Design team reveal

I had to work fast with this kit, as I was on holidays for most of July. I used Echo Park Sweet Summertime, and it was fun to use some of my holiday pictures with it. The last item I used something I have had for a while, it is a big wooden plaque divided into sections, and can be hung on the wall. I decided to use the first day of school pics from 2009. It isn't quite finished yet, but you get the idea.

Peggy's Cove pics

So after we left PEI, we went to Nova Scotia. My fav day was Peggy's Cove. Here are some pics. I just had to touch the ocean. This pic is Derek helping me up from the slippery rocks.

Here is where I put my foot in the ocean, but got more than I bargained for when a big wave came up and got me all the way up to my waist! You can see the surprised look on my face.

The family with the mist and waves all around us. Such a cool place!
My favourite family shot. This is still at Peggy's Cove, you can see the ocean behind us.

More vacation pics

Here are the kids having a blast at Chelton beach, Prince Edward Island. They loved the warm water of the Northumberland Strait.

This is a pic of them at Cavendish beach. This body of water is the Gulf of St Lawrence. freezing cold, but much calmer.

Here we are around a camp fire at the cottage we rented for the week in PEI

The lane to our cottage. Loved the red sand!

Vacation pics

We are back from our three week trip, we had an awesome time. I have a lot of pics to share, so I am going to put them in different posts. This is the beginning of our trip, Canada Day. Canada day is also our anniversary, this year was our 15th. Below is a pic of us near Parliament Hill.

This pic was taken on Sparks Street Mall. It sure was busy down there, the kids loved it!

And I like this pic of my dear sweet hubby.
Here is a four generation pic, myself, my five children, my mom and my grandmother. It was my grandmother's 80th birthday, so glad I was able to be there with her.

New scrapping inspiration!

My girls are in dance, and have their recitals coming up next week. Here they are in full dress, Chelsea all cute in ballet, and Cassaundra too grown up in jazz. Lots of scrapping inspiration for sure!

Friendzy Friday - Two Scrapbook Friends

It's that time of year, when we are planning our summer vacations, whether it be long trips or weekend getaways, or just keeping track of fun summer days. I love the idea of keeping a summer journal to store our pictures and memories. My family is going to the east coast for two weeks in July, so I bought this journal from Two Friends, I love how sturdy it is. I flipped it on it's side, and then I altered it using Fancy Pants 'Family' line. Fun and easy, and will hold our vacation memories for a lifetime!
