So I have been excitedly waiting for my little baby to finish up his 6th grade in Middle School.  Time really does go by fast huh?  For my boys and I it has always and still remains extremely  important  to cherish the small things in life every single day!  There is a quote I saw somewhere that said cherish the small things in life because some day you will realize that they were the BIG things…well something like that.  Lol….I have been told that I look at life through rose colored glasses…yup I do and I am so happy I do!  Guess what my little guy Lucas is a Mini me…so does he!   I even created a layout about our sharing this trait and it is so beautiful!  So why not let me show it to you.....here it goes. 




I have encouraged my boys to take note of the small yet wonderful blessings that come our way every single day….the only difference with me is I choose to document them as well.   Life is beautiful despite the ups and downs!    So remember today take note of the beauty in life even if it is a minuet thing it should be cherished and why not documented too?  Hey I’m sure our future generations will be happy to see and read all about it!  This my friends is why I scrapbook because I want to share the roses I might see along my path in life. 
Have a fantastic day!

LOAD Day 1 -Housekeeping We needed to create a layout with the title "Once Upon a Time". It brought me back to a time post motherhood of the things that made me tick...like reading 3-4 books a week, I have no time to finish even 1 book these days.  I loved this challenge it helped me to see how things have changed including some of my desires as a child.  What where you like "Once Upon a Time"?

Hi everyone!   So just a few days ago I went on a search for boy images I loved then I  happened  to  fall upon Mo’s Digital  Pencil  by Mo Man n ing!   http://www.mosdigitalpencil.com/ . You guys….oh my goodness I was like a kid in a candy store every image I viewed showered me with memories, some happy, some sad and some just so perfect for  life  today .  Yes as I added each of the 144 images  into my wish list it  flooded  my mind  with  projects  for   scrapbooking my old pictures of my son Matthew (now 20) when he was a baby, my own sweet 16 pictures, the vintage pictures my Mom has of my grandma….I literally went on an emotional journey of my life while  sifting through them.   So begins my new love….Mo  Man ning ’ s  images  and  here  is the card I created  using Big Shoes  for my Mom  on  Mother’s Day.   I am so pro...
