Charlie Brown Christmas

Tonight was my son’s band concert. The picture on this video isn’t very clear, because they didn’t have all the lights on in the gym, but the sound isn’t too bad. Charlie Brown (and Vince Guaraldi) is the bomb! Here’s a picture of my boy before hand. I think he’s quite handsome. Goofy grin and [...]

Football Hurts!

Whew, what a crazy weekend! On the same day as Kaylee’s party, we also had football to cover for the paper. Which isn’t a chore, by the way, because, hello–Micah is OUR star football player. But crazy…during the first minutes of the game, Micah caught a punt and was helmet-tackled by THREE players from the [...]

Fancy Nancy Popcorn Sticker

We’re getting ready for Kaylee’s birthday party Saturday and she’s having a Fancy Nancy theme. Steven has a full size popcorn machine that we are using, which wouldn’t be complete without paper popcorn bags. We personalized the bags with these stickers. For versatility’s sake, I made this a relatively large file so that I could [...]

It’s Football Time Again

Well, today my daughter turns 20. And I’m trying to get some scrapping done, but my computer is running really slow. I did get this one done (yep, it’s football time again!). This year Micah is playing football, so he is actually in the uniform.  I used the Game On! kit by Penny Springmann over [...]

The Card: Papers are from Anna Aspnes–Something Springy (from here). Template is a recipe template from Digitreats, as is the metal tag. Thanks!

Oh, interesting people…

Yep–I am still working on interesting people layouts. These are layouts for Micah and Steven’s books–so it is only fitting that there is a layout of each of them for each of them. There will be more, as well. I am loving the quotes! Bethany is the best…I can always find what I am looking [...]

Interesting People

I love interesting people–don’t you? I spent the afternoon with a bunch of people my husband works with and knows, and I had forgotten how interesting they are! We don’t spend much time together (in our defense–we do live at least an hour away from most of them), and we have let time get away [...]

Scrapbooking My Menu???

So, one thing that has always helped in my family life is menu planning. I find it tremendously gratifying to know what is for dinner on any given night in a week. Unfortunately, menu planning has kind of fallen by the wayside for me since I went back to work, but I always had my [...]

Jury Duty

Yep, so I got called for jury duty this week. Normally this is something that I am somewhat excited about, but this weekend I have just been tired. I once served on a Federal Grand Jury for two years (I made a rather good friend out of it); it was actually quite entertaining. However, this [...]

Are You Ready for Some

FOOTBALL??? It’s that time again. Fall is (almost) upon us, and football has started. In honor of the season, I am posting my latest layout, which just happens to be a football layout! I should have known that when I had a son, football was inevitable. On the plus side (for me, the nervous mom), [...]
