more pages

 Ivy's first Christmas! She was 10 days old and Grandma came to visit to see her new grand daughter and for Christmas!
 IED pics from Iraq. This is not the IED that hit david, but one that hit a convoy his friends were on. They went out to put up a perimeter around it so insurrgents would not attack again. pretty scary stuff. No one was hurt in this attack.
 The Fitzgerald family. I have been blessed to know then since the day I was born :)
 Our first family goodbye. Constance was four weeks old when David had to go back to Iraq.
 Me and Constance!
 Wild Animal park in San Diego. Beautiful zoo!
 My great grandparents, grandma and grandpa king. They are my grandma Butler's parents
 my little brother Brian! I love this pic of him!
Bus ride from the airport to our resort at Disney. We were all super excited to get there, and the girls loved the bus ride!



Hope everyone is having a good week. David has been working ALOT, but has the next two days off. Of course that means he still has to go in the mornings for a pt test and other stuff. Life in the army can be so fun at times! lol 9 more months and we will be done with all that! We are excited and scared all at the same time! Hoping to get a few more pages done today. Have a good day!

Im back :)

 My mom on her wedding day! I have always loved this picture.
 Me on my wedding day with my dad and Uncle Kevin! Good times!
 Jessica getting to hold Paige for the first time after we got home from the hospital. Paige was getting a bath when Jess brought the girls to meet their sister in the hospital so they only got to see her through the window.
This is a layout that I decided to redo. I just wasn't happy with the first one at all. This is ultrasound pics of Constance. It was an easy page, but I am pretty happy with how it turned out. I had seen this concept on another page a long time ago and had been wanting to do it with one of the girls. I ended up not doing it with Ivy's and Paige's but since I wanted to redo Constance's I thought it was the perfect opportunity!

OK, so I got so burnt out on scrap booking that I took a month off :) I tried a couple times to get back in my groove, but I would do a page or two and then lose interest again. I think I am finally back though :) Which means lots of catching up to do! I have been doing some major reorganizing of my scrapbooks, getting them all in order and all in books. I still need to buy a butt load of more page protectors, but I did buy some new albums to get all my loose pages into. My goal this week is to get caught up on my pages, then I will do some more organizing for our family albums :) Hope everyone is enjoying this nice weather! I know we are!

Lost my mojo!

 Amy and I in middle school! We were 13! Takes me back :) Good memories!
Ivy's crib. Some of her in it and me standing in front of it right before she was born. In fact I think that was the day before she was born :)



So I lost my scrap booking mojo there for a little bit! I took a little over a week off. Some of these pages I did before that time, I just didn't even feel like blogging them. But I am back, and plan on doing a few more pages at some point today :)
