Goofing Around

There is no denying it, Ashleigh has inherited her mother's silliness. Maybe she wasn't born with it, but she sure has learned it from me. We spent a few minutes this evening goofing off with the camera. I had her laughing and posing for me. I can be a total ham when a camera is around and I am sure Ashleigh will be doing the same.


Times like these she melts my heart with her laugh and restores my soul with her kisses.

Flowers in the yard

I wanted to share these beautiful pictures of some of the flowers in our yard. David has such a green thumb! I would have killed them long ago.

Father's Day Card

I made this Father's Day card on Friday. I love how it turned out. Definitely works for a biker dude. Thanks Emily for the idea to add the flames. It makes the card!!

My trainer is back

After three weeks Ambry is back. Man can I tell. We went running/jogging/fast walking last night and I gave it all I had. Needless to say, I am feeling it this morning. I ache from the knees down. I will quit whining now but not before mentioning that I went 3 minutes 21 seconds nonstop. I still have a way to go to get to 10 minutes but progress is progress.

I know this is going to sound crazy, but after a workout like last night it strangely makes me feel alive. The sweat pouring down my back, the burning from muscles which are tired and the heavy breathing all remind me that I am a vibrant woman.

Water Title

I was looking though some idea book or something and saw this title for a water page.

JUST ADD WATER

How fitting would that be for any pictures of Ashleigh playing at Hawaiian Falls? She loves that place and can't wait for them to open.

Cropping all Day

So this Friday I am taking a day off of work and cropping all day. I am so excited and wanted to post my goals so I can work on getting them done. Nothing like pressure to keep you motivated.

1. Work on Father's Day cards
2. finish my xmas believe board book
3. do my xmas 2006 & 2007 pages for my xmas book
4. do a Father's Day gift for David (maybe - not quite sure what I might do)
5. work on pages I did not finish at retreat

That is pretty ambitious for me. I will let you know how it goes.

School pages

I found this layout at a online store called Calli & Co. I think it is a great idea to add a little punch to those posed pics.

Awesome title idea

I never would have thought to do this but I most certainly do it now. I just love it!! I just loved the large stitched title. Now I just need to figure out what pics to do it on!
