Part 2

This is the title page - I chose this title because it was my mom's birthday and mother's day.
Enjoy!

Finally a new post, with a project!

Made from a chipboard album I got at Michael's for $1.50! I'm so pumped - just enough for one for each family member! Added a few buttons and other embellies and you have a Mother's day gift!

A Busy Life

Olivia keeps me busy by making messes wherever and whenever so that I can clean up! She is at a stage right now where she likes to take everything (and I mean everything) out of a drawer, cupboard, etc and just throw it!

And here is Ella - keeping me busy by looking after that hair! We used the straightener on it and now it looks like she is 3 going on 9! Not sure if I like the looks of this! Stay 3 forever - it's a fun age.

Now that I am back at work I am VERY busy keeping up with everything! Trying to keep this hectic life somewhat sane!

Happy Spring!

New Layouts

Since I have self proclaimed this a scrapbook blog, it would probably help if I would post layouts. My sister took these family photos of us in the fall - she is not a professional and I am not really sure why she doesn't start this as a business, but that is for another day. We are all huge Johnny Cash fans and this is our ode to him, as we are all wearing Johnny Cash t-shirts. Even Olivia is wearing a Johnny Cash onesie! I trying to finish scrapbooking the many pictures she took of us.
Enjoy!



We had tried doing our family pictures earlier at a little church just out of town, but we had a "tombstone incident", so we did them at an old church on Ave E North.

Kevin and Olivia.

Holy Blog Batman

So excited! I actually have a follower! Does this mean I have to blog more? I will try really hard to make this blog worth following, I promise!! For now here are pictures of my little gals.

All In A Day's Work

So I was cleaning my house and a light bulb went off - since we don't have our 4th level complete which will hopefully one day soon will be a playroom - I decided since we spend most of our day upstairs in the kitchen and living room that I would paint the back of my cupboards with magnetic and chalkboard paint. It was really easy and only took me a day. Hopefully one day soon we will also be getting rid of these cupboards as well (since they are only 30 years old)! This is the before picture:

And this is the after. Please let me know what you think. It is not quite complete. I have to install the rods I purchased from Ikea - one for a roll of paper and the other with containers on it to hold chalk, crayons and what not!
