Marie Layouts

Hello crafty people!

I hope you have something that is putting a smile on your

face today.
These layouts that I'm sharing with you today 

are doing just that for me.

These pictures were taken my by #2 daughter,

Amanda.  She's Kelsie's best friend.
I think she does a beautiful job with photography.

We got Marie a "princess castle" for the back yard

and she was so thrilled with it.

Some pictures of Marie that are just too cute to not

scrapbook.  I love that one with the pink eyebrows.

When she has her face painted or plays make up with 

Auntie Kelsie, she never wants to clean off her

eyebrows.  She's just too funny and 
just so darn cute!

Thanks for stopping in today.

I hope something here put a smile on your face.

Come again soon,

until then,

spread smiles!

 

Pumpkin Hunt 2021 & 2022

Hello Everyone!

I've had some time to do some scrapbooking lately and

I thought I'd show you a couple layouts that I created.

Every year since my daughter was born, almost 33 yrs ago,

we have gone on a pumpkin hunt. We go to a specific 

fruit and veggie stand and find all the pumpkins we want,

then we go to lunch or dinner together.

Here are a couple layouts from the last couple 

pumpkin hunts.

As you can see, I'm a little behind on my scrapbooking.

I did my 2021 and 2022 layouts at the same time.

The 2021 hunt was special since we found out that day

that we were going to be grandparents again.

Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures to depict that.

The whole family couldn't come for this pumpkin hunt,

but there was someone from each family unit there to

choose the pumpkins.  The rest of them participated in

the carving of the pumpkins.
My son, Jaryd, was being crazy that day and his apple

was in almost every picture.

We always have a lot of fun when we do our pumpkin hunt

and we plan to continue it until I'm old and feeble.  LOL,

then they will do it on their own.  We used to do this with my

Mom and she went every year, even when she couldn't get out

of the car to walk around.  Family time is always precious.

Thanks for stopping by today, I hope you'll come again soon.

I have more layouts to show you so I'll be posting them soon.

Until then,

scrap on!

 

Layouts

Hi All!

Now that the pandemic is more under control and 

many of us have had our vaccines, we have opened our

scrapbooking and crafting studio again.

I'm finally finding the time and motivation to get moving

on my scrapbook of our granddaughter.  I have 18 months to 

catch up on and I'm making a decent dent in that.

Here are a few layouts that I've finished.

If you click on a picture you can see them enlarged.

When I had my kids they didn't have this kind of photography

available at the hospital.  Beautiful pictures!

It was wonderful getting to visit and hold my 

first grandchild!

My hubby was out of town when Marie was born,

but the first thing he did when he got home was 

go and meet her.

Our daughter was so excited to be an Auntie.
Aunt Zoe is Jaryd's God Mother
Uncle Brian and Aunt Kelsey Ann are Marie's

God Parents.

Sara's Moms and sister got to visit her too.

I think this is my favorite layout that I have done so far.

I love all the smiley faces.

Buffalo Bills fan, Harry Potter fan, little ballerina and just

silly fun.

First Christmas!

Daddy and his girl.

Thanks for stopping by and visiting for a while.

I hope you'll be back soon to see what else I have to 

share with y'all.

Until next time,

Cherish those you love!

 

Catching Up On Some Scrapbooking

Good Day Blog Friends!

Recently I went on a scrapbooking weekend with my 

friend Mary. If you follow my blog you have seen the 2 bag books

I made that weekend.

Here are a couple layouts I also made.

My "niece" Tammy hosted a picnic and had a photographer friend 

come and take pictures.

These are some of the pictures he took that day.

There were so many good pictures of Anthony

that I had a difficult time narrowing them down.

Is he "The Man" or what?!?!?!

More of Anthony with little sister Andrea.

They are both just too cute!

I'm so far behind with my scrapping that these are

already a few years old.

 

Andrea is now going to be starting Kindergarten.

These are from 2013.

They both are so grown up now.

Thanks for stopping by today to see what I've been

 up to.  I hope you'll come back again soon.

You never know what you'll find on 

Kristie Kreates.
