Christmas in August

I got some scrapping done this week, and am working on Christmas 2015 (i know i'm so far behind!!!!)

Nana! although my son and his cousin lived 1200kms away from each other, when they get together they are so similar it blows my mind. Here they are giving nana heck and both of them have the same attitude while talking to her. It was so incredibly cute, I love this picture. I used a sketch from paper issues

Grandma's White Sauce: every year my grandma would make white sauce for chirstmas dinner and family get togethers (it's famous in our family). She would never give anyone the recipe because she wanted it just for herself. So the year before when grandma was making it, I watched her and figured out why she didn't give anyone the recipe (there was no recipe because it is all about taste and a little bit of this and a little bit of that). I used August 1's Let's Scrap sketch: http://letsscrapsketches.blogspot.com/2018/08/new-sketch-1-8-18.html

Parent Link end of summer 2016

Every summer parent link in bonnyville has an end of summer party. This year we went to the horse farm just outside of town where we had a picnic lunch, playtime in the park and horse wagon rides.

Yay still working on 2016 and getting thru it. My son loves when i scrapbook because he loves looking at the photos and telling he remembers this and remembers that, it's quite adorable and makes my heart smile.

Happy birthday Aron and Alden

Life has been so crazy with work, kids and planning a wedding but I was able to take some time and scrap. These photos are 2 years old (summer of 2016) and I am so happy I scrapped them. My son was so happy to see these photos again as it brought up so many good happy memories for him.

Father's Day gift

Happy Father's day out there to everyone!!!! I made my fiance a scrapbook album of pictures of his kids and my son. I surprised him by using photos he had from when his kids were young and saved on his phone. To say the least he was very surprised and more than a few tears were shed as he was so surprised and grateful for the album.
