So, yeah, ummmmm....

What happened to "be back soon?" I bet that is what you are asking, right??

I can't believe that I haven't been back since that last drive by post! So sorry about that. It seems as though the end of the year rush and beginning of summer have swept me away. I was tied up with so much stuff the past few weeks. But, it is now officially SUMMER!! Wooo hooo!! I am so thankful to have just my own children here with me all day, go to sleep when I want, and rise when I want (relatively speaking). :) This is my favorite time of year....

I have some Scrappin' Supply Shack layouts to share with you all. I apologize for not getting them up here until now. Heck, I thought I had put them on Flickr this week and come to find out - didn't do that either. Ugh, where has my brain gone?? I hope it returns soon.....with my creativity in tow.

Here are my pages using the new Basic Grey Wisteria line - with some fun Maya Road acrylics and extras!! The purple really challenged me this month, but I am pretty happy with what I came up with.

A page about the things that Bayleigh enjoys at age 8! :)

A page talking about how my little Layne has brought me out of some of my funks. How he can cheer me up no matter what!!
A page documenting the 3 most loathed edible things for me. Ewww and yuck!! The title was inspired by the beautiful chipboard tea cups in the kit. :) Figured I had to get this documented in my book of me, right??
And finally a page documenting how smitten all the men in our family are with their first grandson. Especially great grandpa Wildes. This picture is one of only about 3 I have of him and Layne together. Love it!! And love those acrylic keys and lock in the kit.
I went a little nutso with the scallop border punch on that last one!! hehe But, it was so fun!!

We are enjoying a low key day today. I went to Target after Layne's doctor's appointment this morning and I think I finally found a bathing suit!! WOOO HOOO - it's hard to find something flattering for my after 2 children body. AND it was on clearance. SCORE!!

I promise to be back this weekend with some more updates. *grin*

Until then.....

XO

It all looks awesome! Sometimes we just get swept up and lose track of some things we should do. It happens! Glad you are back!
