laundry, ripping out carpets. Geez! I'm beat... Think I will just rest now.

I am gonna work on some scrappy stuff here. Have a great day ladies!

Wow! Berta you are fast. Great job!

Good morning (afternoon) ladies! We are just kickin around the house this morning. I am trying to figure out how I can get some diapers for the rest of the week, just discovered we are down to the last two and I don't get any money til Friday! Have to go over to WalMart and put in a photo order for my mom so she can pick it up this afternoon, then on to Brian's house from there, have upper there, and then to the forest museum to ride the train, see Santa, do some crafts, etc. We'll be staying at Brian's tonight so I won't be around again until sometime tomorrow! Have a great day (and night) ladies!!!

Steph...I say when you get to Brian's say oh crap....I forgot more diapers and send him out for a pack, of course he will want to provide for his son.... Well the tree is here in the house but that is it for now....will see what happens later!!

Here's my Santa Card for Jill's challenge - I actually made 4 but I put the other 3 over in the Greeting cards charm section.
This one is my favorite

My hubby and I went bazaaring with my mom and dad. Had a really nice luncheon at one of the churches. I also took some old photo albums from my parents house and Im excited to scan some and start scrapping some old pictures! Hoping to get to these challenges tonight!

I love the Santa card Janice. Great job!

Have a good time Steph, talk to you tomorrow.

I need to get busy, you ladies are busy little bees.

That's a cute one, Janice!

It's been snowing here all day and we did venture out alittle but it's really icy and still snowing! I've been scrapping the day away and getting started on some of these challenges now!

Oh wow! Deanna great job on the card and the bookmark. You ladies amaze me with your awesome talent.

You are all so creative!!! Great job to all!!!! I need to get back up to my scrap room!!!! michelle

WHAT A DAY!! My computer crashed this morning...before I was able to upload my other projects. Have no idea what happened but some unauthorized virus scan took over my computer and even disabled my McAfee virus protection. DH and I drove up to my son's (an hour away) and left the computer in his hands. He called me a few minutes ago to say it's all up and running but I lost a few things. Whew! Am I glad I decided to put almost all my photos and scrapbook LO's on backup disks a couple weeks ago! And the photos that I hadn't printed are on shared documents with my son so I can stil retrieve those. :cheer: It could have been worse!! Problem is I will have to wait till Thursday evening to get my computer back so I have no way to scan and upload anything until then. I'm on my granddaughter's computer right now but they don't have a scanner. I will have to wait to share my stuff.

ON THE OTHER HAND...I feel like Christmas is coming early. :santa: Yesterday I got my Fall Crop prize and an amazing RAK from Jill and today I got a package of awesome Christmas stamps from Tammy...WOOHOO! Thank you ladies. Life is still good!!!

Today is DH's birthday and we have been on the road, shopping, and enjoying a nice dinner out. Just the 2 of us! All day! It was actually a really nice day but I AM tired now and ready to settle in with some hot chocolate and a new scrapbook mag. Night all! I'll be back tomorrow.

Berta, im glad to hear your puter was fixable! I got some stuff done, ill upload soon. Lie saw mrs claus today, we got some good books at a library book sale and they also had baked goods for 1$ each! i hurt my darn back! I twisted wrong and i couldent even take in a deep breath! it lasted several hrs. Andre just got back from his ride along with the sherriff. he had fun. 3 major accidents. 1 was 5 teens in a bad sccident, another was an abandoned car crashed and the last a man in a bad accident. all involved alcohol...very sad. i couldent take pics of Andre at the police station, but i got a few at home. ill upload tommorow.

Deanna and Terri, wonderful work!! I was able to get a few done last night, just need to get them loaded. We just brought up the Christmas tree and got that set up, just need to decorate sometime in the next couple days. We also had our first snow last night! Just a dusting, but really puts you in the holiday season! I've got my Christmas music on and now I need to get hubby in gear to get the lights outside all finished up! Hope you all are having a great Sunday!

Berta - bummer about your computer issues - I had some just the other day - but good reminder to all to back up things!!!! You sure just reminded me!!!! thanks! - Terri - great job on your projects!! I am going to a scrap get together in about 1/2 hour - going to work on things today!!!! Sounds like your son's ride along experience was quite "experiencing" - I hope you all have a great day!!! We have alot of snow and are going to take some family pictures out in the snow later!!! Take care all and stay safe and enjoy the day!! michelle m

We had a light dusting of snow here last night, but it is gone all ready. Berta sorry about your computer...Terri great job with your projects. I never did anything else last night...guess will try again tonight. Went to a craft fair with Mom, but wish it had been better. Didn't buy to much at all...guess will have to hit another one in a week or two. Happy Birthday to your DH Berta...happy scrappin girls, and have fun Michelle with your scrappy friends!

Good afternoon ladies. I did get a few done yesterday, will try to get more done today. I have to get started on work first.

Wow Berta not a fun computer story, but I am happy you most of your stuff is saved.

Love your cards and projects Terri. Great job.
