Hi, Ladies!
An email was just sent with crop details for the weekend ... just in case you didn;t get it, here is what it said (minus the layout contest attachment).
WOW! Is the crop just 3 days away!?! We are SO looking forward to cropping with all of you – and surprising you with all sorts of fun, scrappy treats! Here are just a few things to think about as you pack up your scrap stuff this week:
• Bring an extra bag (maybe even a suitcase) to take all your goodies home in. (No, we are not kidding.)
• While we have a number of activities, guest instructor programs and surprises planned, all activities are optional. While we encourage it vehemently, you don’t even have to crop.
• Pack up those unwanted scrap items (maybe in that extra suitcase you’re bringing!) to put on the “swap” table. Take what you want, first come, first served. Anything left will be given to the Children’s Hospital of Orange County (CHOC) for the memory projects the patients do.
• Attached are details about the Crops2Remember “Nothing Compares 2 U” layout contest. The winner of this event will be crowned Queen of the Crop – and be treated like one as she’s showered with prizes!
• We have special guests throughout the weekend, some of them with items for sale. Plus, we have store sponsors who would love for you to drop by, so be sure to bring a little extra pocket money!
• Plan to dress comfortably and in layers. The room temperature will be kept around 72 degrees, but every one has a different tolerance for heat and cold.
• Think you’ll need extra light? Planning to bring your Cricut? You might want to bring a power strip or an extension cord.
• Have you left a comment (or five) on the Crops2Remember blog? For every comment you make, your name will be entered in a special raffle for an item valued at $30. You can be entered and unlimited amount of times, so write away!
• Can’t stand the thought of being away from email too long? No worries! The hotel has complete access to wireless Internet – and it’s FREE!
• Some emails are getting lost in spam filters, so make sure you check the blog often in the next few days for updates and announcements!
And, as always, if you have any questions, feel free to email us! For registration and payment questions, contact Naomi (naomicrops2remember@yahoo.com). For activity and general questions, contact Jessica (jessicacrops2remember@yahoo.com).
See you on Friday!!!!
Jessica, Nan and Naomi

Don't forget to post here!
For every post you, well, post, you'll get your name entered into the Blog raffle for a great prize! So, be sure to post at least once so you have a chance at the prize! But, of course, we encourage more than one post ...

Who wants to swap ribbon?
Hey, all!
I just wanted to get an overall headcount as to how many of your scrapsters to expect for the ribbon swap ... Want to make sure 10 strands (1 yard each) is good. I need some more ribbon, LOL!!!

Hello lovely scrapping ladies :) Less than a month to go and we will be croppin' in the OC in the summer time!!! We met tonight over dinner at Chilli's and got most of the planning done. Second time around is much easier. Whew!
I, Naomi, am going to be on vacation July 12 - 21. Yep, an actual vacation finally. Heading to Florida (no Disney) but to Tampa, the Everglades, Key Largo and Key West and maybe Miami (for a baseball game - my son is a die hard now since his team won the championship game - proud mama talkin').
Then it's time to do some serious packin' and thinkin' about scrappin'. Be on the look out for some emails about the weekend coming to your e box soon. We've got lots of goodies and fun times planned.
Hope you are all having a fun summer and can't wait to catch up with you in August.

Graduations, vacations and babies, oh my!
With everything happening in our personal lives (for me in the past three weeks, that's a preschool graduation, a week-long visit from the in-laws, CKU, an out-of-town hubby, a sick kid, a sick dog, a broken A/C, snakes and rodents in the backyard and a new nephew - I'm now an aunt!), we figured everyone else was just as busy!!! We have four more crop seats we really want to fill, so we are extending the registration deadline until 5 p.m., Tuesday July 10. Just go to www.crops2remember.com and click on Registrtaion for info. Hope to be cropping with you in a month!
