Right Now

I am sitting in my scraproom {finally!} listening to Ashley sing her version of the abc's through the baby monitor.  She is such a little character!

And Tony is outside replacing the water pump that runs the well.  It hasn't even been quite 24 hours without water and I'm already starting to get a little crazy.  Washing our hands with bottled water is going to get expensive, fast!

School is out for the summer and the boys are loving our backyard campground, complete with a real fire pit!  They would never come inside if they could get away with it!

LIfe is good, just very busy!  My grandparents celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary in May and I made a 28-page scrapbook album of our extended family.  It was so much fun going through all of the pictures and seeing everyone grow and change over the years.  For about six weeks, that was my scrapping focus.  I won't share all 28 pages here, because that would be a little crazy, but here are a couple of my favorites:

This is the two-page spread of my little family.  I loved working with the Cosmo Cricket Everafter line; it was perfect for this project.

My other favorite page was of my cousins and I growing up together.  There are six of us, all very close in age.  My grandparents did a great job taking lots of pictures of us growing up together.

I'm trying to get back into scrapping and blogging on a daily basis.  I have a few other layouts to share:

 

This one is a direct lift of a layout Scarlet did for the March gallery at Studio Calico. 

 

I love this picture of Nick, and I just wanted to document some of my frustrations as a parent.  He definitely gives me a run for my money! 

 

This is an old picture of Nick and Logan.  I showed it to Logan and he thought it was of Nick and Ashley!  He has a hard time understanding he used to be a baby too! 

 

I wasn't crazy about how my stamping turned out, so I stitched around it.  Much better :)

If Ashley decides to take a decent nap, hopefully I'll have another layout to share tomorrow!
