Whoo hoo. Driving home right now from my first cruise so I have a brand new set of pictures to go through and start Scrapping!! And my DH and DS will be camping. DD is going to get to do practically anything she wants to. Lol

Same here - Thank you, Boy Scouts! Ha!

Too bad I've got a really busy weekend planned, so I won't be able to participate this time. Had so much fun the last couple of years!

YEP! His Tenderfoot campout - first one as an official Boy Scout so my husband is going to tag along. He can go to all of them if he wants but I think he's looking forward to not having to do them anymore. haha

Boy Scouting is so much more fun that Cub Scouts, IMHO. The kids are more mature and I love the way that Boy Scouts is organized to let the kids do most of the work. It's been great experience for my DS.

My DH is an asst. scoutmaster, so he goes on ALL of the camping trips and brings DS along. Which means DD & I have the house to ourselves.

well, I can't get the girls to go anywhere this weekend...so hopefully they'll find things to do and play nicely without fighting! I'm thinking they'll be allowed to do pretty much whatever they want- computer time, tablet, games, whatever! Hopefully my husband will be willing to break up any arguments and make meals!!

excited for a full scrapping weekend (well, aside from Church on Sunday! Hopefully some extra time will be allowed for those speed scraps!) I know from past experiences, i won't be chatting much, but trying to catch up on the scrapping aspect instead!

I might organize a few photos to get them ready!!! Yay! Can't wait until Friday!

that's exactly why I'm glad he's moved up. It was getting too much for him to be around 1st graders. LOL

And that's what I loved about Cub camping though - DH had to go. Neither likes to camp, so it's hard to push them out the door. I love having a weekend with my DD all alone!!! I'll miss a couple chats because we have plans to help at church and go to the Disney store to finish spending her cruise gift cards she didn't use on the boat

Getting so excited! This evening I started making a list of pages I have ideas for and how many pics they are so I can easily find a template on the fly. And made a grocery list so Friday morning I can go buy snacks to keep me full of scrapping energy.

Just a question about the times... These times are set in EST or in EDT? Because I know some regions already have Daylight Saving Time... Or should I focus on GMT?
Anyway, I'm a bit mixed up of when my own speed scrap should start... And since I won't be home while hosting (it's my sister's birthday and she decided to invite everyone for lunch instead of teatime/dinner), I have to know at what time I have to be around to host it!

I wish I was as organized as you! I just finished my spreadsheet though! It's a good idea to make sure meals are taken care of. My family may hear the dreaded YOYO this weekend! They aren't fans of YOYO!

Not sure how many I can get done with my taxi service still being needed this weekend! lol

I'm excited though. I'd be happy to get some pages done--any pages done!
