a bright album on a dark, rainy day

Surprisingly, I am loving all the rain that is pouring down today!

With day light savings the kids were up this morning when it was pitch black outside. I wish they knew how lovely it was to sleep in. I think they are keeping us in-check before the baby comes so it's not a huge adjustment. (Sleep... what's that?) The good thing is you can get a lot done when your kids are up at the butt crack of dawn.

While watching a movie over the weekend I put together this really random album of felt, fabric, envelopes, acrylic pages, Dear Lizzy tape, ribbons & instax photos from our family vacation in July.

I'm putting together a gift list of ideas for Christmas & that includes the Instax camera... I love mine. I carry it in my purse everywhere I go.
