Weekend

-
I just might have spent the entire day at the computer Saturday celebrating (inter)National Scrapping Day. Yes, there really is such a holiday! It was cold and rainy and dreary outside, Camden's baseball game as well as a birthday party we were supposed to attend were canceled so it was kind of the perfect day to spend in front of the computer! I think I just might have enough scrapping supplies to last me until the kids are grown at this point!

I'm kind of looking forward to today. Brian took a personal day to watch the kids while I have an MRI (fun, fun), meet my friends from my old job for lunch, and then I'm going to run some errands (all kid free), including a trip to Kroger who is having triple coupons up to .99 this week. (Can I just interject here that as a child when you dream of married life, being excited about triple coupons never really made it into the dream.)

Camden has a game tonight, and we're on dugout duty again, but it's very possible we'll be rained out again (I'm starting to sound like a broken record here with the rain).

Here are some of the pages I scrapped this weekend. Yes, there are more to come.

Emily Powers: Nature Boy


Lauren Grier: What I Want

Julie Billingsley/Kristin Cronin Barrow: Scoop It Up

Robin Carlton/Manda Bean: Birds and the Bees

Pages look great! I am so jealous. I didn't get to scrap the first time. Hope you have a good kid free day.``

Blogging, Not Blogging

Blogging feels awkward these days. Not blogging feels a bit like abandoning an old friend. In this season of life it doesn't feel necessary to jot down every cute quip (and that's only partially because they don't say nearly as many cute things). The kiddos (even that is strange - can I still call a 12 and 9 year old kiddos?) are more likely to say "don't put that on your blog!" Rory still likes the attention, but Camden is feeling the need for privacy. But they also still love to read my words. Not a week goes by that they don't pull out blog books from previous years and pore over the pictures and words. Rory giggles and retells the stories; Camden quietly takes in the tougher subjects. Here's the truth. I have less to share because life is both busy and unexciting at the same time. I cannot distinguish between what is important to remember and what will be meaningless in 20 years when Camden and Rory are grown with families of thei

Cousins, part 3 (the adult version)

-

So I'm notoriously bad about including adults in the picture when we're all together, and this trip was no exception. Here are the very few that include adults. Becky is always my test subject before the cousin photo shoots. At the baseball game (which was incredibly hot/humid and started nearly an hour late). Kids were pretty wiped out after their naps following the return from camp. (the adult who spent a week at camp might have been tired too) Camden had the camera and took these pictures of me and Becky, Liz, and mom. Lewis/Hale/Derby/Lemons family - you're all caught up!

7/52: Pastel

This week's theme was pastel and there's not a whole lot of pastel in our house, much less with my black-eyed, black-haired Korean gal. However, she gave me about 10 minutes of cooperation in 10 degree weather and we attempted a pastel snow picture. The first one is my official pastel picture, but I included the other attempts because it was pretty darn fun. This is a new face I'm seeing often these days. By the way, she has 3 shirts underneath this dress, a pair of pajama pants and a pair of hot pink sweat pants. LOL
