Make it your treat?

Ditto! How dare work interfere with scrapping...right? :D

the mood board is for inspiration.. have fun with it :)

yep, been there, still doing that ;)

Gotta go back to her gallery! I love that your girls are scrapping!

Funny enough, the girl friends sets that have retired can be worth a lot! We got lucky, and ended up with some Star Wars retired sets in a yard sale box we bought.

My eldest has a lot of the friend's sets as well as technic. She loves building theme parks, model towns, sporting events and holiday resorts. They can be quite complex but take up a lot of room.

My son is into Nexo knights and Star Wars. Being autistic he can get quite fixated. My youngest daughter wanted a lego city police station this year to go with her elves and princesses - she's more eclectic in the different things she likes.

Is she old enough to have her own account? She might enjoy MOC along with you! And earn some spending money for kits of her own!

she's 9 @bestcee. What do the admin think about age for membership?

That's a Laura question! @lmccandless

Yeah! I'm glad she used TLP stuff this time so you can share!!

my little one took journaling notes and wants to do the scrapbook layout with the photos. I'll try persuading her to pick a TLP kit.

Sounds like fun!

This sounds awesome!

That's awesome - did she post it? If you do, I wanna see so tag me so I can leave her some compliments!

the kit she chose is not TLP, it's old one by a retired designer I used to CT for.

no worries, i'm looking forward to seeing her 1st TLP page on her next snow day then :)

I bet having the kids back in school is nice for you.

Whaaaaat!! That's crazy! Where do you live?!!? I'll send some AZ heat and sunshine your way!

I live in middle England

Ohhhh brrrr!!! Your photos are stunning! I'll definitely send you some of my sunshine, you need it!

oh my.. I heard the HP studio tours was closing early so I knew you had to be getting lots of snow. Be safe!

Angela, it snowed quiet a lot last night, but surprisingly for London, the roads were drivable!!! it stopped now, but I got Sarita to get me some good photos!!!!! @cfile usually in London EVERYTHING closes down!!!

Here too!! Makes me so happy!! Such a good day.

we've had one hot day and then it went back to stormy and then blah in terms of temperature - hope your season is less fickle!

We're supposed to get a couple of inches tonight and tomorrow. Not happy about it, but at least I don't have to go anywhere.

I just got my printed one back. So I am right there with you. However, mine are all digital, including the printed labels. I do write a Christmas letter though.

I know right? It's like journaling. A picture says 1000 words, so I'm like done here.

Yes, that's definitely me!

Beads, matchbox cars, a few LEGO pieces (there are even tutorials for small sets: I put a few in my DD's one year so she could build a little Christmas tree and an ornament), a small notepad, a dime, a quarter, small craft supplies so that they could use 2 or 3 day's worth to "make" something. A bookmark or a book. A yo yo, top, or other small toy.

Ticket for a movie night at home. New pen/pencil/crayon.

As hard as the news might feel, at least now you know and like Anne said, steps can be taken to help him overcome it. {{{hugs}}}

As the others have said, it's difficult to take at first, but at least now he will get help and not have to struggle so much! Hugs to you!!

That's a tough one, but I echo what the other ladies have said! *hugs*

I hate the dentist. I hope it was ok for you.

I hate going too, but I managed. I was shaking rather when he finished - adrenaline I think.

They look awesome!!!

I say make the Christmas Presents... after you make them if there is glitter r anything like that, you would have to re clean, so make the Christmas presents first :) Sorta like eating dessert first :) do the enjoyable stuff.. there is always time to clean later !

i would say statistically i clean on about 90+% of the days in the year, christmas stuff can be claimed on a relatively small portion of days so i would always claim them where possible :D

Making Christmas presents!!

sounds like there's competition for desk space at your place! (life clutter like school notes has taken over mine, really needs a clean but i'm glad the laptop takes up less space than all my old paper scrapping stuff #yayfordigi ;) happy scrapping

oh I remember the times when we would have to share not only space but the computer!!! enjoy scrapping!!!<3
