Helen's Christmas Album

This post is all about Helen's 2012 Christmas album. She completed the whole thing on our retreat!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

She has some great pages and pictures.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We just need to finish up the cover and it will be all set. I like the idea of having an entire album dedicated to one event. Especially if you have lots of pictures.

This gorgeous sailboat came by while we were scrapping.
 I love the name "Wild Hearts."
I still have more pages and photos to post. Watch for them!

Lots of Pages!!

We completed 87 pages at our retreat!
Here are some, but not all.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There are more to come! Helen completed an entire Christmas album and Edith made three mini chipboard albums from her recent cruise. Joanne began scrapping Betsy's wedding and worked on Charlie's album. I need to make more pictures of the rest of the pages so I'll post them soon.

Retreat 2013.......Fun!!

We made it and having a blast!!

Weather is sunny but a little cool.

Our view

 Gay and her friend made these cute glasses for us!!

 Also some delicious nuts!!

Of course we shopped! 

  Also cooked and had some delicious meals.

 Gigi's

 Bahama Bob's for lunch and tee shirts!

 There we met up with Martha and her friends who

 were also having a girl's trip!

No trip would be complete without a quick stop at a resale store!!

The barge is still out there dredging up new sand for the beaches.

 A few minutes by the pool

 Helen removing the battery from the smoke alarm! Finally got it to shut up!

 And, Yes, we did scrap. Next post will include some of our pages!!

We have completed lots of pages so far! 

It's Retreat time again!!

Well, it's that time again when we head off to Orange Beach to scrapbook! This is  our Fourth annual Scrappin' Retreat.  We have had some great times!

This was February 2010, despite what the picture says. It was windy and cold. 

Our 2011 trip was in March. Again we had a great time. The weather was much warmer this time. We always have to make several trips to our favorite scrapbook store.

Our 2012 retreat had a new member, Evelyn!

 We also broke records that year with 158 pages.

Looking forward to a great retreat this year with lots of good food,

 scrappin' and hanging out with the girls!

I plan to post our pages so watch for new posts next week.

We leave on Wednesday and return on Sunday.
