I just finished my first layout using digital scrapbooking and it's AMAZING! I will probably never go back to paper scrapbooking again. (No need for paper companies to worry, there are so many other things to make with the cute paper they sell.) It is so easy to use and editing is a breeze. No more boxes of die cuts that were the wrong size or trying to gently peel off that misplaced photo. After a free trial run, I download Scrapbook MAX 2.0. If you go to http://mycomputerismycanvas.blogspot.com/2010/08/digital-scrapbooking-101.html they have a great tutorial to walk you through your first layout. She even tells you where to get your first digital kit for free and just in time for those Halloween photos.

Fall Fun

The kids sure had their fill of Fall fun this weekend. Friday we went to Morton for the Pumpkin Festival. We were able to have a nice visit with Mike's grandparents and the kids had a blast on the rides. We couldn't leave without having some pumpkin ice cream, of course. Saturday was Monticello's Celebrations. Grandma and Grandpa with the Molly were able to join the fun. The kids liked being able to "paint the town" and had fun in the inflatables.

First Day of School

Kayla and Logan both started their first year of public school. I'm not sure who had more of an adjustment, me or them. I wasn't quite ready for Logan to be gone five days a week. It's so cute seeing him get off the big bus. I really would like time to slow down.

What Happened?

Ok, so maybe starting a blog right before summer break wasn't the smartest thing to do for me. Let's just say we were having too much fun. There was the trips to Camp Grandma's, the new city pool, a baptism, wedding and anniversary party. I would like to say that now that school has started things have calmed down and I have all the time in the world. How many mom's out there are now giggling!

Ships Ahoy, Its A Boy!

Hosted a baby shower for my sister-in-law and while it was a few months ago, I had so much fun coming up with the decorations. The theme came easy, they named him after the saint of sailors and have a sailboat themed nursery.
