Joshua loves looking at our photo albums. He will often just pull one out and say he's going to, "read scrapbook." (Although he leaves the "s" off of scrapbook...you figure out his pronounciation. LOL). Anyway, caught him "reading" the other day. It always reminds me why I spend a good amount of time and money on our albums when I see him enjoying them so much.

Completed these tonight. I CASEd the first one from a layout Lyn posted on Feeling Scrappy, thanks for the inspiration!! I used Pebbles Inc. products on it. The second one uses Basic Grey and Pebbles Inc. letters. (Sorry about the crooked photo of the second layout.)

A few crafty things

Art journal entries for amillionmemories.com and a potential craft for our MOPS group.

County Fair

Our county fair is REALLY small. So much different than what I grew up going to (LA and Orange County Fairs!). We went on Saturday and it rained on us. It rained on us last year while we were there, too. Here are a few pics of Joshua (Abigail slept in the stroller the whole time).

Some sketches

Here are a few sketches I created for assignments in the sketch class I am taking at Feeling Scrappy (http://www.feelingscrappy.com/). This is the second class I have taken through this site and it has been a lot of fun and I've learned a lot! It's also been a great way to challenge myself to get some scrapping done. I've really had to squeeze scrapping in a few minutes here and there since Abigail's been born but I've been able to get a lot done-partly because of this class! The next class Feeling Scrappy is offering is all about journaling-you should definitely check it out!

Anyway, here are my sketches created from various inspiration items-

Newest layout

Here's a page I just finished. I used a sketch from Getting Sketchy for it. I submitted this one as my entry for Feeling Scrappy's newest monthly contest called "Splish Splash." I feel like I rarely get time to scrap these days! And when I do, it's a few minutes here and there.

Grandma L. came out to visit for a day. Joshua loves to see all of his grandparents and always has fun with them. She brought some goodies for the kids, but also some yummy Korean food goodies for us!! YUM! Thank you!! Joshua actually took the picture of Jeremy, grandma and Abigail-he really loves to take pictures!!

My good friend, Melanie, and her son, Grant, came out for a visit last weekend. (Sorry I am behind on posting!!) It was a blast to see them and really miss seeing them more often. The boys both LOVE cars and got along great (even though Grant kept calling Joshua "Baby Abigail.") LOL They had a lot of fun chasing each other up and down the hall and around the yard. I miss them already!

Haven't had any time to scrap. Joshua's been sick all week and I've just been T.I.R.E.D. Needed to get this challenge completed today. This is the midweek challenge for TSS So you think you can scrap contest. It was quick and fun to do!! Still need to do my full challenge for the week. I am behind on all the challenges I usually complete for this site and Feeling Scrappy!! Yikes!

Who's out there anyhow??

Just wondering who's all been reading about my babies. I don't seem to get many comments any more. I KNOW you are out there!! Yoohoooooo. Leave us a note sometime to say hello. :)

Here are a couple of new pictures. Joshua loves to give Abigail kisses. :) It's so sweet.
