Bracket Album and other digiscrapping stuff.

April 12, 2008

I wanted to share a fun little project I did just before I had Haylie (actually the day before I had her!). I created a “bracket album” with pictures of Annie from each month of 2007. Kind of a simple “year at a glance” little mini book, no journaling. I’m planning on making one for […]

Easter Weekend ’08

March 25, 2008

We had a great Easter weekend, with lots of pictures. On the chilly Saturday morning we went to our neighborhood Egg Hunt–although it was not too warm the kids had a blast.
