Gobble, Gobble, Gobble

This is my Thanksgiving craft for the year! It's made out of wood and thus quite an accomplishment for me. :) My sweet husband helped me put it all together once I'd painted it. My sons chose the googly eyes instead of painted ones and I think they're adorable! :)

Holilday Cards!!

I am in a bit of shock that Thanksgiving is NEXT week!! It just doesn't feel like the "Holiday's" yet! Perhaps once all the radio stations start playing Christmas music 24/7, there are Christmas lights everywhere you look, and the stores are all filled with crazy shoppers it will though. We'll see. :) Last night I got a chance to make a couple of Christmas cards and I just HAD to share them. Thanks so much for checking my blog and leaving comments. :)

Buddies

My little twins are such buddies and I just love it! Ever since I was little I have been intrigued by twins. (I read all the Sweet Valley Twins books!) I always thought it would have been cool to be a twin or to have twins. When we found out we were expecting twins I was soooo excited! I always think it's interesting when people make comments about twins like "I'm glad it's you and not me!" I think to myself, me too! Or comments like, "Double the trouble huh?" Well I guess so but my husband and I have always said, "But Triple the Fun!" It is so much fun to see two siblings at the exact same age! My boys are not identical but do share a lot of similarities. Both are very active little 3 year olds and they like a lot of the same things (like Scooby Doo which they are currently watching). One prefers milk though, while the other could live on water. One would live in a diaper 24/7 if we'd let him while the other hates to be 'naked' (just in a diaper). They are such buddies and play really well together. They have a special bond. I hope they are always best friends!

* I made two copies of this layout so that each of them can have a copy in their album. :)

Edited to add that I got the layout idea from a sketch in Scrapbooks Etc. magazine. :)

My Baby Chick

Ok, so this isn't my favorite layout of all time but I would have to say that I do think this little gal is just about as adorable as they come! Belle was so cute in her little costume and didn't seem to mind all the extra padding. All four of my little kiddos were so stinkin' cute this Halloween and they all had such a fun time. Fun times!!

Family & Isaac

I snuck in a little scrappy time this weekend and got 2 layouts completed. Boy does that feel good! Both of them were completed using patterned paper I'd gotten from friends (Chris & Michelle). Thanks gals! The layout of our family uses a photo taken at my brother's wedding this last August. What a good looking crew huh? ;) The layout of my son has journaling strips with questions and answers he provided...Mostly his current favorites... just things I'll want to make sure we all remember in the years to come. And boy isn't he a cutie pie!! :)
