So we make girlie stuff and get boy things in return, and vice versa. What a brilliant idea

Put me for the girls team in group one please

Your extras are waiting

 

[momx3boys]

This should be fun. Please put me in group 1 for girls.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Gee, Mazda, wonder why you think it's a good idea?

I've noticed that so far it's the boy Moms who have the desire to make girlie things.

Updated to here.

 

[momx3boys]

I've noticed that so far it's the boy Moms who have the desire to make girlie things.

That is funny. I hardly ever use pink, so I thought it would be fun to make some girl stuff.

 

[tiggermei]

This sounds like an interesting change of pace. Sign me up for boys. I love the work of the ladies currently signed up for girls so I am going to be blessed.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Wow, thank you so much for the compliment. That made this day all the better.

I will put you in.

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

HMMM should I join??? And then what side would I pick??

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Yes, and one in one game and the other in a second game.

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

I bought one of those Jinger premade elements and I was thinking of replicating that. Can I do the same thing for both groups, one boy and 1 girl?

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

I don't know what a Jinger is.

As long as the boy is boyish and the girl is girlish, I don't see a problem with the elements being the same in both games.

Mickster did that for the school swap. Just changed up the colors.

LOL!
I didn't buy any but I sure did look at them and think.. I can do that.. or at least try to.. I sketched several of the pre-made layouts..

Sign up me for one of each too... LOL

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

 

[PrincessNancy96]

That one is adorable.. You could definitely do that one both ways...
Good thing you should me..that way I don't do that one! LOL

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

Well if Nan is joining toss my hat in the ring too. 1 of each too please.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

I was joining because you were joining...

I think we can handle 8 elements with school ending soon!!!
If not... we'll be in trouble together...
OK, off for the night.. DH wants to chat about the day tomorrow.. WE have to be about 3 places in 2 different directions...and kids are everywhere... but we will get where we need to go.. we just need our game plan!
