March

Well, March has definitely come in like a lion because I can't stop scrapbooking! February was a total funk, but this month has been pretty crafty so far. I hear from my sister daily and she has been sewing up a storm for Nora and Charlotte so it must be something in our DNA right now! heehee! So I'm eagerly awaiting a box from Rochester with new outfits for St. Patrick's Day for the girls! Can't wait!

Sister



This is my Sister layout of me and my sister. I'm always making scrap pages of another certain set of sisters that I branched out today (branch-family tree..get it!!! lame.).

I will add journal ling at some point, probably how I used to follow my sister everywhere and wanted to be in the thick of whatever she was doing. I need a funny story though, so I'm still thinking.

I finished another page of Nora, but I can't seem to get a good picture of it, so I will wait for Craig to take one later and I will upload it then.

Stinkin' cuties!


Yikes! Remember when Nora and Charlotte were this big! Ah, such itty bitty cuties! So I'm going back in time to finally scrap these pictures. I think they might be the first baby pictures I've scrapped of Charlotte.

After Charlotte was born , I started scrapbooking. I thought I had to start at the beginning with Nora's pics, so Charlotte's baby pics have been sadly neglected. But not anymore. I've got some more baby pics lined up and will continue scrapping some oldies (at 3yr old) this week!

What a difference a warm day makes....

So here we are on Friday enjoying 70 degree weather. Weird. All of our snow is gone and the tanks and skirts are back on.
So we have a beautiful spring day to frolic and enjoy our homemade chocolate hazelnut biscotti. I had to get a close up of the pretty details on the skirt my talented sister made for Nora. Those hearts are too precious!



So we should have close to 80 this weekend so I will have to plan some good photo shoots. The ground is very wet as you can imagine, but we'll figure something out. I desaturated the heck out of this shot of Nora because the orange tank was very intense. Check out first photo. Craig's not a fan of tinkering with the saturation, but sometimes it's cool to cool your photos!

Help...I've landed on birthday planet and they won't let me leave!


Somebody come find me when the birthday season ends.
Oh, it doesn't end?
I'm going to have my every weekend taken up with birthday parties for new four and five year olds?
I'm going to spend my precious hours the girls are in school trolling down toy aisles searching for that elusive gift that the birthday recipient won't throw over their shoulder in boredom?
BRING IT!
