Elsie's Recipe Box

I got it and I LOVE IT! Elsie is awesome and there are so many great ideas : ) I haven't had any time to play with it yet, I can't wait!

Weekend Scrapping

I did a few layouts this weekend, this is one that I did of myself (I don't normally scrap myself, but I have started lately for my son's benefit in later years!)

I am happy with the way this turned out, I love these papers and it's the first time I tried the Bazzill In Stitch'z and now I am addicted : )

The Hamburg Hideaway

It looks like it's coming along!!! Be sure to check out http://thehamburghideaway.blogspot.com/ Who couldn't use a weekend away with nothing but scrapping, snacking, chatting, and hanging with the girls!!!!! I can't wait to book my reservation!!!

Memories Expo

The Memories Expo was SO much fun! My husband had to work, so we brought Luke with us. Uh oh! as soon as we got there he was pointing at the door saying bye bye! which meant he was ready to GO! There was a man near the door taking donations for children with cancer, great cause so me and my SIL each gave him a dollar. In return he gave us each a red lollipop. So, when Luke started fussing, we immediately opened one up (bad mommy!) but it was the only way we would get any shopping done. We proceeded to walk around and Aunt Dee came across a Skinny Cow booth where they were giving away free ice cream. She thought she would try it out and of course when Luke saw it, he wanted that too! This is the result:

I know, I know...that is terrible, but I was temporarily insane due to all the scrappy goodies surrounding me in every direction and this is the only way we would get to shop!!!

So, here is the result of that shopping!!! I hope to go back next year if my husband will ever let me out of the house again!!!

TGIF!

It's a rainy dreary Friday, I am at work and all I can think about is going to pick up my little one from the babysitter's, going home and getting my pj's on, snuggling with Luke and Neil and then heading upstairs for some scrappy time! ! ! ! Sounds like heaven : )
Tomorrow me and my SIL are going to Memories Expo in Somerset, NJ. I have never been and am excited for the experience! I am going to bring my camera in case there are any photo moments!

and here are a few more from the weekend....
