Baby M

Took some photos of a cute little boy last week. Here a share of some of them.

More craftiness and photos.......

Its been a while but here we go-



And I began tinkering with Digital - I can share my sources for paper or templates if anyone is interested just e-mail me:



And finally - my photography -





I'll be back in a few months again, lol.

I actually did some scrapbooking.....

Its been a long time, probably the first time this year I have made any layouts. I was motivated by an online crop. I am also going to GA with my sister in a week in a half for a weekend long scrapbook retreat. I have been getting everything ready and think it will be a nice relaxing weekend (minus the long drive).

My pictures are pretty crappy b/c I used my cell phone to take photos of them all. Someday I might retake the photos and update them but for now, this is what you get.

Fast Forward

I figure since I have not blogged in over 4 months this is an appropriate title. I will just include random photos I have access to from the past few months. Maybe I will be better about this thing in the future..... but then maybe not.....

I went to Dahlgreen, VA for a training class for two week. My Aunt flew up over the weekend to hang out in DC with me. Here are some random photos that we took. It was really chilly and I need a better tripod but it was still good practice

Our Christmas Photos:



Halloween:



And lastly - since this is supposed to 'showcase' my creativity - here are some layouts that I have done over the past few months -

Its been a while.....

The last few months have gotten the best of me. Been busier w/work, traveling, Izzy playing soccer, etc and this has been negleted. I will try once again to be better about updating but no promises. I have LOTs of pictures to update but have not done much scrapbooking or other craft stuff in a while. With Christmas coming up, that will pick up since I want to make some gifts for people.

In the mean time, here are some pictures of Izzy from over the weekend when she Trick or Treated at Sea World. She did not want to wear her costume so she just left her soccer stuff on.

She seemed pretty tired most of the day, it was like 90+ degrees out too


decorating a cookie




Trick or Treat


She did not want her picture with these sea creatures


But she did like seeing the Polar Bear and Shamu

Some recent LO's

Here is what I have done since the last batch I shared:

I started this album in november at a retreat I went to. All I was able to do then was put the paper on the first two letters, taking advantage of Izzy actually sleeping on Sunday, I was finally able to finish it! Just need to print some pictures for it.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ISABELLA!

Yesterday was Isabella's birthday, she is growing up so quickly. I dont have many pictures on my work computer but I do have one of her cake that is quite cute. She wanted a scooby doo, little einsteins cake. So I ordered the scooby doo cake from publix and added the little einstein characters for her. She was thrilled.
