Xmas Kitty

It's seems like forever since I done a challenge at Lasting Memories.  I've been way to busy December getting ready for Christmas, girl scouts and sick kid.  But I was able to get a layout done.

Since it was Sebastian's first Christmas with us, we took him to Petsmart to get his picture taken with Santa. I'm not sure if he liked it or not but I do know he did not like the wait in line with all those big dogs.

Liebster Blog

It's an award that you pass on to a a fellow blogger that you like and enjoy reading their posts. The whole point of this is to let someone know that you like their writing, get to know them better, and then pass the torch on to others that you, yourself, like.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory RCS-#17

It's the last challenge of the year at Red Carpet Studio and it is an anything sweet project.  It is open to our layout and card friends.

This week's sponsor is Vampire Craftin - http://www.etsy.com/shop/VampireCraftin.  You should check her out.  She redid my blog, isn't it pretty.

My layout has a story behind it.  This is the one time a picture is not worth a 1,000 words.  My Chinese Water Dragon, Stitch, was out on my kitchen table with me while I was making some gift bags for Christmas gift cards.  He usually just lays in one spot and sometimes he will move a little.  Stitch ran, like the retarded dinosaur that my daughter says, right to the plate of cookies.  I moved it away from him so he won't go on top of the plate.  A few seconds later he did the same thing but I was too slow.  As I moved the plate away, he had grab one of the cookies.  The cookie broke off and he actually ate the small piece in his mouth.  It was the funniest thing I had ever seen.  Don't worry he is just fine, he looked a little hype right after he ate it but is back to his normal mopey self.

I knew right away that this was the sweet challenge layout that I was going to do.  I hope you enjoy.

Hello and welcome to Child's Play Challenges "What's Under the Christmas Tree" Blog Hop!! We're so excited to have you here, and hope you enjoy visiting the Design Team and seeing all the great inspiration they have to share with you!

 Here is what is under my tree..... Build A Bear!!!!!

Almost three years ago, my husband and I surprised my daughter with a build a bear monkey for her birthday.  I decided to pick the name Gigi for that stuffed monkey.  Ever since then, Gigi has done everything and anything with my daughter.  Gigi also have a very extensive wardrobe, I think that monkey and all her other friends have more cloths than me.  What is also sad, that Gigi is also getting some new cloths for Christmas.  That monkey is spoiled.
