Time to Travel!

Morning all! This week starts a new theme at Lasting Memories and our theme this month is TRAVEL! Very cool! Our challenge this week is "Mystic Mountains" which doesn't mean it has to be about mountains - check out the challenge to see how we did different takes on this one! For mine, I decided to showcase this page of a trip we took in 2009 to a place called "Palmer Rapids" and while we weren't in the middle of actualy mountains, to us it felt that way with all the rocks, climbs etc. Was very cool! Kids learned to kayak and body surf that weekend! To me, they moved mountains just by taking on those challenges :)

LM #232 - So Happy Together

Morning! As you know, our theme at Lasting Memories this month is "Friendship" and this week, our challenge for you is "So Happy Together" and I thought this layout was perfect. This is a page from the wedding album I did for my friend. I actually LOVE this page. I think it was one of my fav's from the whole album. The flowers were all bunched together in the package, which gave me the 'bouquet' idea! Love it!

Thanks for stopping by today and hope you can join the fun!

Friendship Month at LM!

Morning everyone! We have a new theme and challenge at Lasting Memories today! Our theme for March is "Friendship" and this weeks challenge is "Partner's in Crime" and we're not just looking for people friends so be creative! My layout is my daughter and at the time, her BFF - they were inseparable! Love these photo's that Sydney's mom took .. pop on over to LM to see what the very creative DT put together! Thanks for stopping by!

LM #228 - Sweet as can Be

This week at Lasting Memories, out challenge is "Sweet as Can Be". If you really want to challenge yourself, try to use food somewhere on your layout to keep with our food theme. This wknd was our annual winter retreat and I had one goal - to start and finish a wedding album as a gift for a friend. And I did! So today's layout is one of those pages and is perfect for this weeks challenge!

I have to look, but the overlay is either from Cricut's "Paperlace" or "Artbooking" cartridge and the cake is from the "Sweetheart" cartridge. I tried to make it match her actual cake, not bad!

Come on over and see what everyone else did!! Gorgeous work over there! Thanks for stopping by!

Photoshoot with Ace

Sitting watching the football prelims, thought it would be a great time to do a little photoshoot with Ace since he was calm for a bit! These are too cute!

LM #225 - Life's Lesson "Chocolate Pizza"

Morning all! Happy Sunday and guess what! Time for a new challenge at Lasting Memories and this week we are challenging you to create a layout showcasing a "Life's Lesson" .. I hope you can take a moment and pop by the challenge as well because there are some awesome layouts over there and some great life lessons too! Here's my take on this weeks challenge:

A few years ago, my cousin and I took our girls on a crafty road trip and we stopped at Boston Pizza for lunch. After lunch, the waitress asked the girls if they would like a "chocolate pizza" to which they both said YES PLS! Well!! When their 'pizza' came to the table, we all burst out laughing! It was the size of a toonie!!!! Life lesson??? Things aren't always what they seem!

Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a fabulous day!

They Call It Puppy Love

So life in the Wilson household is settling, slowly (lol) and this little guy has certainly got a hold of my heart strings. Ashleigh loves him to pieces and he's crazy about her. With his crazy antics, his "i'm not tired" face, his "i'm grumpy and tired" growl before he crashes .. his 5 laps around the table to see who will catch him first to cuddling up on the couch beside you when he's had enough .. hubby took these today, but I didn't realize I was actually in the photo's so when he sent them to me I was surprised as I actually love the pics!

I think this last one if my fave

Thanks for stopping by. Hope you're having a fabulous weekend and cya back here tmw with a new challenge at Lasting Memories and a pretty funny layout :)
