Week in the Life : sharing samples + giveaway
Hoping to have some embellished rectangles to share with you tomorrow. In the meantime I have been getting a bunch of different samples from people participating this week. I love to see the variety and how everyone is making it work for themselves, their story, their photos, their time.
Feel free to keep sending them my way as you get a chance to work on your album/layout/project. See below for today's giveaway.
Also, I answered most questions in the comments section yesterday. If you asked a question check there for your answer.

GREAT Albums!
Today was a FABULOUS day because I was acknowledged for all the hard work that I have been doing for the last few months at work; it showed me that it wasn't all for nothing. My husbands support and love beamed even brighter today when I shared my day with him - thanks babe! LOVE that!!

I get to see my nephew Jackson today. I have seen him in 2 months and he only 3 months old.

Oh, I just love everyone's lo. I saw the one from Karin and said to myself "that looks like dinner in Sweden" I think I'm right. Made me think of our family trip there this summer. Thanks for the memory jogger.
What is good about today??
Trying to get over a virus and am in a play that opens tomorrow. Maybe the forced down time has helped with the lines I don't feel comfortable with.

It was a great day because your book SHARING YOUR STORY arrived at the LSS where I work and I had reserved a copy!

A great thing that happened today was my husband took the kids to school, so I got to read the paper and then workout before going to work. It was wonderful!

The best thing about today was taking the day off and spending with my dad. We walked in the park and talked. We have never done that talked all day. Hugs Grace

My little boy came up to me this afternoon and told me that he loves me. He is only 2, so it came out like "I lub you, Mama.". It just made my day knowing that he doesn't have to be asked to make me feel good...I just love him to pieces!

Lots of good things today. Continuing to work on a fundraiser for my friend Portia who is battling cancer. We continue to be amazed by the outpouring of support and well wishes from our community and beyond thanks Ali!)
Also, thankful for a gorgeous fall day...crisp in the morning and hot in the afternoon. The best time of year!

The best part of my day today was volunteering the entire day at my daughter's elementary school -- straightening kids' hair, fixing their collars and listening to them say "pizza" for school picture day! Loved it! But kept wondering how many people got snapped saying "peeeee" and how many got snapped saying "zaaaaa"! lol. Don't want them to look like they're at the dentist!

The best part of my day was getting a good picture of my son and his dog. I love that dog, but the silly guy runs every time I get the camera out!
Thanks for a chance to win.

I got to sleep in a little bit while my husband took the kids to school... then I treated myself to a massage. It was a good day.

My 4 year old daughter had a GREAT morning today and got ready for school without a lot of nagging. She also had a great time at her first play date at a friend's house without me! I wish all mornings could run so smoothly!

Today is awesome because of the joy of yesterday and the hope of tomorrow. I gave my husband a mini house-shaped album I created of all the work he's done on the house for his birthday yesterday, and he loved it! And tomorrow I'm giving my best friend a mini-album I made for her to track her feelings/cravings/worries/prayers/excitement as she is expecting her first baby in April! The joy of creating and giving is alive and well with me! I would love to put those stamps to use on a new present for a friend who just lost his wife.

Today was such a great day for me. I spent the day refinishing an antique bed I bought for my daughters room. My hands are raw from sanding but it came out better than I could have dreamed. No cooking, cleaning or shopping. Just getting a project done.
Great day!

Today was bittersweet... I found out I am not getting a promotion that would cut 2 hours of commuting out of my day. However, I am SO grateful that in this economic crisis, I still have a job and can care for my family.
