Remembering Old Times

So I recently discovered Facebook and can't get over how cool it is. It has brought me in contact with many old and current friends. It has reminded me how much I loved high school, that life has brought many good memories to me! I have been able to have instant message exchanges with my girls and/or my sister. I probably wouldn't have spent that time on the phone, so it is even more important! Genuis, whoever invented it!

I have gotten some happy mail lately! Two of the three pages I submitted for the Memory Makers Annual Reader Idea Gallery issue were picked up! I am beyond thrilled!

And, I so loved the inauguration this week. Regardless of your political views (and, yes, I know that it is all about politics), it was a pretty cool moment in history! I was having one of my nightly conversations with Nathan about the day and mentioned Barack Obama to him.

He said, "Is Barack Obama coming to our house when we all go to sleep?"

"Um, no, Nathan. He is not like Santa Claus." I replied.

"Is he like the Easter Bunny?" he asked.


Kids. They see the world from a whole different perspective!

I leave you with a layout that I just completed using my February kit from The Nook. I love how it has all the colors of Valentine's Day without being too cutesy or romantic! Jenni Bowlin does some great work, huh!? This is a layout about my two best friends. We have been in each other's lives for over 20 years! Cool, huh.

  4. That's too funny that we've chatted at the Nook. I had joined there a year or two ago, then only recently started uploading layouts again. Small world. Guess we'll be chatting even more now, huh?
