ideas

I've been looking at lots of blogs lately and getting lots of ideas for albums. Can't wait to get started- do I start with the "He Said, She Said" or "A Day in My Life" or maybe "All About
Me". . . I just don't know. . .
Here's a recent picture of Chloe. She's such a big part of the family.

Sweet!

The other night, we were invited by some friends to go to an Astros game in a suite. Let me tell you, it was sure sweet! I've been to a few games before, and I always enjoyed them. But this was something else! 12 of us had a room with chairs, tables and our own set of bleachers. The food was phenomonal! We even had an ice cream cart come to our suite and we got to choose what kind of sundae we wanted. Unbelievable! We had so much fun!

Oh, the game was great, too.

Ahh, the sweet days of summer. Phil was watering the yard today, and Ethan decided to have a little fun. . . what is it with little boys having to stick their tushies in the spray?

busy, busy, busy day



Whew! What a busy and productive day! I began the day teaching a class at The Scrapbook Village. We made a vacation journal out of envelopes, graph paper, a map and cardstock. We all had a great time! I truly enjoy teaching. The two pics above are the finished product.
Then I got to help with a make and take. My technique was making a layout out of a paper bag. See photo above. It was quick, easy, and only slightly messy (we used paint).
Once I finished up at the Village, I hurried home to pick my darlings up from my mom's. We ate dinner together and watched a dog superhero movie.
Believe it or not, I then mustered up the strength to clean my house! I swept, mopped, scrubbed the bathrooms, and straightened the kitchen. Yowza!
I just LOVE productive days!
