Here's another page for my mom's book, I'm trying to get as much done before the 12th which is when my new job will start. I must admit, I'm a little nervous about what will happen to my scrapbooking when that happens! But only time will tell, anyways - back to this page! These are pics of my mom and my stepfather taken in 2003, it was my grandparent's 55th anniversary and a photographer had come out and take some family photos. I'll be back with more tomorrow I'm sure!

For My Mommy!

My mom's 60th birthday is coming up in May and I've been put in charge of making a photo book  - no big surprise there! So today I got started with this page, the upper photo shows my mom with her older brother (she's on the right) and the lower one shows her with the same older brother and her younger sister (my mom is the one on the left). Looking forward to scrapping some more older photos and hope you'll enjoy seeing them! :)

Last March Madness Week!

Now onto a happier note for today, we've made it to the last week of March and I'm going to extend this special into April so that it is good for one whole week (3/29 - 4/3)! Buy my newest kit April Showers and get my Spring Glitter Papers FREE! Visit HERE.

Only in Our Dreams...

I apologize in advance for the seriousness of this post, I was actually debating whether I even wanted to share this page or not. Today is the anniversary of my older brother's death, it's been 8 years - hard to believe. So needless to say, he's been on mind more than usual the past week or so... Easter in general is always a reminder because his death occured over this holiday in 2002. One of the saddest things for me to think about is how my children will never know who their Uncle Jon was and that is what inspired this page:

These are old photos that I took and added my children to. The top one was originally a photo of me when I was younger sitting on my brother's lap, now you see Isabella there. The lower one was a photo of my brother holding his son, now it is Gavin. These images are something that can never be, they are memories which can only be made in their dreams - in my dreams. I actually wanted to do something more with this page but simply creating those images took enough out of me and I just had to stop. But perhaps it is better this way, an unfinished page - an unfinished life... I miss you Jon.

So yes, this pic is going back a little but this kit is the freebie over at Digital Crea this week and as soon as I saw it, I thought of this picture of the kiddos and just had to do page!

Honest Scrap Award!

Alright, I just got tagged with the Honest Scrap Award by Carol! I am now supposed to list ten truths about myself and then pass this along to others! So here we go:

1. I spend way too much time in front of the computer, that one's pretty obvious!
2. I love my children and my family more than anything in the world, another rather obvious one!
3. I'm a horrible housewife, as we speak this house is a mess!
4. I played the clarinet for 11 years (4th grade - 2 years of college), haven't touched one in 5 years though... I sometimes wonder if I would still know how.
5. I've been to Disney World 8 times but haven't been there for 8 years. I've been majorly wanting to go back but I'm super excited that we'll most likely be going to Disneyland this year instead! (Which btw, would be my second trip there!)
6. I am very fortunate to have traveled a lot in my life but I've never left the country (well except into Canadian waters on a houseboat which I don't really count). I would really love to go to Europe, some day.
7. My Starbucks usual is an Iced Venti Quad Vanilla Latte even though I bring home an Unsweetened Passion Tea Lemonade every time I work!
8. My husband never asked me to 'go out' and never asked me to marry him. When questioned on how we got to where we are I respond, "It just happened!" I think that pretty much sums up life in general.
9. I have an addiction to chapstick, I seriously stick it in my bra so that I have it on me at all times.
10. When I was little I remember wanting to change my name when I got older but I must have been crazy, I love my name! I also answer to Mommy, Dee Dee, Dan Dan and D-Rock.

And now, I pass this along to Jenn and Pauline... have fun!
