My new Scrapbooking Blog site

If you go to http://scrapnocrap.blogspot.com/
you can see my new scrapbooking blog. I have posted my cards, vinyl for the walls, and decorative boards used in my house and those made for gifts. I have so much fun doing this hobby and wanted a record of what I have created. I hope if you are crafty you will enjoy this.

Can you name that tune?

Damian started band at school. He is following in his dad's footsteps and learning to play the trumpet. Here is what he sounds like. Sorry for the jumpy video but I couldn't stop laughing. Earplugs anyone? Seriously, I am really excited that my kids want to learn how to play musical instruments, but now I know why my mother-in-law had to take Steven to the park to practice.

No more Floaties!!!

I am happy to report that all 3 of my kids learned to swim this summer just by swimming nearly everyday in our pool. Emmalee and Damian only needed about a week to do it and now they swim like fish and dive in too. However, Aubrey has had a lot more hesitation about putting her face in the water. But, this weekend she swam from one side of the pool to the other with NO FLOATIES!!!! Yippee. I just gave her some new "Cool" goggles and away she went. Then she said, "Now I can swim across the deep end to the other end of the pool". She did that too!

Here is a video to show you how cool she is in the pool.


Here is a cool picture of her too.
