and i forgot to say...

...look for one of my layouts in the Jan issue of BHG Scrapbooks Etc.. I haven't gotten mine in the mail yet, but I believe it's on page 23.

...also just won a contest I've been competing in since Sept., so that's cool

...also just had four or five projects picked up yesterday for the Holiday Issue of the e-zine Ready, Set, Create (I know she wanted every one I submitted, but I can't remember how many there were-lol)

Overall, the last few days have been excellent, scrapping wise. :-)

It's beginning to look a lot like...

...biscotti baking time.

6 recipes of almond toffee biscotti done (i've decided not to decorate it this year)
2 more recipes of almond toffee mixed up and chilling in the fridge
6 recipes of my new experimental flavor also chilling in the fridge till tomorrow morning

Things are rather crazy here, because all the rooms in our house are still so switched around. That, and running to the bathroom with autumn every fifteen minutes trying to potty train, and I'm getting rather close to losing my mind.

But...there are lights up on the house now, FIL came over and re-hung the shutters, and we've pulled down the "stabucks trees" from the attic. I've started setting up bits and pieces of Christmas decorations here and there where I can find a clear surface.

Family pictures early this morning and being on my feet making biscotti ALL day and I'm ready for bed with at least three hours yet to go.

Visiting the Fair


Just a few pics. We were only there for a couple hours, but it was fun. Matt had a vendor pass (so he could water the mums at their booth) so we had AWESOME parking and got in free.
Autumn got to wear her clothes from Aunt Beth that mommy wants to steal. ;-)
refusing to look at the camera on the carousel--she waved every time around
riding with mommy (who was getting very sick)
