these 2 are crazy about each other. i just had to scrap it.

it will be fun for her to have this memory to look back on.

my question is...

if they have been together this long,

how much longer will it be before tigger is placed on the shelf?

5 years and counting...

here are my latest pages...

tricia - we miss you!!

this was so long ago, but i finally did it! and that is something to be proud of, considering my life at the moment. i stayed up until midnight so give me some love

because tomorrow i will need it.

finally...

i got the first page in tater tot's scrap book finished (below). lets see if i can get it printed now.

i really need a weekend with no interruptions and distractions

(that's code for children & husband) to just catch up on life -

or maybe a week.

that is what i can ask santa to give me for christmas! but i probably won't get it,

just coal for me this year.

ohhh! isn't she tiny? not anymore!

okay, she never was really small but now at 4 months she weighs 15 pounds! hey chunky, lay off the milk!

WOW!! can you believe it? i have posted sooo much the last few months. tricia would be proud. so in honor of tricia i am posting the latest scrap that features her picture,

well the picture she took of 'small fry'. this picture was taken this summer just before father's day. we had spent the afternoon trying to take all our kids' pictures for a special father's day photo shoot and in the mayhem, tricia,

point... click... shoot, got the perfect picture of 'small fry'.

i titled it 'celebrate all the little moments in your life' to help me remember that the moments that are most precious and most telling are the ones that seem so insignificant and small.

althought this moment was short, it tells sooo much about the girl.

tricia you amaze me with your photography skills - you are quite the photog.

and yes, i know this is the same picture on the sidebar - i just love it that much.

btw, happy birthday, heather!

here we go again. more of the scrapping. if you get tired of this let me know.

i am trying to catch up on several years of back scrapping. this page was to capture 'small fry's' love for her baby sister. she would spend a lot of time giving the baby love while i was pregnant.

and it didn't stop there...

she continues to give lots of love to her sister. what a sweetheart. enjoy.

just want to share some of the fun happening at our home. i have enjoyed digital scrapping and am starting to develop a 'style'. the story behind page one: every friday night we 'campout' in the living room. this includes pillows, blankets, a movie and treats! after watching a movie, we all fall asleep in the living room. i usually sneak off to my bed when the snoring starts. about 3 am the whole family joins me with 'small fry' sleeping on the floor next to my bed until about 7 am when she joins the rest of us in the bed. good times. one thing that makes me smile: when we are all snuggled in the bed together come saturday morning. story for page 2: 'small fry' is just a kick when its tub time. its the best time to catch a big smile. i got out the camera and she put on a show. she makes me happy and brings such joy to our lives.
