I can't believe that it is October!!!

Where does the time go??? Seems like just yesterday we were celebrating that school was out for the summer! NOW....the first 9 weeks of school is almost over, football season for Collin has come and almost gone, Halloween is around the corner, people are talking about plans for Thanksgiving, Christmas decorations have been in the stores for weeks, and now you see/hear all around you a constant countdown with the number of days until Christmas!!! Where has the time gone?


Update with Collin and the contacts...he is still doing a wonderful job putting them in/taking them out. He gets frustrated sometimes in the morning, but after a gentle reminder to slow down, he does ok. He is lucky as he has the daily disposable kind so no cleaning!!!!

I enjoyed a weekend cyber crop at Paper Popsicle this weekend! They had tons of challenges, classes, and prizes! It was great to see everyone over there! Did I mention all of the great deals Melissa had in the store? We are talking Queen & Company brads for $1.50 a package, paper for $.39/sheet, rub-ons for $1.75....Awesome deals...I spent some of my paycheck there!!! I actually taught my first cyber class which was AWESOME!!! I was a little nervous as it has been a while since I have taught, and I have never taught a cyber class! It went great though!!!! Below is a picture of the class I taught on altering notebooks....try it, it is fun and makes great gifts!!!

I actually did a sketch challenge over there also. That is the second layout posted below. It was fun to try a sketch....I have been dying to use that clock and this sketch was perfect for it!!!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend...now who knows the secret to slow the hands of time down????

These are awesome, I love the colors of the LO and the use of the photo negative.

Sorry my friend there is no slowing time. I guess we all will have to just get over it. LOL!

I love the clock layout! Awesome. :)

I'm telling you the time doesn't slow down even as one gets older! I had to laugh when you wrote, that it was October already and it's the 14th!! Girl where have you been for the previous 13 days of October?? Time does FLY! :=)

I am amazed by your dedication to keep scrapping. They are gorgeous, the pages you do. Collin is so big now.
I sold all of my scrapbooking stuff because i have too many hobbies and not enough hours in the day. I enjoy looking at your pages!
