Freebie Template

Is it okay to admit I came up with the idea for the design for this template off a shampoo bottle? I even caught myself looking at a package of hotdogs with a template in mind. Who knows, that might be my next freebie. Papers and Alphabets are from Andilynn Designs at  ScrapMatters  I [...]

Family Gathering

Planning a reunion for 100 people and looking at the weather report of record rains can be a pretty stressful event but that is what we were dealing with last week. My family was in charge of the reunion this year and wouldn’t you know it we have been having flood warnings and record rain [...]

Hold My Hand

I love these pictures and what they represent. A father’s protective care over his child. Then there is that moment when the child has listened to his father’s counsel and observed enough of his surroundings to understand the dangers and is able to go out on his own. But, as the last picture shows, many times [...]

For The Beauty Of The Earth

 Friday our family, and my dh’s brother’s family, visiting from out of town, took a little road trip to one of the most beautiful sights you will ever see. This is Mt. Rainier on a clear beautiful day. As we loaded up the cooler and kids we heard thunder, then saw lightening then came the [...]

Here is a layout using my freebie template (see post below). I rotated it to accomodate a great photo my dh took of my kids on a day trip to the Olympic Pennilsula.

It was amazing!

That’s what I have to say about our Fourth of July. We didn’t do anything special but since we live outside of city limits fireworks are still allowed. My oldest son bought the fireworks this year and boy did he have fun, both buying and exploding. This picture was taken by son #2 with son #1’s [...]

Another layout with my first Flip It template

Thought I would share another layout done with my freebie template. I flipped it to get a bit of a different look. This is my baby and now that I have him convinced there are no more babies in Mommy’s big tummy he finally accepts the fact that he will always be Mommy’s baby. I’m [...]
