Vacation

I’m on vacation right now. My parents have a ranch in South Eastern Idaho and we’re enjoying the green, wide open spaces. My little girl loves to be here. She runs free; frolics with the cows and horses; rolls in the hay; and relishes in being allowed to get as dirty as she wants.

My little baby loves just being around people, so he’s happy to have all the love and attention. My dad has been smooching on his new grandbaby since we walked through the door.

Life is good. On my trip up here, I stopped in Flagstaff and was able to visit with Jennifer at her parents cabin. We were even able to get a little scrappin’ in … and I pleated some patterned paper (like I mentioned I wanted to in an early post) on a page Jen was working on. I actually didn’t bring my scrapbooking stuff with me. I had it all packed and forgot to load it into my car. So, when I was with Jen, I scrapped some of her pictures!

We played a little with the August main kit, which really made me want to scrap. So much so that I went to into town yesterday and bought a paper trimmer and some adhesive. I figure that’s all I need since I have the August kit in my hot little hands. Once the kids are tucked in bed tonight I can get busy creating.

I’m rambling. My point is that being on vacation has given me a renewed desire to scrap. Every time I take a new picture, I think “Oh, I can’t wait to create a page with that.” I’ve been so busy lately and adjusting to our new little family member, my scrapping has fallen to the wayside. I’m so thrilled to be getting back into a creative groove.

I’m going to start with a page featuring my son and his Great Grandma, who he met for the first time on Sunday. What are you working on today?
