Happy Memorial Day
As I pack up Emily to send her on her school trip to Washington, D.C. tomorrow, it's only fitting that I remember our trip there last summer and this layout from our album. Happy Memorial Day and thank you to all who have served! Read more

Project Life – Week 15
I've gotten almost 4 weeks of Project Life done this week and can't wait to blog them all. The only way I've gotten them done, though, is to go super-super simple.

Yet another weekend recap, Part I
I've been away from my blog so long that I don't even know where to start. I am uncomfortably behind on Project Life and uncomfortably behind on scrapbooking in general. I've been so busy writing and doing other things (LIFE) that I am beginning to feel a bit of panic about what I need to… Read more
