Today is my sister’s birthday. So I am posting this layout I made a while back of her and my son.

I’ve been accused of worshiping Jeanine Baechtold and Jen Reed! Well maybe I have been a bit. After all they are my favorite designers (which you can see by looking at my popular tags list). Once they found out about my “worshiping” they asked if I would join their CT. I immediately said yes!

Here is a layout I made using their newest Christmas kit at Kristy Valshan. It’s call Yuletide. I love how they use the traditional Christmas colors with classic black and white. You wouldn’t normally think they would work well together but Jeanine and Jen did a fantastic job!

Journaling: Do you know where your nose is? I do!

Last night we went to a Halloween party. It was very crowded and they had a hay game inside! Talk about major hay fever. They even had to call the medics for one lady! I almost could breath. I am stilling suffering from it. Anyway I made this layout from photos I took last night. We won the family costume contest!

Journaling: It was October 26, 2007. You were wearing the costume I made you, a knight. You looked adorable. Ready to save any damsel in distress. We had gone to the Seymour-Johnson AFB Halloween Block Party. You entered the ages 1-3 costume contest but didn’t win. But we did win the family contest. We wouldn’t have won it without such our adorable Knight in Shining Armor. You were so happy in your costume, swinging you sword around and almost hitting bystanders. I plan to make you a costume every Halloween.

My son is really getting to tantrums now. One day it was so funny that I had to take pictures. I was also trying so hard not to laugh!
