A little non holiday to share...

So, my sister Patti and I decided not to buy gifts for eachother or our spouses and kiddos this year. We both felt the holidays should not be about the gifts... HOWEVER... her idea of us NOT exchanging gifts was to give the boys all giftcards to Amazon.com, and me an iPod... I think we should NOT exchange gifts more regularly. Now,she probably already had these items when I brought up the no gifts, but being the gracious and generous person she is, she agreed. (Cause she could've said... "No, dummy... I've already shopped for you guys..." But she is not like that. Clearly I am since the thought even crosses my mind...) ANYWAY... (wow, I am so long winded... at least I can cherish that I will never be called "curt"...I think its a weird little word anyway... but, I digress...) Soooooooo.... I was going to make them this for Christmas anyway, but put it off, but after the no-gift gifts, I decided to go ahead and get it to them... If you are Patti stop reading this... it will ruin your NGG (that is No-Gift Gift in case you missed it...) It is one of those Maya Road chipboard books... it gets all big and fat once you have everything in it, so I couldn't even close it. I tied it all up with some cool ribbon though. I did NOT sand the photos... I did however sand all the stickers, the circle journal spots, and such... :) OK, more holidayish stuff soon okay... plus I am going to show you all a lovely little RAK I recieved... it deserves it own post though so... bye for now...
