AYM

It's been awhile---things have been crazy around here. First, the sisters visit, then our farm crop----came home on Friday just is time for the Lapps family to arrive. They will be here all week.  I have a lot to blog about, just not enough time to do it right now. In the meantime, here are the layouts for this month's A Year of Memories/2. Their assignment this month was to complete the phrase: "Happiness is..." They were also to pay attention to the advertising around them and pick something as an inspiration piece.
Kim used a page out of the Dick's Sporting Goods catalog to make her page.


The flower takes the place of the underwear clad torso above.

Suzanne used this Cheerios box as her layout inspiration.

It's a little hard to see in the picture, but she frayed the ends of the placemat under her pot of soup. Really clever.

Sally used this cookbook as her inspiration.
If you look close, you can even see the stitching. She is planning to add 6 photos and some journaling. She wants to take some interior shots of their cabin the next time they are out there.

I'm really enjoying seeing what these gals come up with every month. Even if their families don't always "get it", by the end of the year, they will have an album filled with little glimpses of their life---what they love, what's important to them and what makes them happy. That's what it's all about! Did anyone say "hokey pokey?"
