Back from Vacation!

Well, I think we really lucked out and picked the best week possible to get off weather-wise! 
Some of the highlights:
An overnight trip to Niagara Falls with friends for birthday fun :)

We took Reid to the park for the first time - he loved it so much, especially the swings.  It was amazing to see him crawling all over the place, looking so inquisitive and curious <3

And finally, we spent an amazing weekend at Dan's parents' trailer with Reid and he got to ride his first bike! (An early birthday gift from grandma and grandpa Fleming <3)

Now back to the regular schedule, haha!  And the stuff I'm sure you are most interested in, I managed to squeeze in some layouts in between :)





All of these layouts were completed with my latest Studio Calico goodies - I ended up ordering three of the four add-ons this month (all except Leica - with a house full of boys, Holga had enough pink for me this time, lol).  After seeing the sneak peeks, I might have another "indulgent" month ;)

Well, that's all for the moment - I will try to get some of the new photos from this week scrapped and be back soon!  Thanks for reading and have a wonderful day :)

Basic Grey What's Up Collection

Here's the first layout I created with the prize pack from Basic Grey. I still can't believe our little guy is 9 months old already (that layout is to follow!). Time really does fly when you're having fun <3

Birthday Surprise

Hi everyone!
Well, it was a wonderful week off with Dan and Reid, and I will have lots of pictures and layouts to share :)
One of the best surprises this week was when my Basic Grey What's Up collection pack arrived - on my birthday! Good timing :) I still can't believe I was lucky enough to win their blog contest.
For some reason Blogger isn't working properly on my computer so I can only post one photo at a time - I will post again very shortly with some new layouts.
I'm hoping to get my Etsy store up and running this week, too. Fingers crossed!

Albion Falls (and a snack, haha!)

Happy Tuesday!
We took the little guy for a hike a couple of weeks ago to see the waterfall near our house. Of course, no trip is complete unless Reid manages to eat something he shouldn't, LOL.
I really can't believe he's going to be 9 months old on Friday. These past nine months have been the most awesome and scary months of my life - and the best <3 He's so much fun and his crazy facial expressions just crack me up.
The next little while will be crazy - Dan is on vacation starting Friday and next week is my birthday - but lots of opportunities for pictures! Which is good since I ended up ordering 4 kits from Studio Calico! Haha :)
I hope everyone is having a wonderful first of May, filled with love and laughter!
