Aggie Shoots. Aggie Scraps.

Before I look into the beautiful pendant lights we are going to install in my workstation, let me show SSD’s latest Treat of the Month feature. Wwe are featuring the beautiful gallery of Sasha Bliss also known as mom2peanuts in the digi-community. Sasha’s clean style is absolutely stunning, and we know you’re going to adore the way she clusters elements perfectly around her wonderful photos. As you get to know her better in this month’s Treat of the Month feature, be sure to keep your eyes open for a layout that you want to use as inspiration for a page of your own because lifting Sasha is the very first task that will earn you Sweet Reward points in this month’s portfolio! In addition to earning you a point, every layout posted in our special Treat of the Month Gallery this month will be automatically entered to win a $10 gift certificate to the shoppe! As if that weren’t sweet enough, don’t forget to look for more of Sasha’s work in the shoppe this month in our "Inspired By Sasha" templates created by Darcy Baldwin. Keep making those memories and scrap MORE!

At least I am consistent and updated with my little girl’s birthday pages. I don’t know how I will organize them in time I just make sure they are printed. I still have yet to tackle how to arrange all my loose layouts – those that go into ring albums. I have filled three AC 8×8 3D ring albums with around 150-200 layouts each and they are no way organized still. One of these days, I always say.

I overate during the princess’ birthday, as expected. It was also Mother’s day that day so I get to be excused because I was also celebrating my day! I just don’t know if I will take diet pills as I’ve read scary methylburn extreme side effects. Better be overweight and alive than skinny and dead!

Someday, I will have time to finally sit down and collate every single memorable thing my son said when he was a cute kid aged five (and below, hehehe). They are buried deep in my family blog and old LJ account – I plan to make an album of it since I suck at making him a first year album. But that, along with 20 other album projects, take a backseat as I need a virtual server to keep all my files. (I still haven’t gotten everything organized as well. I alternate between states of being extremely lazy and super stressed because I am cramming ). Too bad his Mom doesn’t know how to cook, sing, look sexy or even know how to make or choose the best school furniture for his room. Sorry son, I just know how to scrap

I should have bought more swimming pool supplies when we went on vacation last month. It would have been better with all the picture-taking I did. I cannot wait to get my hands on the album I made with Artscow!

These are some pictures we took from Mother’s Day. If I weren’t looking straight at the camera, you would have thought we were caught by the security camera as we are a very undemonstrative couple when in public. But it’s Mother’s Day and the husband was extra sweet that day.

Sharing some new pages – actually the single page I have done in two weeks. I have been extremely busy with the kids going back to school – the youngest in nursery and me waiting for her – I even had to sacrifice some exercise time with the  pull up bar because when I get home I need to work!

This is one of the few instances I created a double page layout and was lucky enough to have the page qualify for Gallery Standouts Thanks Kate for the vote of confidence!

Even if I was busy the past few weeks writing articles, taking care of the kids because our househelp went on vacation, and browsing for jobs in philadelphia pa for a friend who recently migrated, I took time out to scrap our Mother’s Day pictures. It is the best Mother’s Day celebration I have had in 10 years – save for 2006 because Martha was born on Mother’s Day.

I’ve been meaning to give my Mom a book about her children and while I am keeping the album easy, collating all our childhood pictures and choosing from them is one hard task. I will aim for it for her 60th birthday in November.

I didn’t get to check out the latest releases last weekend as we were out on a family trip and we were busy with my daughter’s birthday celebration (I pigged out too much that I definitely need the help of a fat burner to burn all the calories away!), but I checked out the new stuff this morning and checked out a lot of new kits I think this week will be allotted for scrapping!
