Hebrews 11:1
I take pictures with my phone or iPad and post them to Instagram, but I am not sure why...Yikes. Don't hate me. Don't get me wrong. I like technology. I argue with hubby that Instagraming/twittering/blogging/texting will help keep me in touch with young technology. In other words, it will keep me from turning into an... Continue Reading →
When I started December Daily this year I was committed to posting every day...man, that is harder than I thought! Some days in December are just ordinary days with little exciting to document... So, for day thirteen I'll show you my layouts so far. I use a digital 8.5 x 11 format, then I can... Continue Reading →
I survived the first week of the kids going back to school! But of course, they didn't get any homework. I suspect next week they will get down to business. Yesterday we went to the Pro Shop and ordered Alex's competitive figure skates and blades. She can hardly wait for them to come in. We... Continue Reading →

Another school year has started. Alex is a big 3rd grader now and has really taken notice to fashion. Oh, I am so in trouble! Above is the layout I did for her first day of school.

This In the Moment is brought to you by Parker Faith and simple joy on a tire swing. Digital scrapbook elements & background paper: Bohemian Summer by Michelle Coleman at littledreamerdesigns.com
I got the idea of "memories of summer" from Ali Edwards except her version is "stories of summer". Yeah, I scrap-lifted the idea. I love her blog. Her layouts are so sophisticated in design. Summertime is the quintessential season for being a kid. Carefree days of running around bare foot, playing in the sprinklers, riding a bike,... Continue Reading →

Glenn had to put a stop to a little boy calling the house for Alex last night. He had been calling for the last 3 days, 2-3 times each day! And, they're only 7 years old. I saw into my future at that moment. Glenn told the boy that 8 p.m. was too late to be calling.... Continue Reading →
Every year when one of my two daughters turn another year older I design a scrapbook layout celebrating them. I like to list their likes and dislikes, such as fav color, fav food, non-fav food, fav tv shows, nickname...just fun things about them. This layout is purely digital except for the hand print of my... Continue Reading →
Too bad the pumpkins got frozen this year. Hard to find a good one that wasn't squishy. Another beautiful day in Colorado. A little story about candy corn and childhood memories.
Ever feel like you are constantly being nickel and dimed for everything? Take my daughters school for instance. I think it should be renamed the School of Nickel and Dimed Academy. It's only October 2nd and already Alex has brought home 2 different fundraisers; there is a monthly fundraiser at a local pizza joint; and... Continue Reading →

All these years of us driving to Texas and never have we stopped to take a look. The girls... Continue Reading →
