Snow Day Fun & Layouts!

Ok... so I know i'm a couple of days late with my update... but i've only just had some time to myself!

Last Saturday was a crafty afternoon/evening with the girls... Nats & Rach... It was a lovely time, just chatting and catching up with each other... I really struggled to get the old Mojo flowing after so long out from scrapping... they had done two layouts each and I was only just sort of sticking a few bits down... but after an earlyish night and a bit of sleep... Sunday was another thing... I found solutions to my embellishment problems, seeing as though I had no Halloween type at all, I had to improvise and found my Penny Black Trick or Treat stamps along with Sakura pens and See D's Swirly Alpha set and I think I actually like the finished layouts!

This is Thomas...

This is Calum...

The photo's were taken back in 2004... they were going to a school Halloween Disco... since we first started taking them Trick or Treating they have always dressed as Vampires... hmmm maybe that's down to me as I read so many books/stories on Vampires etc whilst I was pregnant... I just love anything mystical and magical... LOL

Now for the Snow Day fun... the boys were off school Monday and Tuesday due to the lovely snow we've had! Monday we stayed close to home and boys just played in the garden having snowball fights, but Tuesday we decided to get out for a bit so dug the sledge's out of the shed and went down to the pavillion for a walk and some fun...

The boys spent ages building this snowman inbetween snowball fights and sledging down the hill... I got loads of photo's and hopefully I will get time to make them into a mini album in memory of Snow Day!!!

It's snowing yet again... I have shopping to do, but may wait until the boys finish school!
Think i'll spend the day working on the letter 'X' as I have a layout idea in my head and photo's already to go... Hopefully back a bit later with some more layouts!
