JG received his assignment notification about 2 weeks ago and we will be heading to Kentucky! I am rather excited as I haven't lived on the eastern side of the US since I left home in 1998! A few years in Idaho, then a few more in Washington State and 4 years in Germany and I miss being close to my family. Now we can drive to visit them rather than fly. Of course, that means we have to fly to see JG's parents in California but we can deal with that. It is hard having family all over the US though as someone always feels slighted when we plan our vacations. We cannot possibly visit everyone so maybe now people will actually come visit us. I love my family but it sure would be nice if we were not the only ones expected to make the trips to vist as airfare for 4 is expensive and since my oldest starts school this fall we have to plan around the school vacations as well.
I have had a few minutes to get my craft on this month and have been working on layouts, cards and crocheting a baby blanket. I have a ton of photos to get scrapped or at the very least into albums and that is one project I need to attack before we move! I am looking into picking up some of Becky Higgins' Project Life products just for this purpose because it should make for quick photo organization...however, that is a whole separate subject.
I made this layout for a recent Club CK 1-Hour Challenge where we were to bust out our scoring boards and use it to make something for the layout. The papers and most of the embellishments are by October Afternoon for this one. The ribbon isn't quite as uneven as it looks in the photo because I cannot take a straight close up photo of a layout! Grrr. I need to slow down a bit.
Thanks for stopping by today. I am going to make an honest effort to blog regularly again.
