Scrappyness

Here are a few things I made recently for the last Scrappy Jo's online crop. The first one the is
made from a file folder. Go here for directions http://www.freepowerboards.com/shopscrapbooks/shopscrapbooks-about7651.html I think you have to sing up to be a member to few the instructions.

The challenge I made up was a LO challenge just to scrap something fun you do with your family.

And lastly was another LO challenge where you scrap about a relationship of some sort. Anyway thanks for looking. :)

Correction

Excuseeeee Meeee.

Jay informs me that it is Maxima. NOT an Altima!!

Photos

I did a little photo shoot yesterday with Darci and her pregnant belly that is housing MoBo (Unnamed baby girl) right now. I have been itching to shoot and I feel like I am loosing my game when it come to my photographs. So I need some practice. Darci was nice enough to let me practice with her.

I also came back and played with them using photoshop cause that's what I Do :)

After that Jay way nice enough to take me, Kyler, and Dan to lunch and then to the movies to see Ice Age. We got to ride in his hot new car!! A 09 Nissan Altima. It fancy Schmancy...

Well its suppose to be a scorcher today. 106, so I am better get in to town and home so we can stay cool.

Tag your it!

Go to the 10th picture folder on your wonderful little computer and post the 10th picture in that folder and explain the picture! NO CHEATING! (Feel free to tag someone else if you'd like to keep the randomness going!) I tag Pia and Audrey.

And now my picture:

I have a LOT of pictures on my computer. This is Katelyn, my best friend from high school Laura's daughter she is now almost 4. This was the first time I got to see her as they live way down in Sacremento. Can you see how excited she was to meet me?

I am not sure who came up with the idea but somehow we ended up camping outside in the backyard last night. Kyler loved the tent when we went camping last summer, so he was all for the idea. I got up about 7 am, Dan came in the house with me and is still sleeping as I type on the couch. Kyler came in about 8:00 and wanted to know where all the grown ups went.

I haven't accomplished much this weekend. I did get 4 scrapbook Lo's done and one mini album for my creative team assignment. I can't post them now though :) I have to wait until they are revealed for the store.

Other than that I cleaned house then made a mess again then picked up again then messed up again...

Safari

Kyler and I went to Wildlife Safari today with our friends Darci and Davey. And this time we went on the Elephant Encounter. I think it was the best part of the day for me. They did a little show for us. Which included Alice painting a picture and both Alice and Tiki playing the harmonica. We also got to feed them carrots. They took them with their trunk from our hands and placed them in their own mouths. And of course we got to pet them. So worth the extra cost!

Here is Kyler feeding Tiki.

I am not gonna post too many animal pictures as since I did last time we went. You can look at those here. But I really liked the one of Kyler trying to stand on one leg like the Flamingo's do. And the one Of Davey and Kyler on the slide.
