A Little Bit of This, A Little Bit of That...

i received a Random Act of Kindness last night. i am so happy that this wonderful woman decided to bless me with her gift. it really gave my night a boost! it was a great end to my day. thank you dianne!

here are just a few layouts i have to share:

this first layout was made while trying to teach a friend who is interested in digital scrapbooking how to do a simple layout. this was just supposed to be an example, but when the time came to close it, i thought it was rather cute and kept it as is!! this sweet little face belongs to za'kenzie, whose mom is val, a friend of mine and awesome photographer and digiscrapper!

whew! that was some serious scrapping going on there! i had fun and am really enjoying my new kits from sara (thank you sara!).

ok. now comes the part of the post that i really don't care for. sharing bad news. some of you may already know about my dad. he is a diabetic and has had to have one of his legs removed and a toe from the remaining leg. i am leaving for georgia in a couple of days to go and see him. and, my son lives there too so i will get to visit with him also. i cannot believe he will be 18 in june. i feel old... alot of that going around today lol. i was reading gina's blog and saw her faded memories layout. it's a layout of her with her parents when she was around a year old. when i saw the year, i thought "she's so young!" followed by "oooh! i'm sooo old!"
