Scrapbooking the Weekend Away...

I got invited to go up to Lake Geneva, WI this past weekend by my sister in law Erin. She is a Creative Memories demonstrator and three times a year they hold these weekend scrap-a-thons. This was the first time that she was hosting a spot and invited a lot of family. I love to scrapbook but always get to involved in talking to my friends or looking at there old scrapbooks that I never get anything done. There must have been some kind of magic in this conference room that they had us all in ( there were about 50 of us ) because I was so on a roll. I got 8 pages done in the 3 days that I was there, which for me is a miracle. There was so much to do up there. We went shopping in Lake Geneva ate at really good places and I think that I gained about 10 lbs. But on top of that I just had a great time being w/ everyone there. I had known everyone of Erin's seven guests. It was my mom, my sister in law Jenny, her friend Gail. Erin's sister Gin ( I know her very well b/c she used to date my brother way back in the day) her mom and a next door neighbor. So it was a great environment ( I could see the lake from the hotel), great conversation, and great people to be around.
