We'll be starting the fun tomorrow, and celebrating for the rest of the month....there will be daily freebies, sales, special offers, challenges, coupons and so much more! Make sure you watch this blog, check my facebook fan page and subscribe to my newsletter so you don't miss out on any of the fun!

2012 is here!

Well, it's a new year and that means new things to come! Looking back at 2011, it was not the best year of my life by any stretch of the imagination, but one I will always remember. The best part of 2011 was meeting my son in June and becoming a family of four. The worst part was the challenges I faced during the last trimester of my pregnancy and the wrinkles they have left on various parts of my life. But, it's a new year and a fresh start!

I have set a couple of scrapping related goals for myself this year, have you?

1. Scrap at least 2 pages a month that are not for CT requirements.
2. Take at least 1 picture a week of each of my children.
3. Get at least 1 picture a month of me with each of my children AND 1 picture a month of daddy with each of the boys.

I also have a goal to blog here a little more frequently, about things other than my new releases! Is there anything you'd like to see me share?

Alright, well it's early here and both of the boys are now awake and hungry, so I'm off to take care of mom duties!

theStudio Christmas Carol Blog Hop

It's that time of year again! theStudio designers have come together once again for the Annual Christmas Carol Blog Hop! This is one of my favorite Blog Hops every year because everyone does their own thing! If you hit all of the stops you'll collect 21 mini kits! All holiday themed, all unique!

This year, instead of a traditional carol, I chose the song "I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas! I think this song is so fun, and it has become part of a fun family tradition. It must have been 4 or 5 years ago the first time I heard this song. My husband and I were just arriving at our destination when it came on. I was laughing so hard at a Christmas song about a hippopotamus...we sat in the car while the song finished. We must have heard it a few more times that year....the following Christmas we would turn on the holiday music in the car, and wait and wait for the day we'd hear this song play! Now it's become a fun game for our son as well. No matter where we are, how much of a hurry we're in or what else we have to do, we always stop to listen if the hippo song comes on! If you haven't heard it, you can click here for a You Tube video of it! (Careful, it's a catchy tune!)

Here's my mini -

Expired

and be sure to check out all of the other stops along the way....you'll enjoy the tunes along the way, I'm sure!
