Sounds like you do great!

We did crop hops to various shops in the area, and had a great dinner somewhere and ended up at my friends LSS till the wee hours scrapping. Monique has since sold her store which closed in 07 and the Sorority has been disbanded.... some scrap some don't.... I miss my girls though. 
 
I probably won't be around for next yr's NSD. My BFF chose to get married on May 7, 2016!

I always get myself a bag of jelly beans.  Unfortunately, since we were gone all day, all I've done is sit here, eat the jelly beans, and read the different challenges.  No scrapping :(

Hosting an at-home crop with my BFFs while playing along with the games and FUN! Our best tradition is starting with a mocha frappucino from Starbucks to get the caffeine boost to make it through the day. Also, pretending to watch the Kentucky Derby at 6:30 or so...gives us a little break.

Re: Speaking of traditions....
don't really have one. my husband goes with his dad and a cousin to Talladega for NASCAR racing, and for a few years now, it's been the same weekend as NSD. So I've always got the kids. Last year I rode with him down to louisiana and stayed with his mom, spent some time with my mom and some friends, and was able to play along with NSD, and then I think make some of the layouts that week when I got back. I haven't scrapped in almost a year now, things have been crazy busy, and no mojo I guess lol. Been busy making memories instead of scrapping my life away I guess lol.

No traditions for NSD.  The nice weather outside distracted me several times today.

participating in challenges is one tradition, the other one is to check the manufacturers blogs - they always have fun online things to share this weekend. I don't go to real crops - well not yet anyways. I prefer online))

Yeah, a little break--the race is only 2 minutes!  DH had all that hoopla on the TV, and I was like, when are they racing?  It went on for hours before the race!  Then, I missed the race!
