bleck)

I regret: not
doing more

I believe: that times are tough but we'll be ok
I dance: like Elaine on Seinfield
I don't: like mashed potatoes
I argue: with the kids to clean up after themselves
I write: important stuff in my scrapbooks, but not nearly enough
I win: because i'm the mom

I wish: I could work more often
I listen: to just about any kind of music
I am scared: of the kids getting the nasty stomach bug going around and ruining this weekend
I need: to lighten up a bit
I forget: to give my kids their vitamins every day
I am happy: watching my kids grow
MAN! was that hard. So... on to the tag part of it. If you are reading this... YOU are tagged! Link back so i know! I wanna read!
i used the back of day 1 to extend my day 2 page. I took a few pictures that summed up the day and made them small. The swirlies are foil rubons... LOVE them. the transparency covers the main picture for day 2.
I kept it super simple and let the picture do the talking. It's a typical scene with DarRell with Sam (and with either Rianne looking on or joining in)
I love when the kids calm down enough to watch a movie together. It doesn't happen often when all three are there together but when they are, they usually sit like this. It just melts my heart every time. I left it as was and put a little bit of journaling around the picture. More journaling on the transparency for the next page.
left it simple. Everything was said on the journaling box on the front of the transparency. I just needed to cover up the adhesive on the back side so i covered it with patterned paper and some embellishments i have sitting around.
...catching up with a old buddy that i grew up with. In fact, i don't have many of them left so it was great talking with him. He recently moved again so going to visit him and his family is a little more difficult when i go north to visit my family. Even a better bonus. He talked me into using my webcam that hasn't been used in, i dont' know... forever! Of course i had to load it and then troubleshoot to get the stupid thing to work. And when i was about to give up, it started working right.
Mostly just some journaling about our usual December 1st traditions about getting out all the Christmas decorations. Usually the Christmas tree is the main focus, just as it was this year.
I REALLY wanted the focus to be on this one picture of Daylon and Sam so i made the whole page a 8x8 photo. The picture is really grainy but i loved that they were both just so enthrawled in decorating the tree. I had a few other pictures that i loved too (which are also very grainy. Obviously the lighting in our house is much to be desired) so i added them to the back of the journaling spots from the front. I added a few stickers and called it good.
