A Belated Valentine's Layout


I John 4:16
And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.
Hope to do a few more Valentine themed layouts to celebrate Love.

June Lake, California: Scrap Time






While The Boys went off snowboarding for two days, I hunkered down & had uninterrupted time for scrapbooking. I brought limited supplies, some patterned paper, necessities, and letter stickers. I scrapped a year's worth (8x8's & 8.5x11's), because if anyone knows me, knows I am making the most of my time. I had Luke with me the first day & my ITouch the next for company. I loved that I had a stream of scrapping modes, one idea lead to three pages or a photo led to five more pages. . .back and forth. . .until, the lifts shut down! It was simply heavenly to sit back with hot coffee, watch The Boys leave & head for my spot at the table, and the day unfolded quietly. I do have to touch up quite a few layouts because I did not bring many embellishments, does anyone want to guess my number of layouts? If you ask I will not lie.



43 layouts.















June Lake, California: Snow







Snowboarding & Snow fun! The Boys & I drove to the Sierra's outside of Mammoth area for some downtime. Winter life like this is foreign to me, the beauty and light on the mountains, majestic & I lack the words. I love to see the faces of children in foreign elements like this! First thing on their minds, P-L-A-Y! And so they did. What a photo-op, let me tell you. Definitely need more time to soak in the lifestyle of this kind of weather. 2008, hallelujah!

Ten Layouts & OLW



Sarah visited & we had such a great time, we can never get enough of her.
The boys have been off track at school & I've been able to sit at the table for some scrap fun! I'm trying my best to organize since I'm in the room playing, but somehow organizing & playing don't mix well. I'm on a scraproll, since I don't want to skip a heartbeat I am taking a small stash to the Sierra's. While the boys snowboard, I'll keep the cabin fire burning & scrap, read & relax. Be home midweek!

OLW-Create





The essence of women: to create.
The big deal is that Sarah, my 26 year old baby girl is in town & it's pretty darm wonderful. She completes our family, I have lots of fun photos to scrap this month!
