hi all :)  i haven't shared pics in a while...so thought i'd add a few!  that was the halloween costume...nascar head-to-toe - LOL!  he's such a little man!  love it (he chose it himself)!  and the others are just from a recent trip to the park!  what a cutie!  and - he had a haircut yesterday and OH MY...it is just the cutest!  seriously - love it :)  we normally go with the 'little boy cut' similar to daddy's hair!  but - i grew it out a little so he could have a BOWL cut - he he!  LOVING it and will try to add some pics of that soon!

    

i also just HAD to post about this cool new kit and concept :)  sweet kimberly at thedigichick emailed me about this...and unfortunately - i got the email too late to participate (my fault - lol)...but i still wanted to show you guys and point you over to the CALL TO ACT kit...which is free...sorta :) Just so i don't get anything wrong...LOL...i'm going to paste the official 'blurb' here for you guys:

Call To Act is a kit created by your favorite designers from all over the community with a common desire to make a change. This kit is being given as a free gift to all scrapbookers that can show that they are taking action to help in their communities. This could be donating canned goods for needful families for Thanksgiving, clothes for those affected by the fires if you live in California, or volunteering your time at evacuation shelters, even being apart of a donation effort put together by your church or child's school for the holidays.  Sometimes contributing monetarily isn’t always feasible. This kit is to encourage you to step up and step out into your community. As they say, give and you shall receive.

·          Upload your receipt, or photo (blur out sensitive information of course) packing boxes, or participating in school donation events or such.

·          Describe what you did to contribute in the credits area

·          TDC Administrators will PM participants with a code to check out with the kit for free.

·          Layouts must be uploaded to The Digichick gallery linked HERE to be eligible.

pretty cool, huh? :)  so - do something to help...and then go get that gorgeous kit!

did you guys know that THANKSGIVING is NEXT WEEK?  lol!  i really thought i had TWO weeks to go...but NO - it's NEXT week!  just thought i'd share that in case anyone else was thinking like me - he he!  MUCH to be done...AND, i'm working on a new release...which will be the Shoppe's last release of the year...so wish me luck, please - LOL!

OMG. I know how you feel about Thanksgiving. My daughter told me that Thanksgiving was next week and I started to correct her when my hubby pointed out that she was correct. Imagine my shock!!!! Especially since that means my 40th birthday is 17 days away!!!!!

Hey there,

I bought the Christmas cards from your store a couple weeks ago.. it finally went through my paypal and bank a couple days ago & i've yet to get a link or anything to my email.. i have all the screenshots of the transactions in my bank account & paypal account and this was my first time purchasing anything from your shop so i don't know how it works.. Sorry for all the run-on sentences & hope to hear from you soon!

Thanks,
Brianna Wynkoop

OMG, he is SUCH a freaking cutie!! I have taken so many pictures of Bray lately too and now you make me wanna go post them, lol. Glad to see all is good but then again I know the behind the scenes is utterly crazy.lol I am doing ANYTHING and EVERYTHING right now to keep from having to go work, hehe.

Well I have been meaning to tell you how inspiring you are. Again, lol. I wasn't getting your newsletters for some reason but I did get this last one with the Halloween kit. Let me just say this SP...you can LOOK at that thing and SEE the weeks that goes into it and I MEAN THAT. My jaw just dropped to the floor and stayed there for 20 minutes, rofl. I am just SO AMAZED with all that goes into your designs, previews, sites, newsletters, you name it. You are one freaking COOL CHICK girl and just wanted to say thanks for the endless kindness and inspiration! :)

Hi
just wanted to take a moment to say how much i like your shoppe and your blog. When i found the princess free download kits i thought i was in heaven. It was the most marvellous way for me to learn about digital scrapbooking. I then of course went and bought some and have to admit that i Have used wild wild love more than any other kit i own ( and that is a lot now) Recently i found your desktops. Downloaded it, put in the pics etc and put it on our puter. My husband is really impressed He thought it was amazing. So thanks. Thanks especially for your beautifl and very generous freebies which really make my day.
