[PrincessNancy96]

Tell me about it.... I think it's time for us to kick open the box lid and stretch our imaginations for a while!!!!

Well, I have some not used in a file but I use my swaps up because I do Make a Wish books for families through my husband's children's foundation. Swap items make those books go together quickly and everything is very decorative for them--the kids love the albums.

I have the pictures of pretty much every swap I ever did....had to go look on an old computer for some of these files!! LOL (again, I'm not getting anything done!! I needed a break though)

We do Make A Wish books w/ one of our swapper's whose son was a Make A Wish child.. we do it in honor of him every year... (sign ups will be later in the year).. I bet the swaps would make them easy to put together...

I'm still fighting with a LO currently.... can't find that boy swim doll I made a year ago to add to the page...

Stretching is always a good thing!!

Thanks for the compliments....back to the craft room for me cuz I keep joining swaps and chatting on messageboards but you all are gonna me mad at me if I don't get my groups completed!! LOL

How does that swap work? Sounds like something I'd *need* to join.

Good luck finding your swimmer boy!!

One more thing kinda off topic-why are some of my pictures always huge and some normal and sometimes they are so small I can't see them--all resized on photobucket the same way???? I can never get it right....this technology stuff is beyond me sometimes!!

Oh you will fit right in with all of us who end up cutting it down to the wire to finish our swaps!!!

That swimmer boy is missing.. I've gone through every place I had him... I just saw the dumb thing...

I will post a link to last year's swap so you can see how she hosts it... We do completed pages where all the MAW families have to do is add their photos... They have been AMAZING in the past!!

[PrincessNancy96]

Yay!! We are going to have a good little swap here in August!!

Had 2 tornado sirens going off in a 5 minute time period.... it's quiet now... but rumor has it, funnel clouds just south of us..and a report of a possible tornado less than a 4 minute drive from us..... but have no confirmation yet... we just had rain..no wind, no swirly clouds, just a nice little downpour!

Stay safe, mother nature is pretty cranky this year.

Glad you escaped the madness!! We have warnings across the tv screen. I don't think anything will come out of it though...we are too high in the mountains. The storms seem to lose momentum when they hit that big mountain!!

Yes, she is.... I'd prefer to have sunshine and a nice breeze.. wonder who I need to make play nice with Mother Nature to get this?

I need to go upstairs and start my list of possible groups for this swap... I'm wondering with the amount of interest if maybe we should open the sign ups end of July to give plenty of time for creativity?? My mind is just racing with thoughts.... so many thoughts... this could be scary!

WE are flat land.... but with the way our basement is giving us fits right now... the misses are fine by me... we are getting our sump pump next week.... so, currently I have a guardian angel watching over us because the rain has been minimal since we figured out what the solution to our problem is...

Here's to hoping that angel stays with you til you have things all taken care of!!
