Scrapbooking Pages Using Supplies I Have on Hand

Today I am linking up with some fellow bloggers for a craft de-stash challenge.  I knew this challenge was the perfect opportunity to motivate myself to finish scrapbooking all those photos I had on hand from this year before my batch of photos arrived from our vacation.

I hope you stop by and see what the other hosts are sharing.



Meet this month's co-hosts!

    These pages are beautiful! Scrapbooking is so much fun and I love creating these types of pages. Pinning for inspiration.

    I've always loved scrapbooking, too. This is a wonderful way to preserve some keepsakes from family adventures.

      I just know I work so much better with a deadline; I am not a procrastinator unless I'm left to myself. ;)

    I love these pages! I just started scrapbooking, so I'm always looking for inspiration and what supplies I'll need. What did you use for the letters?

      Thank you! I use my circuit to cut out my letters; but when I was just starting out I mostly stuck with stickers.

    Your scrapbook came out really nice. I bought some but never put any together. I think this is definitely something I have to start doing soon since my kids are getting bigger. I'd love for them to have their own. Thank you for linking up with us at #OMHGWW

Things That Make Me Laugh

Image
I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my ...

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Image
Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mai...

Share Our Lives: Our Go To Snacks

Image
This month for Share Our lives we're talking about our go to snacks.  I honestly don't snack much anymore. I eat 3 main meals a day and rarely have an afternoon snack or any food after dinner. That said there are certain times of year or certain activities that bring on the snacking.  In summer I love ice cream. I try to hard to not indulge too much and won't keep it in the house. Around us ice cream places are only open from late spring until Labor day... or maybe mid-Sept. depending on the owner's whims.      Weekly hiking with our hiking group or my daily hikes with Evan rarely require any snacking/food but when Ben and I are on a trip or go on an all day summit hike I feel like I've more than earned some treats. We often pack trail mix but I do like one with lots of chocolate included!     On our Glacier National Park trip my husband and I splurged on a box of Nutty Bars and by the end of the week we had polished off the whole box.  I don...

21 Pilots The Clancy Tour Breach 2025

Image
Last Tuesday, September 30th, Evan and I had tickets to see 21 Pilots in concert in Hartford Ct. The show was at an indoor/outdoor venue called the Xfinity Center (not to be confused with the other indoor/outdoor Xfinitiy Center in Massachusetts). We had never been to the Xfinity Center and had no idea what to expect. Reviews online were not favorable but we really enjoyed it. I'll liberally sprinkle photos in around all the details, feel free to skip them and just look- most of the details are for me to remember anyway!  I wore comfy clothes with large pockets so I didn't need to bring a bag with me. I carried just my phone (with my credit card tucked inside), keys, and ear plugs. We were surprised to find ourselves so close to the stage! We got an email a few days prior outlining what time the parking lots and various things opened including the doors and decided to switch up our plans a lot. Originally we were going to arrive around 6 for the 8 o'clock show but the parki...

Talking About It Tuesdays #92

Image
 Fall weather finally arrived here in New England, we even had a frost warning Thursday night. It was quite a temperature jump from temps in the upper 70's and low 80's to temps in the mid 50's but at least I get to start wearing some of my sweaters and fall clothes. We got Evan's college applications all finished and this week he starts the rounds of college interviews. Wish him luck! I had no idea how much was involved on my end for getting all the paperwork done but we far surpassed all the admission deadlines since once I started I just wanted to get all those boxes checked off and cleared from my mental to- do list.  We had another successful party last week with well over 100 links. I hope you found some time to visit several. I found so many delicious looking recipes, adorable crafts, and even some book/reading ideas. I just love that I never really know what I'll find!        The link with the most views from last week's party:   Day Datin' by...
