Do you think they'll notice?


One thing about scrapbooking the lives of a family with just boys is that there are very few occasions where I get to use pink in my layouts. Pastels in general just don't see much action now that they are beyond the baby years. But every so often I try to sneakin color combos that are indeed a bit more feminine. I'm wondering if they'll even notice on this one? I hope not since I really like it.
It shows what a big kid I am when I get around amusement parks. I mean come on, do you really think the boys are the ones begging to go to these places? Of course it is Mom plotting when we can work in another amusement park adventure on our various trips. Which reminds me, I should start plotting, er planning our trip to FL in January (hmmm..is it time to see Mickey again or maybe try the see what's new at Universal Studios?).

While it has a good beat..


You can't scrapbook to it. I scurried around yesterday, cranking out a lot of my chores in hopes of spending time today in my craft room. I thought I'd try something new: multi tasking. While scrapbooking, I'd pop in the DVD for Season 2 of Entourage. Normally, I just have music on or the background noise of cable TV.


The verdict? Not so good, at least from the crafty side of things. For some bizarre reason, I find this show highly addicting and distracting. So while I made a huge dent in my backlogged DVDs from Blockbuster, I made next to no progress in the scrapbooking department. This photo represents the entire amount of layouts completed during what was to have been my own private scrap-a-thon.


Instead, I had a marathon session of Vince, and his entourage.

I'd still call it a good day indeed....
