Everyday Chatting and Waffling - OCTOBER Let's get to know each other more!

My mother's 90th birthday was a huge success - I think I will have time to scrap again... I can sleep early, get up later and BREATHE! It was only 60 people, but it was like having a wedding there was so much going on... Pictures will follow...

Yay! I'm so glad it was a success and that you enjoyed it. I really would love to see the mini pages you did for the slides shows. What a fabulous gift that was for her.

What is your next big project? You always have something in the works. :)

There is a slide show for a wedding coming up in two weeks and a baby shower (invites and decorations) that are due shortly also :) You know me so well!

I will post some of the slide show slides and apologise that there are no credits :) Maybe tonight when I get home...
 
This month has been so crazy that I haven't had time to really rest up and breathe!!! I LOVE Fall, and I am so looking forward to the holidays!
 
It's a rainy weekend here in Seattle....not exactly surprising! We seem to have officially turned the corner from our wonderful summer/early fall into our traditional windy and rainy November a week early. Personally I love the cold and rain....except when I have to walk the dog!

What is everyone up to this weekend? My kids are with their father, so it is just me and our dog Lucy....perfect time to get some scrapping done!
 
First time in forever I have been able to get some scrapping done. It has been a wild and crazy October and today was like a breath of fresh air. Six layouts done and posted :)
 
Hello Everyone! It looks like it's going to be another wet day here.... BOOOOOO I wanted some nice cool days for walking with the dogs, but it likes like its going to be short walks this year... Don't know whose more disappointed me or the dogs.... Had a wonderful Satuday baking cookies and bread with my granddaughter... she is 12 now, and is starting to like learning more about cooking and baking... LOL Her brother is into video games, I try to play a game or two with him, but this grandma is the worst player on earth... LOL But he gets a good laugh watching me try.... he is 14.

I see you all have been pretty busy, Lynnie I seen one layout of your Mom's B-Day looking forward to seeing more...She looks great for 90.... Susan, I total understand that, not enough scrapping hours in the day, thats for sure.... Sarah you keep that rain over your way, me and my dogs are not happy with it.... Well I'm going to try and get some layouts done you all have a wonderful Sunday evening.... And be ready for MONDAY!!
 
I hate it when we get so close to the end of the month and I have stuff in my cart that I need, but already have the bonus free kit for purchases over $10. Now I have to wait to place my order until the November kit comes out! Can you feel my pout? lol :)
 
Someone was asking about the layouts I do for videos :)

Well, those were just a few of them. I did over 1200 of them since the beginning of September.
 
Your layouts are stunning! You're so talented! I especially like the last one with the baby...I always like photos that show different generations. :)

They are really just mini-layouts, as evidenced by the lack of information that comes with them. They appear on a screen for 3-4 seconds, so there is not tons and tons of work in them, but I am pleased with them.
 
It looks like today it might dry up some, I hope, the yard is so wet when I take the dogs out... and the younger one loves to get dirty... LOL Are you all ready for the trick or treat night... we stocked up on candy, I am not into Halloween, but I like looking at all the kids in costumes... My grandchildren all have fun with it... I just wish Halloween was a little bit earlier in the year when it's not so chilly for the little ones. And we usually get rain... The nursing home that I worked in we had Halloween night for all the kids, and it was nice because they are inside where is dry and warm and by the time they walk all way through the building and the residents passed out the candy, they have a big bag of candy, we decorated really good and had a haunted house, the kids loved it, and my boss loved Halloween so she always went all out with the decorations, and the residents really loved seeing all the kids dressed up, they talk about it weeks before the big day,and days after... I wish more people would take their children to the nursing homes to spend time with the elderly, Some of them have no family visiting and it breaks my heart, those are the ones I spoiled more... Anyway I'm ready for all the creepy little visitors this Halloween... well I will be back you all stay warm and dry where ever you are...
