Our anniversary trip was great! We had fun in the mountains! I checked out half the blogs yesterday evening and you girls are awesome! I love it! Going to check the rest later!
I just got back from my kids Thanksgiving dinner at school...I never miss them but hate when I leave to go back to work...They cry and it makes me feel so guilty!
Can't wait to cook with them tomorrow (Abby loves it too!) and then I am going shopping with my girlfriends at Midnight to the outlets...I don't need anything though because I am almost done - just need a couple gift cards!!!!
If anyone is interested I will be having sales on Saturday for Scentsy and Thirty-One...I can email you details!
Hi: Happy Thanksgiving to all of you who are celebrating this week. Enjoy your turkey dinner and happy times with family and friends. We have so much to be grateful for.
I just wanted to wish everyone who celebrates Thanksgiving this weekend a wonderful time with their family and friends.
We don't celebrate this here in Australia, but I will be thinking of you all as I am very thankful for the wonderful support, inspiration and friendship you have all shared with me over the last six - eight months.

Thanks Jenn...the Turkey challenge was fun! It was a hard choice between The Cutting Cafe and Sassy Cheryls but Sassy Cheryls won my vote! Feels like Christmas! That might have something to do with the fact that we just put up our Christmas tree and are getting ready to decorate it!
Christy and Danie,
Your gift certificates are in you email.
Thanks again to all who participated...the cards were really cute!
I still am waiting for Molly and Mary Kate's swap cards to get here...then I will post them all.
Have a great evening! I will drop by everyone's blog and give some love tomorrow....been busy planing beans xmas party and getting the house decorated!
Ok here is a question.....Hot Chocolate or Chai tea Latte? and what memory it brings when you drink it?????
Thanks Jenn for gift certificate, I will let you know what I put it towards.
Also Monica and Heather I received your cards in the mail over the last few days, thank you so much, I love them all and it is so great to see all your beautiful work in the flesh, not just pics on your blog.
I got some new stamps to play with today from Outline Rubber Stamp Company and also recieved a new bigshot to replace the one I broke so needless to say if you are looking for me you know where to find me......my craft room.
Hope you are all well, and had a lovely thanksgiving for those of you who celebrate this holiday.
Will check everyones blogs out later tonight.

Jenn, thanks for the gift certificate...it came at the perfect time as I was feeling pretty yuk with a stomach bug which now has my daughter home from school. I look forward to using it!
I hope everyone is having a good week....I can't believe it's December tomorrow!
Hi Everyone. I received Monica's card and tags in the mail today. They are beautiful and thank you.
Hope you are feeling better tomorrow Christy and congrats for winning the gift certicate, you also Danie and Tammy for being so speedy with the challenge. All great turkeys. Thanks Jenn for hosting the last challenge.
hmmmmmmmmmmmm....since I don't drink tea or coffee...It would have to be hot chocolate. And as for the memories...I've lived in snowy places my entire life. So...you play in tihe snow, you come in the house. Dripping, and freezing and hot and cold...all at once. And then you make cocoa!
Well, now, I come in before that is all happening...make the cocoa. The kids come in and are super excited. Then, they run off to play and I"m cleaning up the drippy, cold, clammy boots and hats and gloves and snowpants!!

Hot Chocolate!! It takes me back to a December over 40 years ago when I was standing on the roof of our church office playing the Christmas angel
the night a Texas blue norther had blown in. I was looking down on shepherds and sheep huddled around a warm fire. An hour later when I climbed down from the roof, I wrapped my hands around a huge mug of hot chocolate! I remember it has the best one I ever had!
Hey girls! Happy belated Thanksgiving for those of you who celebrated it this past week! I had Wednesday off work b/c the kids were off school wed-fri and DH was already off on Friday to stay with them. I had to severely clean my house and catch up on laundry since I am working these 10-12 hour days I think nothing gets done during the week. It also doesn't help that the kids and DH are total slobs!!!!
I recovered from cooking my first Thanksgiving meal just in time to go back to work on Friday and begin working on our month end finacials. Whoo hoo - I am done with month end today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am celebrating by having a cup of coffee and eating some pumpkin pie since the kids are in bed :0)
I don't like Chai tea - only sweet tea, and Hot chocolate is good - but I am a coffee girl!
I am trying to upload some pics as I type so I can update my blog-and then I will be off to blog surf!
Happy stamping!
Hey, Ms. Dawn! I see you are a big winner at KSS again!! At the rate you are going, you will soon have all the images on your wish list!!!
Congratulations!!!
I am sssssssooooooooo excited!! I can't wait to see what the new release is going to be. Too bad I will be on a cruise that week! Wah. I'll have to look it up as soon as I get back! When do the sneak peaks start?
You may have noticed that my blog has changed......in the last few months I have been consistently frustrated with various restrictions on my creative journey that have been set by SU. Basically it doesn't sit well if I was breaking them, but at the same time I want to break them. Some of those restrictions mean, I shouldn't be promoting anyone in the Tangled Up In Creativity Group on my blog if they sell or promote competiting products and I shouldn't be using or promoting other product that is sold by competitors brands. Some of their blog restrictions are a little ambigious and have me a little confused.
We all know how many other wonderful products are out there, so I am excited to be moving on so to speak.....I will let my account with SU Lapse and become someone's customer for the SU products I desire.....but this frees me up to buy, play, promote anything, everything and anyone I want.
I can still do my classes (just using lots of different products) and I have some other interesting opportunities to explore in the New Year.
With that being said....some months ago I also set myself a goal that for 2011, I wanted to get onto a Design Team. I am pleased to annouce that my application was accepted and I am now a Creative Team Member for the Scrap Lounge which is an online forum here in Australia similar to Splitcoast for the Scrapbooking Community.
So the new year holds many new changes for me as I go in a new creative direction, and I would like to thank each and everyone of you, because it is your friendship, and inspiration that has helped me to make this decision, which I know is the right one for me at this time.
I so look forward to another year of friendship and inspiration from you all in 2011
Thanks again

Congratulations, Danielle!! What an exciting time for you!! Scrap Lounge is so lucky to have you on their team! And it is freeing to be able to use and share any products you love!!
Congrats Danie! I am proud of your decision! I wish you all the best with all of the products you will now be able to use! I know you will do great on the DT! Have fun...Can't wait to see what you come up with!
Congrats Danie for making the design team. Sorry to see that you are leaving Stampin Up but you have your reasons and you need to do what is best for you. Can't wait to see what you have in store for us.
I am so proud of you. It is wonderful watching you develop confidence and feel like you can take on the world.
2011 will be so full of new challenges and experiences for you Dani.
Congratulations Danie!!!!!! I had the same feelings about SU nd let my demoship lapse and expire-I just felt there were too many great stamps and other products out there to be tied down. :0). I am sure this next year is going to be unbelievable for you!!!!!!!!!
If you could have any "crafty" item...no limits...what would it be?
Mine: the entire line of Copics including any new future colors (wow that sounds really greedy!) But I woun't lie...would love to have all of them!
Does storage count? I would love to have a custom designed stamp room, rather than my hodgepodge of bits and pieces!
Other than that, to not have to think craft budget every month and just buy what I see and want, when I see it!
OOOh-this is a good one. Most of al - think if I could ask santa for more TIME to stamp and scrap I think that would be first choice. Or maybe a clone of myself to work, take care of the kids, and cook and clean so I could enjoy my craft room more.
