Two Page Birthday Layout - "Another Birthday"

We've officially been in our new home a full year! How exciting!!! Time has flown by, but we're loving this new chapter of our life called empty nesting. Sometimes it's a little lonely, but I'm not home that much to really think about it or get lonely.

This celebration is the first one in our new home! We had only moved in a few weeks prior, but we managed to celebrate my sweet hubby in the midst of it all.

 These are my favorite humans right here! We even rocked the group selfie with my oldest creeping on me! I sure do love them all! There are so many families who struggle to get along, but most of the time we enjoy being together. We're so blessed to be in close proximity, too.

I'm loving the polka dot with the little green plaid banners. I used a border punch along the edge, cut some plaid banners to match the photo matts and topped it off with an adorable deer paper clip. I am slightly obsessed with antlers right now. I used my Cricut to write the journaling! It's so much neater than my own. I will continue to throw in some of my own handwriting in all my scrapbooks, though. It's easier, and it makes it more personal. Some day, when I'm gone, they will appreciate seeing my scribbly writing, just as I do my Mom's writing, now that she is gone.

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!! 

Two Page Scrapbook layout - "Just Hanging Out"

It's that time of year for spring cleaning and window washing. I may need to hire my son to wash ours!

Our company hires college age kids of employees during their summer breaks to help them earn money for their education. It was a great opportunity for both of my boys!! Good money and lots of fun. This is my youngest son rappelling down the building washing windows. He loved it! His Momma was a little freaked out watching him, though.

 The paper from Glitz Design reminded me of water running down the windows and pulled out the color of his shoes and his tee shirt. The arrow embellies signal the motion of swinging down and across the wall of windows. I was kind of proud of myself on this one! <me patting myself on the back>

I added a pop of orange with a few chipboard embellishments and a mustache paperclip...so appropriate for my bearded boy. He's obsessed with his facial hair!

Thanks for stopping by my blog today!! Stop back again soon.
