Scrapbooking...

I finally counted my layouts from Friday night and I’ve got 6 more done. Some I like better than others but hey they’re done… I'm still working on Eliza's book...




When I have a bunch of pictures like I did here in this layout below... Mostly pictures of traveling like a couple from Vegas and then the Hoover Dam, I don't want to do a layout for each picture so I make a little book and use a couple of brads to keep them together. Then I slice through the page protector on 3 sides so that it's like a book. That way I can keep the pictures because I do like them but then I don't have to do a bunch of extra layouts...
Joe took some picture of our HUGE icicle that is hanging off of our house. This thing is somewhere between 4 and 5 feet long. It’s crazy... and super thick as well maybe 3 to 4 inches in diameter. The kids are now in bed and it’s so nice and quiet.




Our drain is having issues so Joe put this board here so the water would drip further away from the house... It's been working pretty good!

I love checking out your pages for ideas! Thanks for sharing! I've done a few digital pages today {I posted them on the kids blog}. Wow! That icicle is huge!

AWESOME layouts... you are SO gifted!!!

My bread does NOT turn out like that!!! Seriously. But it tastes good so I still make it. I am going to try your recipe this week once I get my computer back.

Do you find it cost effective to make your own bread? I can get mine at $1 a loaf for Sara Lee Wheat White. So I am thinking it is not for me. Homemade bread tastes better though.

I can make it for about .60 to .75 cents a loaf. I figure I can probably buy if for cheaper when it's a REALLY good deal but it's nice to have freshly made bread and my kids like it much better as does Joe and myself. It's not my favorite thing to do but I only do it once a week and knock out 6 loaves at a time! :)

Great layouts! :) I'm so jealous! I haven't been able to make it to a crop night in forever. It's going to be a priority when I get home!

Yikes! That icicle is gi-nor-mongus!

Your scrapbooks are amazing! Good Job!! When do you find the time? Is it just when you have your girls night outs? or are you good about doing them on your own too? I so stink at the scrapbook thing! You Rock!

That icicle is crazy huge! Holy Cow, great pix!

That's so awesome how much you completed this weekend!! I think my favorite is the first one. I love the colors and how the pictures are slanted. (I don't get to use pink very often)

I love your scrap book pages, some day I will work on scrap books for my kids.

Your layouts are adorable. I wish I wasn't so completely stupid about that stuff. Maybe I'd scrapbook more if I knew how to do it digitally...

I totally admire your scrap booking skills, I don't have the patients. I really just don't like it, but then I see your pages and I wish I liked it.
