Digi lo's

Here's 2 more digi lo's.  So glad I've been able to scrap some photos I took earlier this month.

Kits from Sweet Shoppe Designs, link is in post below.



Just finished another digi lo

Good thing the forum thats having the online crop I'm participating in is using scraplifts and sketches because I've had NO MOJO lately.  {in traditional or digi scrapping}

Used another free mini kit from Sweet Shoppe Designs, Just A Note by KHartley.  They have free samples for you to try and while your there, check out the kits they have for sale.  I have a whole file folder of their kits that I purchased over the years I've been digital scrapbooking.  Nice to have so you can switch back and forth from traditional to digi whenever you feel like it.

Another digi lo

I finished today.  Our 2nd oldest DGS, Kaleb playing baseball.  {I blocked everyones face}  Go Dodgers.  Was so much fun watching Kaleb and his team play, they improved so much by the end of the season.]]

Fur Baby LO

Here's a lo of our fur baby, who isn't a baby anymore.  Princess Pebbles, our female boxer.  She is such a sweet dog who loves to be petted, hugged, kissed and fed treats.  She will follow her Daddy anywhere and usually does.

Kit from Sweet Shoppe Designs, a freebie.  {link in post below}

New Digital Lo's

I did in the last few days for an online crop I'm participating in this month.  These lo's are for my Project Life 2014, if I ever finish it.  I'm still working on my Project Life 2013.

{And since I've had no mojo with traditional scrapbooking, I decided to do some digi in the hopes that I'll find that mojo and start using all my paper supplies.  I refuse to buy anything new until I've used up my current supply.  Actually, that goes for digi supplies too.}

Supplies are from Sweet Shoppe Designs.





Happy Birthday, Jordan!!

I'm a little late posting this on my blog.  But wishing our oldest DGS a Happy 12th Birthday.  We love you and are really proud of every accomplishment you acheive.  Your smile, laughter and love for your family are awesome to see.  Hope you have fun tonight!

Happy Birthday to our son, Mike!!

We celebrated at his house yesterday and had a wonderful time but he was born on June 1st.

To think our first born child had his 35th birthday today.  I had him about 3 months before I turned 20.  We were filled with excitement when he was born but also scared, since he was our first.  Lots of first:  jaundice, first poop on Dad, first smile, first laugh, first teeth, asthma beginning at the age of 6 months, first steps, first owies, etc.  Each first was definitely a learning experience that helped us know what to do when our 2nd child was born.

Mike is an amazing father to his two sons and I love seeing how her interacts with them whenever they come over.  He has a kind heart, a devilish smile and a wonderful man.  I look forward to celebrating more birthdays with our son.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Mike!
