Everyday Life

This is a very simple page done with Fancy Pants paper letters and a saying. I put everything on black cardstock and painted it a bit with acrylic paint. This was my favorite page of the weekend and it only took me a bit of time to do. I keep looking at my pages and have come to the conclusion that I take pictures of every day life and put them on paper. I occasionally take out my kids to take pictures because I want to see them in every stage of their lives and preserve what they look like. However, there are no formal "photoshoots". I mean, I wanted to make sure I had a picture of Lucas with his long hair and then laughed the day I saw him dipping his strawberries in the canister of sugar with his pants pulled way down and his Family Guy boxers sticking way out. While I love some of the stuff people do with their pages, I really don't have the time (or maybe the creativity and talent) and energy to make each one a work of art. In other words, this is the scrapbooking of a very busy mother whose therapy is scrapbooking.
