The shell...

I've been following Monika Wright's i love it all blog and she had a really neat summer in the life mini book idea. I loved [ Ali Edwards ] December Daily and week in the life projects so I was excited to embark on a summer one.
Here is the bare bones-the cover (6 x 8) and the base pages (randomly sized) put together for me to start filling it with the fun play dates we've had this summer, the movies we've seen, the places we've gone, the friends and family that have visited, the songs that have kept us singing...the list goes on and on. I know I'll love looking back on this snapshot of a summer in our lives! I'll post pages as they develop

Chunky Holiday Mini Album

I've had this small board book kicking around for awhile so since July 3rd/4th weekend was jammed pack for us-parades, fireworks, friends, patriotic treats, visiting "sisters" and my little cuties all decked out I decided to use up any red, white and or blue scrap and put together this "patriotic" mini-here are a few pages from it.
My patriotic cuties...
At the Chesapeake 3rd of July parade...
Chesapeake's finest...
Tasty treat Mike & I remember from our childhood as well as the pasta tee craft the boys made...
My PWU "sister" Kim whom I met for the first time while her family vacationed in VAB over the holiday!
Excuse the less than stellar photography! ; )
