life {in pictures}

We have a "swimathon" tonight. The swim coaches will be at the pool for 12 hours, from 7PM to 7AM. And the kids are welcome to stay as long as they can. Poor Colton got up at 6AM this morning so I think he might fade out pretty quickly, I can only hope that two or three hours of swimming will tire him out anyways. Ashlin on the other hand got up at 6AM for a bit and then went back to sleep until 10:30AM. I think she will last for a long time. We need to take blankets nad jammies. I can not say that it is my idea of a fun night (I don't like mosquitos!) but Ashlin and Colton are so excited. I am charging my camera battery and cleaing out my memory card so I can take as many pictures as I want :D

I do feel kinda bad that I did not raise any money through pledges for Ashlin and Colton. It is kinda hard when everyone I talk to is trying to do the same for their kids too. The joys of living in a small town is everyone fundraises and no one really does that well.

I am sure that I will have a ton of pictures tomorrow :D

I managed to scrap a layout of Ashlin and her fav things. I used the August MC kit and it was fun! I have been sewing on my layouts again, well that and sanding. I need to go and buy more sandpaper even. I have been scrapping so that I can buy lots of new goodies from CHA and not feel to guilty about all the old stuff I have.

Anyways here is my layout from the MC kit:



oh and the first kit layout from the MC kit too:




Isn't shopping a wonderful thing!
