Scrappily Urgent Weekend Retreat

This pass weekend we held our "1st" retreat for our "Sweet & Sassy Scrappers" in Covington. We had a blast (of course)! We had a total of 9 ladies out of 10 so we feel like it was a total success... We had door prizes, played a game, and did a class using folders. Everyone worked on different things and all seem to get a lot done. At least, I did!!! lol I actually got more done this weekend then I do at the other events that I go to. Nicole quickly made sure that I knew it was because I am usually shopping and socializing...- NOT ME??? lol We have some awesome scrappers in our little group of scrappers. Thanks to Nicole & her family for opening there house up for us to stay and take over... As any scrapper knows, scrapping takes up a lot of space especially when you want to bring everything but the kitchen sink... Our weekend retreat ended on Sunday late afternoon and that night Nicole & I stayed up making a purse. They came out really cute. I didn't get a picture of hers yet because she wanted to add some ribbon but needed to go to the local scrapbook store to get the ribbon she wanted so hers will be a supprise! Our next event will be held again in Covington but will be at "Scrapfest". I hope that some of you plan on attending that event. Until then, have fun scrapping (I know I will!).....

SAD NEWS

Last night I received an email that one of my favorite local scrapbooking stores in town is closing! However, on a happier note--I did have a chance to go by the store today and take advantage of some of the great sales! In addition to all the purchases that I made today, I also purchase a double paper rack for my new scrapbook room... Now, I am busy setting my room up and trying to get organized. Anyway, I would just like to encourage everyone to support the local scrapbook stores in town. I am the 1st person who wants to get a sale or a good deal, but one thing that you cannot buy is the support and knowledge that you get from our scrapbook stores!!!!

I am so excited!

This weekend, I did major cleaning and combine by 2 boys in 1 room. They still have lots of space and now I have a "scrapbook" room!!! YAY... I wanted them to have there own rooms but after telling them time and time again that if they didn't start keeping there rooms clean that I would put them together, I finally follow through with my words. It is really for the best becasue now our upstairs family room will now become the playroom/tv room. Now, all I have to do is get busy scrapping. This upcoming weekend, Butterfingers is hosting a "Scrappily Urgent Weekend Retreat" at her house in Covington for our Sweet & Sassy Scrappers Group. I can't wait to see everyone again. We will have no doubt a great time!
