Yahoo!!!

CG's new buddy from school had him down for play last night... I went down to churc hfor fish fry and met up with the kids and the mom.

Needless to say... I've found a new CM person LOL We started talking and I mentioned scrapbooking and that was it. I came home with a personal trimmer, the AF stickers, baseball stickers, and have the fancy cutter blades on order. Just like I needed more stuff! LOL

BUT, I did get some layouts done today. One I did post, of Matthew with the balloons. It's part of a motivational challenge for the month. The other two have CGs name and school on them so I've not put them up the web... but I must say... it's amazing what one can do to "dress up" school pics. I used the 5x7 and 8x10 from spring 2002 and 2003 here in VA. :) They look cute if I must say LOL

Sounds like my first visit to an LSS. I love taking my DH as he encourages me to get whatever I think I need. :-) If you need cat stickers let me know, as I find them at all the stores I go to. I did a whole album of my kitty.
