Another Layout.....

Here is the very pink layout I was talking about the other day......

I used some cute Doodlebug paper and a few chip pieces from Bella Blvd.

This is one of my all time fave pictures of Emma when she was little.....it was taken on the front steps of the first house we ever owned in Medicine Hat, Alberta.

She was just turning 2 and was literally ALL SMILES ..... she still is and i just love her to pieces :)))

It's always so fun to look back and remember something from years ago like it was yesterday......dig through your photos - you never know what you might find !!!

TFL ..... Talk soon.

a little bit of Doodlebug

I 've been working on getting some of my own layouts done recently.....

......I've managed to fit one in here and there......

This picture was taken on a road trip we took during Spring Break 2011.....

I used papers from an Easter collection by Doodlebug and added chip shapes and buttons by Bella Blvd.

I love how the 2 collections worked together so well.....

Check back tomorrow for another VERY pink layout of Emma when she was just TWO - yes, that was a LONG time ago :))

TFL ..... Talk soon.

Happy December 1st

Hey there.....Sorry for the break but I'm on a road trip with my kids !!

First we stopped in Seattle to pick up this little guy ..... Marshall was a BIG surprise for Emma and Alex and boy was he happy to meet his new family :))

Then we kept heading on down to Oregon....Emma is auditing a riding clinic in Wilsonville for the weekend.....

.....and all Alex wants to do is snuggle his new little puppy !!

We even got to have lunch with my friend Summer....She just happens to live 5 minutes from where we are staying !!  She took us to the cutest outdoor shopping area and we had such a nice visit......

......and of course took lots of pictures of the AMAZING Christmas decorations too !!

We've had a fabulous time but can't wait to get home and introduce Marshall to Samson :))

Make sure to check back tomorrow as I have some super cute non-holiday layouts to share with you.....

TFL ..... Talk soon.
