I love it, Becky. I remember the days when it was easier putting both little ones in one cart and pulling one along behind with my groceries. LOL

Well, this is such an adorable picture. This is memory in the making. Couple of years down the road this is something the whole family can look back at.

I would love to know the top 10 things you purchase regularly at Costco. It is fun to find new things there and like to know what others are using.

Thanks,

I agree with Kathi, I would love to know what is your top ten things from Costco. It seems like wherever I go and say this taste great or where did you get that - it has come from Costco. So I love to find new things there.

Thanks,
Heather

That's funny! I did think your cart looked a little empty in the last post! We often do the double cart thing at Costco, at least 2 of the kids usually want to ride so that doesn't leave much room for Costco sized groceries!

Bummer....no Costco near where I live. We have Sam's, but I have heard Costco is better. (?)

Question for you Becky....Your Best of Becky's sketches book includes all of your sketches in your first two sketch books and from CK magazine, but up to what issue in CK mag? kwim?
Like what issue starts the sketches that the book doesn't cover?
Thanks!

I love the everyday life idea Becky! I think it's important to document the "norm" for future generations. I have a question for you. I have just been watching the presidential debates and realize that I am watching history in the making. I want to do a 2 page layout showing where I was when...(the planes hit the twin towers, the first black president was elected into office, etc.) so as to show my family that these events were important in my life. Any suggestions?? Thanks so much for your very creative website. I already get a ton of inspiration from you,
Angela

Becky, next week I need to take a hot breakfast dish to my MOPS meeting. I was wondering if you have any fun dishes for breakfast you could share?

Also I would love to hear how you structure your days too!

I agree with Krista...I would LOVE to hear how you structure you days..."A Day in the Life of Becky!!!"

Just wondered when the Christmas cards will ship...can't wait to get them!

Also, Krista...if you go to allrecipes.com there is a great recipe for COUNTRY BREAKFAST CASSEROLE...it's been a hit at our mops group

Thanks Lisa. I took the Nutella Rolls to my steering meeting and they LOVED those so I know Becky dishes are always a tried and true hit. But I will check out allrecipes.com!

It's those everyday photos that are my favorites. Look at the height of clare now & perhaps you will get a similar pic in a few years & be able to compare her height then. I'm quite sure that the boys will be too big to fit together in that car in a few years. oh so quickly things change. Enjoy the everyday & little moments. Cherish them...

Hi Becky,

I just wanted to thank you again for the great work you did on the school kits and the expansion pack. It is such a relief to have those folders for each grade and somewhere to put all that STUFF!!

I finally pulled out my expansion pack last night for a challenge I was doing and I LOVE it too. If you want to see what I did, have a look at my very new blog.

Cute pics and I so remember those days with all my kids in shopping carts and fighting over who was pushing the cart(Ha,Ha). They are all bigger now. 21 Boy,19 Girl,14 Boy,12 Boy. 3 Boys and 1 Girl. I was also wanting to ask about the Holiday Card Kits. I just called and they said these were back ordered(It is November.5th) They could not give me any information on when these would ship. Do you know? I always like to send my cards out on December 1st. Thanks for such a FUN,INSPIRING site!!! I would also like to see a Day In The Life Of Becky that would be NEAT!!! I believe Susan and Krista said it above.....Hugs, Tracie

For lack of finding a better place to post or contact you, I just wanted to say I would LOVE to have your sketches in digital format for digital scrapbooking. Are there any plans to do so?

Hi Becky, I'm new to your site, but not to your products and ideas. I just received the CK email - the KOTM is officially out. You are very blessed to be so creative and offer such beautiful products. I'm catching up in your blog archives... WOW!!!
We have purchased a few of your KOTM's, starting with last year xmas cards. My son is crazy about your school kit, he wants to do a portrait and a hand print every day. Thank you for all you do for us scrappers.

I would love to buy the School Years Kit but I heard that there will not be anymore. Is that true or will there be another chance to buy it?

Thanks people for the lists of FAVORITES AT COSTCO. I am always interested to see if I am missing something that would help my crazy life. Thanks for sharing.

One thing I have found is the uncooked tortillas. Becky uses them in strips to top her taco soup. (See Day 6 of 12 Days of X-mas, Nov 6, 2008). They are great for breakfast burritos, tacos, taco salad, and anything you can put sauted tortilla strips on.

Thanks Costco Fanatics.

I didn't get any instructions either..bummer, but I did watch the video clip over again and found it helpful in assembling the cards.
