FUN TIMES......with PersonalScrapper!!





What a week..... I have really been reflecting on my business lately. There have definitely been ups and downs with it! Besides the scrapbooking, my FAVORITE part has been to get to know other scrapbookers all over the world and build friendships through our message board. It is the pen pals of TODAY!

Yesterday I got the chance to meet with 2 PersonalScrapper members (Mel and Lindsey) and their children! We had so much fun even in the short time we were together. After a trip to Burger King, we went to our local park to play. Both of them were driving through on their way to visit family/friends! It was surreal to have our kids playing together after we have watched each other's kids grow up through scrapbook pages!!! Lindsey took pictures of our kiddos. Although we didn't one of the 3 of us at the park, we did with Mel's camera at BK.

For those of you on the message board, you will recognize our 9 children!!

Friday night I scrapbooked with Addie, Dawn and Wendy. We had a great time (wish we would have got a photo of us scrapbooking!) It was fun to see their "process" and to see them using our kits. They have all been long-time PersonalScrapper members!

Last weekend, we went to CKC in Portland. It is a scrapbook show and we attend the night crops to represent Personalscrapper.com. Friday night I worked with Paige and Jenny & Saturday night I worked with Heidi and Carmen. We all had a GREAT time and so much fun meeting new and old members!! Now if we can only get them on the message board! Carly - It was great to see you too :)
There are still lots of members I want to meet - Amy, Sheila, Kelly, Lydia, Janine, Lynette, Emma, Lisa, Wendy, Joni, Kim, Melanie, Karen, Genevieve, Debbie, Barbara, Teresa, Christia, Marisa, Missy, Jessica, April, Star, Angela..... just to name a few (I just rattled some off the top of my head - but I want to meet everyone!!)

OK...I can't find one of your boys in the photos (is the one is the blue hoodie your oldest or middle son?).
Wish I could have been there!

Yeah, Andrew (my oldest was riding his scooter around so he wasn't in most of the photos) but you can see him in the white sweatshirt in the back when Jadyn and Miranda/Merek are teeter tottering! LOL. Cameron is in the blue hoodie. Wish you could have been there too!

Aww so sweet! It was really neat to see them all playing together! It was pretty neat to meet you and Mel fianlly too ;o) Jadyn keeps saying to me "I had fun at park" and when I was editing the pictures of the tire swing he would point to them and say "go faster and faster!"

Addie said...

So fun! I picked out everyone's kids! Ezra looked like he was having a ball! I get to meet Lindsey on Thursday! Some day I'll have to hook up with Mel too!

Great pics Lindsey! Looks like a fun time for everyone! I think we should do a PS reunion sometime, I would LOVE to meet everyone IRL! I vote for someplace warm and sunny LOL!

Carly said...

This is awesome! I had a blast just visiting with you all! We'll need to do it again sometime!

Lynette Jacobs said...

You guys must have had such a lot of fun together. Lindsey these pics are your usual gorgeous photos.

Erica, maybe one day we will meet. Better start saving, but if it happens we will have to organise a crop together so that I can meet a lot of the other ladies too.

Cute pictures of all the kiddo's together! It's so nice that you had a opportunity to meet up & spend some time together!
It's great too that you have been able to meet so many PS members! I was happy to meet you a couple of year's ago at CKC & look forward to seeing you there each year!

Melanie said...
