January Calendar

This is our January Calendar made by Michelle Swadling at Gotta Pixel. These are great pictures of Peter on the beach in Newport Beach, CA during Winter Break. We had a great time playing in the water.

Christmas Magic

I have been working on getting a good photo for our Christmas cards so I thought I would experiment with my son playing with the Christmas lights. He loved it and I got two amazing shots.

This was for the adspiration at Gotta Pixel last month. I did a couple of different shots of people looking at the water at Lake Coeur d'Alene but the one of Noel just was so simple and serene. I love it.

1st Entry devoted to Scrapbooking

I love scrapbooking but since my son was born, there is never time for it. I randomly do get cards done, especially since I am so motivated by the price of Hallmark cards being so ridiculous expensive. I few weeks ago on Connected-Moms I was checked out a group called **Digi-Scrapping Group** which all do scrapbooking digitally. Since then, I have been trying it out and I love it. When my son is napping on me, I can sit there are scrap. It is wonderful. I never used embellishments before now because of the cost, but I have found a lot of freebies that are just wonderful.

I want this blog to be focused on my adventures in scrapbooking and photography, mainly centered around my son. Check back to see what I am finding in the industry and what my camera is finding in it's view find. I hope you enjoy.
