I have saved every single Christmas list that Miss Mandi has made! I've saved every single letter to Santa and letter from Santa that she has written and received and I decided that it would be fun to do a layout about this years Christmas list! I smile when I think that one day, Mandi might look back at this album and get a kick out of seeing what she wanted at the tender age of 15!
I scanned in her list and then adjusted it because it scanned way light! I then cropped it, matted it and added it to my layout. Once I receive the book back (I'm having these layouts printed into a book form) then I will take a pen and check-off what it is that "Santa" brought her in 2008 from her Christmas List! Ssssh....Mandi is a very lucky girl and I can tell you that she will be very happy come Christmas morning to find that Santa listened to her list!! Of course that is because she has been a "very good girl" this year!! LOL!!

Had fun playing with some brushes on this layout and...SCORE...the "naughty and nice" brush was a freebie!!! Gotta love a freebie!!
I am alone right now and the house is super quiet. Mandi is off at a girlfriend's house for a party and I decided that I needed a break from the hub bub of holiday noise...no music is playing, no television is on..it's just me and my thoughts...yikes, that could be scary!! Hee hee...
I have exactly one hour left to the quiet and then it's off to pick the girl up....the television will fire up and my house will be once again filled with the sounds of a 15 year old girl! Truth be told, I miss those sounds when they are not around...
Until next time,
Blessings!
