Layouts from retreat

I finally took the time to take some pictures of a few of the layouts I did at the 4 day scrapbook retreat I went to. The pictures are not that great.....still trying to figure out a way to photograph then decent, since my scanner is not 12x12. So any suggestions would be wonderful! My camera is a Nikon D40 if that helps to give tips. Anyway, enjoy! (Also, some of the journaling is not finished yet on some of the pages).

EASTER TIME

Had to share!

As you all know I am a huge supporter of cleft Advocate. They were a savor for me when Jayton was born. Thanks to Oprah's BIG give- the organization was awared $4000.00! I just HAD to share this AWESOME news!! Really warmed my heart to know that the money is going to such a GREAT organization.

should we laugh or cry?!

I have not taken photos of my retreat layouts to share so I thought I would post a few 'cartoons' that are pretty fitting these days......so like my title says "should we laugh or should we cry?"

PICS FROM DISNEYLAND

Home

We are home from sunny CA & Disneyland......however I leave early tomorrow for 4 days of scrapbook camp! YEAH! But, I had to share a quick pic from the trip until I can post and share more. Here is Splash Mountain- the look on the kids faces is priceless........................

Ready or not

I guess I am ready for my upcoming adventure. We are heading to sunny CA on Friday to visit Mickey & his friends. I have the kids packed, I am packed 'in my head', just have to literally shove it all in the luggage. Speaking of which we had to buy all new luggage. The stuff we had was thrashed. I tell you the airlines are not luggage friendly. Jeff & I have taken a few trips the last few years and the luggage has fared well but the cruise did them in. Anyway, I am just waiting for Jeff to have me help him pack, it is inevitable- the plea will come for packing support.

I am also proud to say that I am packed & READY!! for my scrapbook retreat..........hopefully I can cram all my stuff, Cori's stuff & Rene' stuff in my Acadia & still have room to sit.

The only crafty thing I have done the past week is a mini baby album that I made for my friend Matt Johnson who was just blessed with a new baby girl. It all fits inside a Pinecone Press tin container and it has an accordian album for them to put pics of their sweet little girl Seeley.
