Weekend thoughts...
Saturday, June 13, 2009
I was up late last night and early this morning. I spent a bit of time finishing up the final bits and pieces of Cricut Club, watched (ok not really watched...more like listened to) tv, and I cruised the net because that is what I do.
I am about to head out the door to go to the store and meet with some of my most favorite people in the world but I wanted to take a moment and say thanks for the nice comments regarding my layouts. Donna...that is not a hairbrush holding my layouts....it is my new flower frogs that I found in the gift shop at the lodge. And just so you know...we did miss you at the retreat and can't wait for you to come and visit again.
Tomorrow I am going to unplug from the internet and TV and the girl and I are going to paint. Have a great weekend!
A Little Sharing Is Good For The Soul!!!

This is what greeted me when I walked in the door from the scrapbook retreat last weekend...well this, two super grinning kids, a very happy T.H., and a super clean house! I love coming home to my family! (of course the clean house has its perks as well)!
I loved these pictures of Aidan on the Super Slide at the fair. It is the only thing he will go on...he hates all the other rides...(we have tried everything), but he is absolutely content to slide on the super slide for hours on end!!!
When I first started working with these photos I struggled. The colors are so vivid and so not typical for boys. Now that the pages are finished I think they may be my favorite! I love the colors, layout, and photos! I am so glad that A and B are friends and that I was able to capture this moment between them!
A trip down to Otto's Market
My Supah Model daughter
I actually made this page at the last retreat but thought I would share it. I love that my boy treats Lou like a real dog...he walks him on a leash, talks to him, and loves him!
My girl again...always doing cartwheels and flips...she should join the circus (she is a little freaky)!
The cutest girl in the world!
When inspiration begins to diminish Karen and I trade photos and create pages for each other...this is one that she made for me and it is perfect!
The other person I trade photos with is Amber! She is so creative and our styles are totally different! I love to trade with her because I know she will create something fabulous. This layout is from the winter retreat and the one below is from this past weekend. She is awesome!
I know the photos aren't the best but I figured an update with photos was better than no update at all! So there you have it...a snippet of my scrapbook weekend!
I'm Back...from a Scrapbook Retreat!!!

We had a great time at the Palouse Divide Lodge this weekend. There were so many creative ladies from so many different places. I love it when such a diverse group comes together to share their passion for creating! It was absolutely fabulous!!!
I am about to sit down to dinner with the family...but I promise to share some pages soon.
