the things I will put my boys through

...to find a copy of Simple Scrapbooks. Yesterday, we went all over Edmond to three different stores looking for the latest copy. An hour and a half traveling in the car, getting out of the car, getting back in the car can get old for two little boys. They were good sports but at the end of it all, I still had no copy of it!!! So then I call my sweet husband and begged him to find me a copy. So he went to a couple of book stores and still no luck.

So today, I try at a scrapbook store, just a block down from the Hobby Lobby that I tried yesterday and found it right away! I snatched up two copies and of course, had to explain why I was buying two copies to the wonderful lady in the scrapbook store and she was very happy for me, even though it says I am from Midland, TX and not Edmond, OK. Details, details. I was so ecstatic. I mean, those of you who know me, know that I get pretty excited about things. Over the top excited about things. Jump-on-the-couch-Tom Cruise-style excited about things (although I would never do that in public). This is definitely one of those times. (I do have to point out that I did not actually jump on the couch. They are new and I would never dream of jumping on our new couches. Really, Seth.)

Anyway, thank you to all of you for being excited for me as well. It means a lot to me!

When you are a world famous scrapper, the boys will be proud to say, "Yes, we drove all over Edmond with our Mom looking for the magazine."

I looked at Borders and couldn't find it...if it weren't for Mallory's chicken pox I'd go to more stores today in search of it! I can't wait to see it!
