Hi Fellow Scrappers!  Does your family have a favorite saying…maybe it’s a movie quote…or a phrase from an inside joke. Those sayings make great words for your scrapbooks. Sayings… boy, my family has a bunch of them. I can only think of a few of them, but I know we have/had a zillion of ’em.”

• “Were you born in a barn?” (question asked when someone didn’t shut the entrance door to the house. Usually on Sunday night’s as my Mom & Dad’s. Culprits were usually the grandkids racing out the door to play.)
• “You make a better door than a window!” (asked when someone crossed in front of the TV and blocked their vision.)
• “Live or Die. It’s up to you.” (said by Grandma Pitcher when she transplanted something)
• “Those potatoes are so creamy!” (said to change the subject. Quote from the movie While You Were Sleeping)
• “That must have happened while I was in the mission field!” (of my father’s 9 children, 5 daughters and 2 son’s have served mission’s for our church! )  Said whenever someone brought up a memory you had no idea what they were talking about. It didn’t have to happen during the actual mission, it could be yesterday, but we would always that. It eventually morphed in “Mission Memory! Also funny because they were actually non-mission memories! LOL
• Too many accessories clutter an outfit!” (said when commenting about someone’s outfit or jewelry. Quote from the movie Troop Beverly Hills”)
• “Green means go in Utah!” (said to any driver who doesn’t drive as fast through the intersection as we might have liked.)
• Stupid Announcer Comment! (said when watching sports and the play by play guys makes an absolutely ridiculously statement!)
• Chelle’s Dad says, “Because it’s colder in the mountains than in the spring!” I find this one funny because I’ve never heard him say it.
• Another I remember him saying was “Act, Not React!”

More recently I will say:

• Dude! Really?
• Seriously? That’s what your going with!”

Think about the phrases that you and your family use.  Then scrap about it!   Let me show you what the CT Members created (links to the products are in the caption under the photo):

Melissa N. (KSCroppyChic) shared what she found out after polling her friends and family.”I polled my family on what I say most. Come to find out, it was unanimous among the 4 of them. It’s not so much a saying as a word, so I asked my sister, my mom and 2 best friends and again unanimous. I was struggling with this topic for some reason so I decided to go with a word more than a saying, hope it works. On the other hand, I think I need to find something else to say! Seriously! LOL” Here’s her LO.

Mel N (KSCroppyChic) Mel used Apple of my Eye and Fill-Me-In-Bundle

Hope this post gives you lots of great ideas.
