Default Okay - so who is not going to the DD Crops?

besides me?
and wish they were
besides me?

should we do something fun?
a challenge or something? I would be happy to contribute a DD Gift Certificate to the winner : )

share your thoughts
I will be in and out tomorrow - Hayden has his first day of AA Hockey tryouts tomorrow and an orthodontist consulation and Madison has rehab for her knee.

I'm not going - I wish I could meet everyone but my Brit bod can't take the heat in August!
How about a page challenge -
How to keep cool in this hot humid weather!...or
Yummy, easy recipes that don't heat up the kitchen!
What I wear in this hot, sultry weather!
More ideas???
I'll also supply a $5 gift certificate (is that too stingy?)

thanks Chris! a $5.00 GC is wonderful and not stingy at all - heck it will buy lots of good things in the DD store.

I think a page challenge is a fabulous idea - to be uploaded by Sunday night. We can decide on a theme and time tomorrow...a virtural sleepover is a perfect concept for our little "Wish we were there" party

We can then use a random generator to pick a winner!

Great idea, Mary--I'd love to be at the crops, but it's not in the cards this year. I'll watch for the challenge assignment!

Like the rest of you, I wish I could be at the crop too! The county I live in fair starts this Saturday, so I'll be super busy. A challenge sounds fun, will try and fit it in.

Allright Katie! Thank you!

Mary, I am sure you are fast asleep right now, but when you get up ( I am already at work mind you in my part of the world lol) - do you want to clarify about the challenge?

What a great idea! Usually I just lurk on the message boards, but I wish I could go as well. They're too far away for this NorthEast girl. And, I just got back from vacation.

I find that so many of the DD challenges help me with my scrapping. I really enjoy seeing how different everyone's pages are from the same challenge.

Boy just being together online for a chat would be fun. Been thinking about it all day. I am really sad about not being able to go to the crops. Wouldn't a Skype ( isn't that how it is spelled) from the crops be fun? Keep this link going Mary.
