Photobook


I have a photobook on the way! I am sooo excited. That is what I was working on most of the last week. Right now it has been in Groveport for 2 days... what's the holdup? Get it on a truck headed here already!!! Don't you know how crazy I am going waiting for it to get here?
This is one of the layouts I had to make to finish it up. It The picture just cracks me up. Dozer lays down right with them. He is about the most agreeable dogs I have ever seen. I wanted to carry the number theme throughout the layout. Credits: Numb3rs - Sweet Blossom Designs

Keep it spinnin' Momma!

OK, so today is the first day of summer break. I have been working out daily for the past few weeks on the Wii with Wii Fit and My Fitness Coach. The boys had seen me doing a little bit of it on the weekends but had missed most of it because I did it while they were at school. Well... today I had a very enthusiastic audience since it is rainy out. I'll just show you the layout that I did about it now. Pretty cute! Bryce took the pictures for me while I was keeping it spinning for him. Kit used Game on by mlg scraps

I'm working on a project right now, but should be back again soon. Have a great day all!

teacher gifts

Well, the end of the school year has come. I have one that is tickled to death that it is summer break, and the other is so bummed that you would think it was the end of the world!
Here is what the boys took to school today for their teachers. You can read Bryce's pretty well there. For Colin's I used a font called Penmanship Print that I thought was perfect for a Kindergartner. His is a poem that says...
When I first started Kindergarten
I couldn't have felt smaller
But I've been growing, growing-
And not just growing taller!
I've learned to write my name;
I've learned my numbers too.
And there are many other things
That I have learned to do.
Kindergarten is over now
But I am not afraid,
Because of the great foundation
to me that you gave.

Both boys then used my Wacom tablet to sign their own names to it. (That only took about 20 min each to get one that looked halfway decent! Finally I had them put each letter of their name on a different layer and moved them together afterwards. Otherwise we might still be working on it!)
The boys said that both teachers really liked them, and the one even had note cards with her at school and wrote him a thank you note.
