Strawberries

This little girl loves to eat strawberries from our very own patch. She knows how to dig around to look for them and will pick her own.  She even attempts to throw the green tops like we do when you are done eating.  If you are not careful she will sneak over there and grab a handful and come back to join in whatever everyone else is doing.  When David picks them into a bowl she almost eats them faster than he can pick them.  So cute.

I have signed up for Instagram and am loving it.  I printed off a bunch of photos recently so I had to scrap them.  This is a 2012 layout....which is so unlike me to scrap anything ultra current.  I used my Studio Calico January kit County Fair and this sketch.

Do you use Instagram? (it is now on Android phones!!!!)  If you do let me know your username so I can follow you!

A quick layout with some My Minds Eye papers I picked up to use with these photos.

Big Cedar

I did this layout last week but I am just now getting around to sharing it.  I used my Studio Calico February kit Daydream Believer.

Swim lessons

Ashley's first swim lessons...which I think helped tremendously with her comfort in the water.  I used my Studio Calico March kit Story Hour and a layout by Becky Williams for inspiration.

Allison Joy

A new layout with my Studio Calico April kit City Lights.  I used this Studio Calico sketch and this layout by Valerie Bishop for inspiration.

Scrapbooking

Finally a layout I can share.... I have been scrapbooking lots, just not stuff that I have wanted to scan to share.  Birthday albums, Ashley's school album, Project life for February, mini album from our San Antonio trip.  All hard to scan.  This layout I did this weekend at Scrapbook Generation's sketch session.  I was done with 2010 scrapping...well at least I thought I was.  NOW I need to dig into all those 2011 photos I have printed.

Hopefully I will have lots of new layouts to share soon... my Studio Calico April kit is calling.
