Send More Jam

by: CindyS

Description: Okay, I confess. I posed this photo to send to my mom because we just LOVE her homemade blackberry jam and we were distraught when we ate the last of it. I knew she'd get a kick out of it. Then I realized this was a memory I needed to keep via my scrapbooks! And here's the result. Thanks for looking. :) Kit: Blustery Day by Susan Bartolini (ScrapKitchen Designs) and Christy Lyle at Sweet Shoppe Designs Speech Bubble: Oopsy Doodle by Miss Mint at Peppermint Creative Fonts: First Grader and Georgia

Description: We really enjoyed our trip to Hershey PA, but we spent some of the time out of the parks and exploring around the countryside. This little attraction was very calm and relaxing, and I highly recommend the family-style dinner they serve there...YUM!!!

The Great(est) Pumpkin

by: CindyS

Description: My dd was determined to choose the biggest pumpkin in the patch last year, and I think she did it. When we weighed it at checkout, the guy told us that was the biggest one he'd seen so far. I believe it was in excess of 40 lbs!

Description: I created this layout for this week's Spin-A-Lift challenge at Sweet Shoppe Designs. I spun and lifted Emily Merritt's layout called [url=https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/inspiration/showphoto.php?photo=7611&ppuser=14]"Pirates Cove"[/url]. Journaling: "The Clearwater Festival began in 1969 when Pete Seeger and many of his activist friends built a sloop and sailed it down the Hudson River, entertaining and raising awareness of the damage pollution was causing to the river habitat. This year we attended the Clearwater Festival where we got to hear fantastic music, dance, learn about the river and its inhabitants (Rebecca held a horseshoe crab, but Ben was not interested), and feel a part of a caring community.

Fishing

by: CindyS

Description: One of the activities we always do when I take the kids to NC for our summer visit is go fishing with my dad. This year we tried a new place...fewer bugs, less poison ivy! And my son actually enjoyed himself and caught a fish. Had to document this proud moment. :D Journaling: "Last year Ben was so completely unenthusiastic about fishing with Papaw...he whined almost the entire time. This year he not only enjoyed himself, he also finished the day the big winner. He caught a lovely bass and was brave enough to pose with it."

Picnic

CindyS — Sun, 08 Jul 2007 03:01:33 +0000

by: CindyS

Description: What a fantastic inspiration layout and template for the Cookie Decorating challenge! I had a lot of fun putting together this layout of my daughter at the 2nd grade year-end picnic. You'll notice I chose to remove all the circles and leave an emptier canvas, giving me a bit more room to journal without feeling cluttered. EVERYTHING on the layout is from the new Girl Next Door collection (Garden Girl kit) that I picked up today and had to use right away. Gorgeous stuff, ladies.
