Happy Birthday to my sweet heart.

Latest of the Kids

I had fun taking these last Sunday - it all began because I have the perfect spot in my family room to hang something this size. So, my mother suggested pictures of the kids. This is what I came up with. They are all growing so fast!

Digi Scrapping

As most of you know, I love taking picutres and when I get the time, scrapbooking(which very seldom happens). Recently I have discovered digital scrapbooking. The reasons why I like this alternative is because you don't have the mess and you can easily pick up where you left off. I really like working in photoshop and visiting my favorite scrap sites and purchasing digi kits which you can use over and over. I printed my pages by uploading them to Archivers web site and they are all ready to put into a book. I prefer the hands on, personal touch of scrapbooking, but I also enjoy creating on the computer. I have posted one of the layouts I recently finished.

All moved in!!

I hope I never have to move again. What a project. Luckily we had the help of a moving company. We aren't out of every box yet, but pretty darn close. I think we will really like it here, our house feels like home, but the area will definately take some time. It was so much fun to have my Mom up for a visit last week. Together we go a lot accomplished - she helped me with the hanging of pictures and making our house look like a home. The kids couldn't get enough of her and can't wait for the next visitor. I am looking forward to our trip to S.L. next week. We are coming down for about a week so I can see my sister while she is visiting. We are all doing well, just trying to stay cool in this heat.
