Went fishing' withmy son....

This is the Ol' Ellis Bridge in color!

Here it is in sepia....

now b/w (not exactly the same shot)!

I can't wait to use this shot in a really vintage fishing LO!   I already have the perfect paper in mind!

 This is my beloved son with this Rocket fishing pool!   It was the craziest thing...and we had so much dun with it!   Thanks for a wonderful day at Big Creek,son!

Packing Day and some scrapbooking stuff....

I am so tired!   Got a dresser cleaned out, my large jewelery box and moved that furniture and two other pieces out to the living room!   So next trip to Bison we will be moving four pieces of furniture and 15 boxes!  My back hurts and I have had a darn headache all day!   We have lived in this house for so long - it is kinda sad in a way to see it growing bearer with each day!   If any of you have moved from a home ya lived in for 10+ years, you know what I am saying!

 I also was working here in there on my big August Crop!   So excited....planning a big day!   I am even going to serve breakfast and lunch to those who come!   Lots of planning still to do, hope I have a good turn out!   Had a couple of ladies from Missouri and Oklahoma that might come!   That would be so very exciting to meet some of the scrappy gals that I met on Paper...Talk...Scissors!

A Long Day At Work....Updated!

and I am not done yet!   Lordy, Lordy, Lordy I am so tired...been working on my scraproom for 5 hours!   And still I am not done!   Got a few more things to get in the scraproom!  I just can not wait to scrap for myself...let alone havin' my August Crop!  I got alot of stuff put away...but ya never know us scrapper flexibility should be in our name!

This is my ds and I, he help me out some today with the scraproom but it it summer time/no school he really wanted to just play!  Anyhow he wanted to take a ma and son pic for my blog!  LOL!   He is such a silly head away!   Then again so am I!   LOL!

We Are Moving...

to a school!    Yes to live in!   We have been looking for a house/building for a very long time now!   And we found it!   Third week of April all paper work, getting bills put in our name and so on was done!   I finally got to move my scrappy stuff to the new school house! 

And believe me this pic is only a fourth of my stuff....I had been putting stuff away for two hours already!   LOL!   My dear son got the camera out and took some pics while I was working!   (To be honest I really did not know that I had so much pack into 13 creates, and 4 boxes!  I think I really do have a problem!)

And I finally used my webcam for the first time!   This is a pic of me after working all day...figuring out where I need/want to put things!   After a while putting stuff away I found so many stash goodies that I forgot that I had (I wanted to start scrapbooking)!    With all of the scrappy stuff and paper kits galore!  I will be having a Give A Way!  Please make sure you keep watching for more info!  And updates on how things are moving along!    

August Crop,,,

so here goes I was wondering if anyone would want to come to Bison Kansas for a crop? We have just purchased the elementary school! Got a great start on my scrapbooking room! Needless to say I have a classroom for my scrapping room! Got room for 15 scrappers! I am looking at the second week in August! Please email me for more info/reservation! indiansugar2001@yahoo.com And keeping on watching this blog for sneak peaks!

Anybody scraplifted something lately?

My dear son with his Great Aunt/God Mother Susie at my Cousin Andy's wedding!  The following LOs were scraplifted from Scrapbooking Trends April 2008 and April 2009

My poor son thinks this one is girly!  But he did like it!  Stilling needing to journal, I put alot of thought into this one!

Oh we had so much fun at the Sonic Drive In playground!  Can't remember how many times I took our son down the slide that day!  Very simple LO used with these pics, and used three different shots on this event!







One of the things that I have always done is to go on walks with my son.  One day my son had the camera and took these great pic of our shadows!  I had never thought to take pics of shadows, he is such a smarty!  Any how, I made this LO interactive!  It has an accordion style album for 4 pics and a place to journal!

I got this great kit called "BLISS" and I don't think I have to tell how pretty this kit is!
