Libby’s Scrapbook Albums
Here's just a quick peek into some of the layouts that went into Libby's albums. It's an interesting look back at her life and my scrapping style. Both are a bit hysterical. She filled up two huge albums with her layouts and it looks like I'm going to need to get some more! I took all… Read more

All it takes is one day
My house was spotless on Saturday. And then I spent Sunday on the couch sick. All it takes is one day of Mommy being sick for it to all fall apart, right? Even my Project Life desk is a mess. I tried to work on it yesterday and gave up after about 10 minutes. I shoved… Read more

It never fails
We had company here all week with lots of extra activities, plans with friends on Friday and then hosted a family party last night. I kept crazy hours all week long and never sat down to relax. And it never fails – after a week like that where I go, go, go – I crash… Read more
