#week in the life


Iam joining in A week in the life by Ali Edwards I have been scrapping for over 10 years now but I have not managed to be able to fallow through on a week in the life. I am way more prepared this year. I have my album and kit ready to go. I am going to be sharing as much as I can on my blog. I finished my December Daley last year and it's one of my favorite family albums. It is so fun to look back and see how last December was so special. I have everything ready to go so lets do this !!

Scrap Booking and Running

I thought it would be fun to share my running layouts. The reason I try to keep a good record of my races is because I picture myself  20 years from now sitting with my grand kids and my kids looking through these books. I picture them saying wow grandma you ran 50 miles. I don't know if they would really believe me if I didn't have proof. 

I have been doing this for about 12 years so it is really cool to look back and see what I wrote and what I was wearing who was with me and my times. These are the  layouts I did for the Hodges 50 miler. 



I love that its all here in one place because when you finish a race the way you feel needs to be recorded soon after because your usually on top of the world feeling great so its a very positive thing for me.

These are 8 by 10 pages. They are fun and easy to work with because there smaller than a 12 by 12. There you go scrap booking and running do go together.

I am really enjoying this right now

Yes, Little baby Jack is 5 months old and I find my heart skipping a beat when I look at him. He has the sweetest soul. I am so glad to be his mommy. Its a win win situation. 

I am so loving this book . Its so good and uplifting and it fits in my diaper bag. I had Isabella and Christopher read it during swimming and they agreed because they had nothing else to do but guess what they really liked it. They both read the entire book and Christopher said he felt it helped him with his writers block. 

The Michele Hill Polka dot Wimsey Scrap booking kit. I got mine a while ago but I had not opened it. I was busy but I started Project life and I used this kit and I loved it. Its go well put together and the colors are lovely . So next month I am subscribing for sure.

Here she is what I have been working on. I have been asking to the universe to help me find my space. Sometimes I feel out of sorts and so here I am arms wide open . Felling grateful but a bit not grounded. ( I think its because I can't run ) but that's OK because I have lots of energy for all my kids.

My Road trip with mom ..Smash Journal continues...

Here are a couple more pages.. I am loving this and having a great time putting together my album. Did you know national scrapbook day is coming up..May 4th and 5th I think. My goal is to be done with my album by Monday. I am spending all day Saturday at scrapbook store finishing up my Smash book and here is a promise I made to myself regarding getting started on my album.. I promised myself not to go on any scrap booking sights until I am done. I am tired of comparing my crafts to others. I like what I make and my kids love looking at my albums and that is good enough for me.. I hope you like my pages too...More to come soon...

Smash Book fun !!






Smashing on a Tuesday... Here are a couple of pages from my Smash book. These are fun and colorful May pages.. I am doing my Birthday pages today.. As soon as they are done I will share them with you all...  I do miss scrapping all these fun memories in a 12 by 12 album...  I loved scrap booking back when I didn't have to work... It was so much fun and after working on these pages I started thinking that the size of the album does not matter. The really cool thing about these smash books is that the expectations you set for yourself are really not there... You just get some cute stuff on a page and go... I hope you have a nice day and well I am off to run...
