Happy.

I can't wait to see you start! I'm starting my December album early, since our xmas tradition starts after Turkey Day dinner. Thanks, as always, for the inspiration Ali!

Glad to hear you are getting a little R and R too....I believe we are both due about the same time with baby two:) Are you more tired this time around too? Can't wait to start my daily Dec. on Monday:)

I just finished mine today and I can't wait to start it. But just wondering, where can I buy the plastic protector sheet for baseball cards? The ones I saw are bigger and definitely won't fit my dec daily album. Any suggestions?
And yes, "Happy Thanksgiving to you as well and your lovely family!"

wow -- that was one of my favorite books when I was young. ENJOY!

I read A Tree Grows in Brooklyn about a year ago. Such a good book! Enjoy. Nothing like a good book--except maybe a good photo :-)

Loved A Tree Grows In Brooklyn, one of my favs. Happy Thanksgiving.

Doesn't that book amaze you with how little people managed to live with? I read it in September and I just kept looking around at all of my stuff- enjoy your break. Can't wait to start my daily December book on Monday- it is all ready to go! Signed up for Shimelle's class too. Love the holidays!!

I <3 A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. All of Smith's books are very good, but that is one that I reread every few years.

That is an awesome book. I was actually a little depressed when it ended.

I can hardly wait to start the December Daily Album.

Such a great book. I love Betty Smith. She's a great writer.

I am soooo excited, I have my camera ready, my note book and, December starts TOMORROW.......so bring it on !!!!!!

being away from the techie side of things is a nice retreat.

I'm so excited I've finally completed my Journal and it's ready for tomorrow. Phew just in time. I adore it and I know I'm going to treasure it.
Such a lovely idea, just wanted to thank you for the inspiration and ideas.

I too am very excited to start my December Daily Album. I had created one outta paper, but being a digi girl decided to do it digitally instead. I've been working on the layouts and can't wait to see how it ends up once I start putting pictures in it.
Hope you had a great Turkey Day!

Ali I am so looking forward to playing along with you and your 25 days of Christmas album :)

A Tree Grows in Brooklyn is such a wonderful book. It is one of my favorite reads - enjoy!!

My favorite grown up girl book of all time! Check out Ann Likes Red on amazon- that is my favorite little girl book of all time. We read it to my 19 month old and replace her name with Ann.

Ali,
I am reading the same book right now and so far so good!

I re-read A Tree Grows in Brooklyn and I have such a different perspective on it as an adult vs. reading it in childhood. Such a great engrossing story. Hope you enjoy it and your family down time.

Just got back from a trip to nyc and brought along A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. Would love to hear what you think. Glad to hear you had a nice Thanksgiving. Looking forward to your December posts.

Missed you!
Thanks for the link to Shimelle. That will be a fun connections along with a December Daily and NaBloPoMo. It all works together and will help me refine some of my digi skills.

Oh my goodness! Thanks for the reminder! I forgot that Daily December should start on Monday!

Oh, I loved A Tree Grows in Brooklyn! I read it for the first time just a couple years ago (somehow it wasn't ever an assignment in school), and know exactly why it is a classic. Such a beautiful, well-written story.
Hooray for family time! I think we all need a break from the digital/technological world now and then. Hope you had a wonderful weekend! I'm looking forward to the December Daily! :)
