Pick me, pick me! Can I be first?? I have the journal boxes almost all cut out and the design for my tag finished. I just need to make them!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Mickster, are you being the teacher's pet again?? Huh? Huh?

I have my ideas on paper.. and have supplies ready..and have my cut outs... and....I just need some down time to get things cut out.. but first.. I have to make a batch of cookies for DD to take to school tomorrow.. they are celebrating Pi day (tomorrow, I know a day late..but her teacher was in a conference all day after she had given the assignment out so she bumped it back a day so she could take part in the "cookie" fest!) You should see her cut little poster made about Pi! And we cut all the letters out with my Cricut! Love that little machine.. it whips out great little titles that are very neat and tidy! LOL

 

[tiggermei]

Bought the elements for my tag (and I think for the "other" item -- which I don't know what exactly it is yet) -- now to actually design it. Feeling so little inspiration, but LOVE what I got so we'll work with it.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I am so sorry Mickster. I can't let you be line leader today. Mazda has already finished and MAILED hers out. Even though they went to Mickeyteacher, Mazda gets the extra credit.

Tiggermei, I understand about getting the items before having a clear picture in mind of what I will be doing. Sometimes I have drawings & prototypes and sometimes I totally wing it and just start putting things together. My Adventureland topper'n'tags was a total wing it.

[Mickster]

Phooey. Someday I know I be the Teacher's Pet! I can dream, can't I??

 

[Mickster]

Ok. I've got the journal boxes done. I hope to get the stuff cut for my tags tonight. Maybe I'll be done by tomorrow and they can go in the mail on Monday. Keep those fingers crossed (but only if it doesn't interfere with your ability to finish what you are working on! )

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Yup, have to cross some toes for you.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

I have sketches done.. I did them while I was waiting on DD's band competition tonight!! They got a GOLD rating.. the best they can get! Woo hoo!!! I got some good pictures to scrap..and I love my digital because it records movies too.. Yeah!!

 

[Mickster]

I'm done! Yippee! They will be going to your home on Monday. Thanks for hosting!

 

[rlovew]

I have thought about these and I have some of my embelishments but i have others things to get finished first.

[AlexWyattMommy]

We still have time before the two week check in. No worries rlovew. Finish the ones due first. I need to work on my disney recipe ones when I get home before I do my own swap.

 

[4ltlTinks]

I'm finished with mine...I'll be mailing it Monday or Tuesday!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I'm looking forward to seeing them.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

I bought paper this weekend between basketball games.. YEAH!!! The weekend is a whole other story! But WHAT A BLAST!! AND WHAT A SCRAPBOOKING MOMENT AND PAGES HE WILL HAVE!!!
I have the cutest paper that will make my ideas work great!!
I hope to get these done this next weekend.. because it's our only weekend off for another month or two!!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

So you are going to State!?

 

[PrincessNancy96]

We actually had STATE FINALS this weekend.. We placed 3rd in the state!!! The boys did such a good job!! The parents were all so proud of their composure when we lost our first game.. the coach from the opposing team told the boys he actually dreads playing our boys because we give them a run for their money every time.. Our boys pulled themselves together and came out fighting in the next 2 games!!!
Between the 2nd & 3rd game, 4 of our players left to go play soccer, my ds included.. 2 went south and 2 headed north to play. I made a 30 minute trip in 15! The school we were playing at is in my old stomping grounds so I knew the back roads to take and avoid traffic! LOL DS was only 15 minutes late to the game and was on the soccer field playing before I was even parking the van! LOL I came running in w/ DD and DS and asked where DS was.. they laughed and said on the field already!
We hustled back from soccer to basketball and had time to rest between games!!! It was a GREAT day!!!
It's raining today.. so hopefully soccer will get cancelled and we will have tonight off.. (well, all but shopping for DD some dress shoes for her National Jr. Honor Society induction this week).

 

[Mickster]

Ok. I have 1 sick DS (cough & sore throat), 1 DH at work with the car because I have 1 car in the shop for an inspection. I also have 1 DD at home as usual. So, that means I have to borrow a car to take DS to the doctor. He is in no shape to also go to the post office. I'll mail it all tomorrow. Promise!

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

You don't have to mail to me until the 7th of April. No worries here.
Hope you DS is feeling better!
