eeekkkkk... I'm a terrible blogger!

Well it has been a while since I last blogged. It's been a crazy November! I should have maybe started this blog in the New Year, as its coming to that Holiday Season, where I am running around trying to get everything done in the few hours I have left in a day after working. I am normally that person who has all three Christmas Trees in my house up the day after Remembrance Day, but well its November 29th and two down, one to go! The third one is up, just have to decorate it tonight with my fiancee hopefully. I love decorating for Christmas, it brings me so much joy walking into my home after a long days work and seeing the twinkle of the lights on the trees and on our home. It always brings a smile to my face.

For me, Christmas is thinking about others and making time for Family and Friends. It's not about the Gifts, its about family. This year is going to be a special year for us with the new babies on my side of the family. I am sooo excited about our first Christmas with them as I am sure Grandpa and Grandma J are too! They are smitten with being Grandparents for the first time and it being to twins too is pretty cool. I love seeing my dad's face while he snuggles with his little men. Makes me tear up just picturing it in my head. It's just sooo sweet!

This year I've decided to create a December Daily Album. It's definitely been inspired by Ali Edwards. I've followed her December Daily over the last couple of years and I decided this year was the year to create this for me. For me its a journal and a scrapbook for the month of December, documenting traditions and a month that definitely is one of my favourites. I've downloaded Ali's Digital Page Layouts and have printed them off and started to put together my mini album. I'll be doing blog posts about it throughout December.

I have been working on some custom scrapbook pages for a great friend of mine! I love scrapbooking her photos and I love how the pages are coming. I'll give you a sneak peek of some of them after I've finished my project for her. Also working on some items for a friend and customer for her Daughter's 3rd Birthday. I cannot wait to see her pictures!

Well back to cleaning up some scrap papers that have I have hanging around and start prepping for tomorrow night's class "Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas" I quite like how this layout came together. Still some spots, so if you are interested give me a call at the store 519.474.2665 so I make sure there is a kit for you!
