Scrappin'

A few weeks ago, I was lucky to get several REALLY good hours of scrappin' in! Here are some of the things that I made...

(please excuse these poorly lit photos - I promise to do better next time!!)

Our Utah trip:

I had more photos that I thought were great, so rather than create another 2 page layout, I used this handy little insert page. It allowed me to do a little journaling in one block and include 5 more pictures!
Bennett's Birthday and Easter (4/4/10)

You've seen these pictures on this blog before, but here's a little layout with them :)

Oh, and here's my new car...

Valentine's Day cards:

And a relatively old event, Angie's and my trip to Providence:

Here is a little look at the book that I made for Bennett's teacher for the end of school:

I asked each child in the class several questions (and had them write their own answers), then took each child's picture. Here is Bennett's page:
I think that it turned out really cute. We were so blessed to have a WONDERFUL teacher for our 1st grade year!

Finally, I was lucky enough to be asked to teach a scrapbooking class at church. It was so much fun! This is what we made:I was able to teach a few ladies who had NEVER scrapbooked before (gasp!!) a little something, as well as fellowship with some wonderfully talented women. What could be better??

The last thing that I've done is the school's scrapbook. No pictures to show, but I did document the whole '09-'10 year for the elementary school in the past week. The principal sends me items throughout the year, and I put it all together for her. Can you imagine a better job?? School scrapbooker?? It's the best!

Have you been creative lately??

Swimming Fun

We spent a fun afternoon at Gigi and Bubba's pool yesterday! Here are a few pictures that I took - playing with the manual settings a bit for a photography class that I'm taking. Bennett was only willing to pose for pictures if I promised to get in the pool and play a game. I promised...







Brad was a much more willing subject :)

Hope you are having a great summer!! We are!!
