Merry Belated Christmas :)

Now that the Christmas rush is over, I feel like I can finally breathe again!  I have enjoyed the past two days with my family, and I've spent alot of time just "chillin' out".  My husband is off work until after the first of the year, and I'm only working a few days.  This is the one time of year that we actually get to spend a little down time together.  It's nice not having any plans and no schedule to follow.

Here's wishing everyone a safe and prosperous New Year!

5 Year Anniversary of Weekend Crops

I am celebrating 5 years of weekend cropping!  My very first crop was one that I hosted in Ocean City, Maryland.  I remember when I first had the idea, I thought if I had 20 people interested, I'd be doing something.  It turns out that 42 people were interested!  We had a super time!  I remember packing everything...and I do mean everything that I own...AND my 13 years of pictures that I was going to get caught up...haha!!!  I even packed all of my rubberstamps and inks, because a WHOLE weekend is a very long time, and I didn't want to run out of things to do...haha even louder! 

I have hosted and attended many weekend crops since.  I have 112 people signed up for the Annual President's Day Weekend Crop in February, and I could probably add 20 more if I only had room!

I think I finished 12 pages that first weekend...a far cry from my goal of catching up, but I learned something important.  Scrapbooking isn't just about the photos.  It's about spending time with family and friends and relaxing.  It's also about making new memories and taking more pictures so I'll have something to scrap on my 20th anniversary.

Have a great weekend.

Pam
