Slow down

I didn't stop scrapping...just slowed down.  Life got busy and I have lost my inspiration a lot of days.  No time or energy for blogging.  Don't get me wrong, Life is Good!  Just busy.  I think I need to do a big printing job and see my pages in real life to get back my mojo.  Anyway, here is the last month of layouts

Q+A

The annual question and answer pages.  I used Splendid Fiins teen and tween kits.  The girls pages were hard for me, bright colors and doodle stickers--yikes!, but the girls love them!  I love the journaling:)

School Pages

I was a little wary of using these rub-ons. As I don't usually use elements like that. But it inspired me to do this layout with some of the questions he asked about the third grade before he started and I really like it!

She is a funny one.  I went back to my roots with this one.  A little ledger grid anyone?

The title was actually a mistake.  I was going to put 2nd Grade, but then I liked the repeat of the number...so I left it.

New Hampshire

Echo Park is a new designer at JessicaSprague.com and besides just loving that name...their products are pretty good too:)

We went to New Hampshire.  We went to an amusement park, took a tram up the white moutains, swam in the river behind our inn...and all I scrapped was the hammock.

Scrap Time

Do you know what happens when I have no kids and more time to scrap?  I spend waaaay to long on each page...really it is not good.  Here are the products of my kid free time: (one more to come on Wed.)

Baseball is part of New England life.  Seriously people talk about it, wear it, sing it, play it.  Its Everywhere.  None of us are huge fans...but, by necessity we are learning.

Overheard

A conversation I overheard between my kids's friend and her mom.

My kids play with their friends all the time, but I LOVE that they like to play with each other.

Love--I Dare you!

Once upon a time there was a lovely woman named Amanda. She was beautiful, talented, and the whole world rejoiced when she gave her amazing tallents to the digi-kingdom. Then one day she joined more very brave members of the digi-kingdom and started Daring her fellow citizens... and the digi-kingdom was never the same:)

There is a new dare out! Amanda never takes it easy so go see if it...if you DARE!

Summer = Cape Cod

As soon as the weather gets warmer my husband is itching to go to the Cape. We went this last weekend, and I am sure we will go again before the summer is over. I need to because this trip was a little to cold for me:)

you are happy

My kids just got into a magnet school so we will be changing schools in the Fall. We are all a little nervous, but it is the best for the whole family...I think, hope. The hard part is there isn't anything wrong with the current school, when it is two good choices it is a tough decision!

Month

This is for the digi dare this week...you were suppose to compare something. My daughter had a rough month. Working on getting back to the smiley girl is going well,but it has taken a lot longer than I thought. This is the first time she has been afraid of something that really changed her whole attitude. Makes parenting a tough job.
