Yes, Yes, I know my blog says it has been some 5 weeks or something since I have updated....oops. I didn't manage to get anything creative done for quite awhile. We are in the middle of putting new windows and siding on our house and it seems like the summer has just been crazy. At the beginning of the summer I had huge plans for getting all of this stuff done, now it is August 19 and I look back and think "Hmmm what have I done all summer and where did it go?" I am ready for some routine in my life and all but one of my afternoons in the week to have all 4 of my kids at school!!!!!!!! I did, however get some scrap booking done last weekend. it was rainy and nothing even resembling the August weather I am used to so I locked myself in my room and went to work. Very enjoyable I must say, just wish I could get away with that every weekend, even if it was only for one day!

I spent most of last weekend in my scrap book room. It was a very nice change and I actually got some things accomplished. The layout with the spinner (below) I scrap lifted from Life as Lou, although she gives you full instructions on her blog it was much more complicated!!!!!!! I am not exactly sure what I did wrong, but it turned out ok anyway I guess....
