These Are My People

I have two boards in my Craft room full of pictures. Some are from Christmas cards I've gotten. Some are pictures that I have edited and then didnt like once they were printed but still couldn't part with them. One day I was sitting in my room and I looked around and thought there are two boards full of pictures of the people who are nearest and dearest to my heart!! Some friends, some family but each one special to me in their own way. I am so thankful to have each and every one of them in my life. They are my people and I love them all!!!

Mom and Me

I don't get to see my Mom near as much as I would like. But when we do get to spend time together we always have the best time!! I have learned so much from her over the years. She is the strongest woman I know. I take it as a compliment when someone says "That sounds just like your Mom."

Leah

Woo Hoo!!! Trying something new! Got my first kit from Studio Calico. Couldn't wait to start playing. Don't you just love those happy mail or in this case UPS days. Mixed and matched with some stuff I had in my stashes and some things made with my Slice and this is what I came up with. My little niece Leah lights up a room when she smiles. Her whole face lights up. Just wish I could see this little smile more often!!!

Merry Christmas

When I first started Scrapbooking I had to go in sequence to how things happened. Well thank goodness I am over that. I now look through pictures and if I see one that hits me at that moment that I want to scrap I act on it. This pic. was taken on Christmas Day. These 3 drive me crazy trying to get a picture of them. I just wanted one picture where they were smiling sweetly. Well this is the best one I got. I guess I could look at it that my life would be so boring if they weren't silly all the time. I love them all. They keep me going!!
