REORGANIZING

I have been reorganizing my scrap room. I went and bought some storage things, which has helped alot. I went thru all my scrap stuff and wow I didn't realize how much older scrap stuff I still have. It has been hiding under all the newer stuff so i decided to start using some of my older stuff 1st, so I don't feel like it is going to waste... but it is fun to get new stuff. Here is a pic of a 7 drawer storage, I bought at walmart, both of them are full.



Here is a 12x12 3 drawer storage. I put some of my paper in it. I think i will get another one. i put it on my table I like how it is right at my reach...i also got this at walmart.

HELPING A FRIEND

A friend of mine from work got this letter from a family member of hers asking her to do a scrapbook page and mail it back to her.. This letter went out to a bunch of her family members they are giving it to their grandmother as a gift for her birthday. I thought this was a cool way to get all the family involved. My friend doesn't scrap and knew i did so she asked me to put together 2 pages for her. So here is what i came up with.

WHAT A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS

We had a wonderful Christmas.. We went over to my husband's brothers and well we had a great time.. We always do when we all get together.. My mother in-law flew back to NY and we enjoyed her visit. I love my mother in-law she is the best. My brother in-law flys back to NY on Monday.. We will miss them both.. I added a pic of my husband and I, and included a slide show of the pics from Christmas, I have so many more I want to share but didn't know how many to include so if ya have a few mins watch the slide show.

My husband went back to work yesterday and he works the weekend so it has been quite around here without him. The kids and I enjoyed having him home for 16 days while he was on vac. I go back to work 12-31.

I can't wait to scrapbook the pics from Christmas, I wanted to play around with a few ideas today but I folded my scrap table away to make room for our guests to sleep in the spare room so I will have to wait til my house clears out...
