12 weeks!

OK, this is the last time I'll refer to his age in "weeks", from now on, I'll keep track of our baby in months :)

But what a stunningly photographic dog!!!

Stampin Up Workshop

Friday night, we all headed over to Kerri W.'s house for a Stampin' Up! Workshop. These are the 2 layouts she had designed for us.

I never would have thought of using green and gold for the colours on a fall page, but with that neutral tan background, it really works amazing with the pictures I just happened to have on hand that have green grass and gold leaves! I really like the "Big Deal" alphabet stamps. I already have the number set and now will probably buy the letters too! That month stamp at the bottom is mine that I bought from Stampin' Up, I LOVE them and use them all the time!
I have been wanting to scrapbook these halloween pictures for a long time, so am happy to have had a layout that fit. I adore Ella in her little ghost costume! And I love seeing me in the wig, I don't dress up very often :)

Special Time with Mom


Nash is thrilled when he gets alone time with Mom! And he LOVES getting his picture taken :)

Big Girl Ella

Had to throw in this picture along with the traditional fence picture. Can't wait to scrapbook it!

First day of Junior Nursery School!

Yay! Nursery School is finally here!!!! Ella was so excited, she felt like a big girl now to be going to school like her brothers. She had a fun time seeing her friends and was so proud of her painting that she did with her own fingers!

Celebrating Marriage

It was nice to scrap a page of Mom & Dad and Corey & Larissa. We had a special party for them back in '06 after C & L got engaged and M & D were celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary. I LOVE that Corey and Dad look so similar in their head tilts :) Gets me everytime I look at!!! LOL! I had no idea they looked so much alike!

Page for Nash

This one I scraplifted from Jen McGuire. Was able to throw it together real quick! I haven't had a lot of Nash's baby pictures out and about, so it's really fun to look back at them and find ones I had forgotten about.

Busy Scrapbooking Weekend!

Love how this one turned out! It's a scraplift from Ali Edwards. Had fun painting the cardstock and drawing the grid lines.

Our baby

As Ella says, "His name is Turbo, he's a basset hound."
He is growing sooo fast! So, we are trying to cherish him when he's small too.

Love, Love, Love




I'm starting to feel time slipping away with the kids. Mason started Grade 3 this year (his 6th year of schooling!), Kindergarten for Nash, and Ella soon begins Jr. Nursery School.


My resolution for the new school year is to enjoy more moments with them, with less rushing around, less nit-picking, and more expressions of love and encouragement.


Just call me Mrs. Sunshine :)
