Winter is coming

Yes, it definitely feels like winter is coming and I'm already tired of it and it hasn't come yet. I asked my husband the other week what he thought about moving to a warmer climate and he just laughed at me. I took that to mean "no". He started a new job just over a month ago and he really likes it, so I don't think I'll be able to convince him to move any time soon. Bummer!

Anyways, on to the good stuff. So what has been up with the Scrapmobile? Well, I was driving home from the Heartland Inn (Thorsby) and all of a sudden the truck quit and so I pulled over and called my husband to come pick me up. Well, this time, the transmission and motor went. Ugh! So anyways, to make a long story short, the Scrapmobile is up and running again and ready to get back on the road. I have lots of great events to attend in the next couple months, so I'm really excited. I'm going to be in Hinton and Viking in November. If any of you are from there, send me an email and I'll pass on your info to the girls. I'm pretty sure both events have room for more attendees.

I am also putting the finishing touches on our first contest. We're being crazy and starting a "Most Embarrassing Layout"contest. Yes, that's right, remember all those first layouts that we did so long ago and we're totally embarrassed about? Well, those are the layouts we're looking for. I wanted to do something fun, crazy and stress-free. Once I get it up on the website, I'll put out another notice and then you're more than welcome to upload your layouts and refer it to all your friends. And of course we have lots of prizes, including a We R Memory Keepers Big Bite and some other great stuff from Cosmo Cricket, 3L Adhesives, Prima Marketing and Fire and Ice Designs.

I am also proud to announce that we have added Peter Singleton and Steven Bell from TLC Franchising to our team. Peter and Steven are experts in the franchising area and are looking forward to chatting with people who are interested in purchasing their very own mobile scrapbook store. If you are interested, don't hesitate to call or email us any time.

Well, nothing else new and exciting. I'm really looking forward to going to more retreats this fall plus announce the exciting contest we're organizing. Take care and have a great halloween.
