The Magic of Disney

My husband and I have always been crazy about Disney.  That has passed on to our oldest Mason.  We decided to take him to Disneyland just over a year ago while he still believed in the magic of it all.  So 30 weeks pregnant, off we went.  Mason loved it, he was completely in awe, overwhelmed, in loved and totally exhausted by the end of our trip.  I don't think he blinked once.  A while ago I saw that patriciajohnson8 over on the cricut forum had done this AMAZING Disney title and so kindly shared it.  Ever since I saw it, I knew I wanted to work it into a layout.  So here it is, the SOUS sketch and my take on it!  I am not sure the colorful letters quite go with the very black, white and red layout, let me know what you think.  I also loved the looks of the glittery letters and mickey and minnie so tried to tie it in the the Disney word as well.  Thanks for looking!

I am so glad I got this layout done!  I have been away camping with my family and visiting and celebrating my little guys first birthday which also means going back to work this week!  I missed out on the sketch over at SOUS so decided to combine the sketch, the theme of red, white and blue as well as this weeks challenge of stars and stripes.  These pictures are of my youngest on Canada Day! Thanks for looking!

Boys Having Fun!

It has been a crazy two weeks!  We had family visiting and I am working on 5 family albums and kids have been sick!  I really wanted to do this weeks sketch over at SOUS since I missed out last week and have only a few short weeks before my maternity leave is over and I have to go back to work...AAHHHH!  I am hoping to still keep up with one layout a week...we'll see!  I had so much fun doing this week's layout because I got to use my monkey's that I got over at myscrapchick.com.  They are so cute and the colors of the papers conveniently complimented the photos I chose.  These are from last week, my two boys and nephew playing around with each other...ok...my baby doesn't really play with the older boys but I had to include him. Here is the sketch and my take on it!  Thanks for stopping by!

I didn't get the sketch done last week over at SOUS because I was busy refreshing CPR and NRP in getting ready to go back to work mid-July so wanted to get this one done as we have company arriving this week.  This was in September of 2009 when we were visiting my parents.
Here is the sketch:

I really loved everything about this sketch and was pleased with how the stitching turned out around the music paper which has words to Old Macdonald Had a Farm. Here is my take on it!

You Stinker!

I didn't think I was going to get this done on time this week.  I am not sure I am entirely happy with it.  I think it is missing something but can't quite figure out what it is.  These pictures are of my 10 month old getting into all the things he isn't supposed to.  I really love how the pictures turned out!

2QT 4WRDZ

What? What does that mean?  I had fun this week doing the button challenge for SOUS!  I used a sketch from May 2010 pagemaps and had this robot paper that I was waiting to use!  I was thinking of names for robots like R2D2 and this was the best I could come up with.  SO...meet 2QT (too cute) and 4WRDZ (for words).

You're going places baby!

This fabulous award was passed on to me by Sandy over at http://detailsbysandy.blogspot.com/  Thank you so much!  I guess I am supposed to think about where I am going to be in 10 years and pass this on to 10 other fabulous people.  Hmmm...where am I going to be in 10 years...I think things will probably be status quo (not very exciting for some I know).  Both my boys will be in school and thriving I hope.  I will probably still be working in the NICU and hopefully teaching by then!  I would love the do more travelling and let my boys experience other parts of this world! Since I am relatively new to having a blog, I don't really know 10 other bloggers so, I am passing this along to 7 other fabulous scrapbookers who are very talented and whose blogs I like to check out!  I don't really know any of these ladies so hope they don't mind that they are getting this award from a stranger but they are all very talented! In no particular order here they are:

Staci

Sheila

Amy

Monique

Cindy

Thanks again Sandy for the wonderful award!
