Long time, no post!

Ok, so I have pretty much neglected this blog for the last couple months - sorry about that!  I have continued to scrapbook with the month kits from the Scrap-Room.  I will share some of my favorite layouts that I created with the last few kits -  

     

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ok - I promise to not get so far behind again! 

Lots of Layouts to share

I've been busy scrapbooking with my kits from the Scrap-Room.com

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   

Back to School

Emma and Owen had their first day of School on August 21st.  Emma is in 2nd grade and Owen is in Kindergarten.

 

 

Yesterday, Audrey finally started preschool!  She was so excited and ready to go.

   

 

 

 

 

I't GREAT to be EIGHT!

    

Emma celebrated her 8th Birthday last Friday!

I made a double chocolate birthday cake for her - it was good to put some of my cake decorating skills to use.  (I took two Wilton cake decorating classes this summer.)

 

 

 

   

Lily's First Birthday

I want to share some photos of little Lily on her first birthday.  It is amazing at how fast she has become such a little toddler!  I made her ladybug birthday cake using this Wilton pan.  She really enjoyed her cake too...

 

I'm ONE! 

 

Some more layouts to share

These were all made with the August Scrap-Room kit. 

I know that I have a LOT to catch up on - I hope to start updating this blog more regularly now that the kids are back to school and we are getting into more of a routine.

Some recent layouts to share

I have been busy - and haven't forgot about my blog.  I hope to get better at updating it this month!  Here are some recent layouts (mostly using the June and July Scrap-Room kit)

Look who's walking!

Lily is started taking single steps last month - and now at 10 months old she is taking off and take 7+ steps in a row before she plops down.  What you can't see from the photos is the cute giggling sound that she makes when she is walking, Heeeeeee, heeeeee...  It is so cute - she is so proud of herself!

Here is another photo that just melts my heart -

The school year is officially over this year.  Emma finished 1st grade today - and Owen had his last day of preschool last Friday. 

 

I am teaching an online class!

This is the first week of my online class that I am teaching at the Scrap-Room.  If you are interested, there is more information here.  I am really happy with the layouts and cards that I have created for this class.

  Here is the finished layout that is shown in the peek above.

Look at how little Miss Lily was! 

She is really trying to grow up as fast as she can - including crawling and now trying to walk at only 9 months old!  She really has no fear and will try to take steps already. 

Here are some of my favorite photos of her from last weekend.

Have a great weekend!
