This month we made Christmas tags, which can be used on presents or given away as a gift!
SWAPS
I placed these lip balm holders in each order (containing Stampin' Up! lip balm I purchased at Convention). I used retired Stampin' Up! rub-ons for the fronts. They were very quick and easy to make!
Here they are individually.
Lastly, here's a cute little project of Debbie's that uses the Stampin' Up! decor elements. Love them!
We turned our November stamp night into a Christmas stamping party! There were eight of us able to get together to stamp, listen to Christmas music and enjoy a few holiday goodies. Ladies, thank you for joining me! Check back tomorrow to see what we stamped.
The first weekend of November, Mom, Deb, Joan and I got together to make Christmas cards for the third year in a row. Eric got caught at work so the kids were with me for the first time. Let's just say that didn't work out too well. I'll definitely have to have a back up plan next year!
Last weekend we had the pleasure of visiting beautiful Bridget and her family. It wasn't the first time we had met in person. They stopped by our tent at the Buddy Walk this year (pictures taken by Melissa). It was, however, the first chance we had to sit, talk and get to know everyone a little better.
We had a wonderful visit. The kids played very well together and mine didn't want to leave when it came time. To read a little more about it and see a couple more pictures, check out Lisa's post. Oh, I can't forget to mention that I received a copy of Gifts 2, signed by Lisa (author of Bridget's Light on page 86)! Thank you so much! I am loving it!
Last week the spouses gathered to officially welcome Dana (pictured left above and center below) as the new President of the Advocates to the 6th District Academy of Osteopathic Medicine! Congratulations Dana!
We ended the month of October with Kaylee's birthday party. It was a combination of family, friends and a few of Kaylee's classmates. Everyone had a wonderful time!
Happy Birthday Kaylee!
I used the Big Shot to make the goodie bags. Only Joan, a dental hygienist, would put toothbrushes in them!
We went to a rockin' birthday party for our friend, Alexa. Since it was close to Halloween, the kids dressed in costumes. Greg went as Batman and Leah went as a doctor (which Greg wore his first Halloween when he was 10 months old).
A Few Highlights
Happy Birthday Alexa!
