More LO's for August

Hello everyone I have been busy making more layouts.

I just loved this photo of the kids. They are both getting so big. Unbelievable!!

Journaling reads: You two know how to make your Mom’s day. This was just too cute. I couldn’t resist taking a picture. You both are just adorable Baby Girl you were 4 and Colin you were 10 months old.

I used: Mary Mary Quite Primary by Lisa Majewski available 3Scrapateers, Digiscrapboutiqe and Nuts4Digi

Watch out kids on the loose is just a fun layout that I made using a quickpage. It shows Patrick and McKenzie riding bikes while we were camping. They were having so much fun.


I love how this layout turned out also! It shows the intensity of the children studying a new area. They looked at everything and learned so much.

Ok well enough layouts for now.

I hope everyone is doing well.

We have been battling the normal bugs here. Colin had a stomach bug for about 3 weeks, but he is finally eating regular food again. Yeah!!! McKenzie has a cold but is still going to school and seems to be on the mend. Tim has been working lots of hours so we haven't seen him much :(

Actually he had both kids yesterday and he told me to go find something to do outside the house. He didn't have to ask me twice!! I was out of here. I went to the Barnes and Noble bookstore near our house to read (peace and quiet) Woohoo!! I finished the book I have been trying to read for over a month(sheesh). Anyway I needed the next one in the series and they didn't have it at the store I was at but they had it at another Barnes and Noble. Well I rode my bike to the one so I hopped back on the bike and went the extra 4 miles to the other store. So all in all I rode about 10 miles. I'm so glad that I love to ride. It felt good to ride without pulling an extra 60 pounds behind me too.

Ok well enough babbling. Hope everyone has a great week!

Love to all

August is here

I know that I have already posted once this month, but I think it just hit me today that it is the last month of summer. I'm so bummed!! I love summer. I have been doing so much better now that I can get outside and enjoy the sunshine. Eventhough, I was raised in Wyoming and the cold didn't bother me when I was young, now the cold is horrible. Oh well, I will enjoy what we have left of the sunshine and warm weather.

I did make a desktop calender for my computer screen for the month of August. I actually did this on July 31st at about 11:30 at night. I was determined to have it on the computer when I woke up on the 1st. These are pictures from a Scrapbooking retreat that my sister, Connie and I went to up in Eden, Utah. Beautiful area!! I will be going back up this fall just to take pictures. Just imagine all of these trees with the fall leaves! Wow!!

I cheated making this one. It was a quick page that all I needed to do was add the photos, but it fit perfectly!!This one turned out sooooo cute!! I love this kit for one. It is one of Patty's first kits that she made. It is named Baby Colin after our son of course...I love all the beautiful blues and embellishments in this kit.

Go check out her store. You will be amazed at what you see there. The link for the complete store is on my blog.
The template was provided by MrsLids at ScrapOutsideTheBox. Awesome lady with an amazing talent.

Crawling 101 is a 2 page layout for the Twice as Fast challenge also at SOTB.
This beautiful template is by Brandi White.
I used a Thank You Collaboration kit provided by several designers. It was given to all the Creative Team members. It was a huge, beautiful kit. Amazing work by amazing people. I am so proud of all the people I work with at all the different sites. They named the collaboration "Gratitude". I don't know who should be more grateful. Them for having us work on all of their beautiful kits or US for getting to work on all of their amazing work. Either way, I give a big shout out to all the wonderful designers in the digi world!!


OK, well thanks for reading all of my ramblings again today. Hope everyone is having a great summer. Enjoy!!

Colin Pictures

I promised people that I would put up pictures of Colin crawling. This is the first week!!
He was doing very well for such a little guy. We had went to RC Willey and he had seen another 9 month old baby crawling all over the store. So I guess he decided that he could do it too. We got him home and put him on the floor and there he went. Yeah!!


I couldn't help but put up this photo!! Aren't they just the cutest!!
Here are some other layouts that I did for the month of July.
