Blog Launch Party

So this afternoon I've been doing lots of blog hopping, and came across this fairly new one! Top Shelf Memories is having their blog launch party right now through May 28, and I'm loving what I'm seeing so far!

Join in on the party a variety of ways to win stuff, too! Please go check it out...I'm feeling inspired and am off to try the sketch challenge now!

Oh no!

Took Garrick to a fun little playdate today, and took my camera, hoping to get some cute shots of him and his friends. Got two pics, and my camera stopped working. Something's up with the shutter, I'm guessing, since it would freeze up completely when it tried to take a pic.

Not good at all when a scrapbooker has to go without a camera. Here's hoping it can be fixed, quickly and cheaply!!

Setting Priorities

I keep thinking to myself that I really must set priorities. I'm easily distracted, and can waste WAY too many hours playing mindless computer games or watching mindless tv shows (although both are extremely entertaining for me!).

I know that I would be far better off spending my free time doing the one thing that is just as enjoyable, but much more productive: scrapbooking! I want to say I'd like to get at least one layout done every week...more if I go to a crop night or retreat. So, I'll make that my goal.

To start off, here's a layout I did last week:

Most definitely not one of my favorite layouts I've ever done, but just look at all those pics! That's 10 more out of the HUGE stack waiting to be done! Yay! :D

So, I'm going to attempt to keep a blog going again. I started a family one when Garrick was born, but that didn't last long. Hopefully I'll keep going on this one a bit longer. :)

My goal here is to share my scrapbook projects, and hopefully inspire others! Please enjoy!
