Swings and things

Here we are mid-March! Although this past Winter has been nothing less than brutal with the multitude of snowstorms, I have to say it went by pretty quick -- otherwise! The weather has been so pleasant lately that we couldn't resist a quick trip to the park even when the temperature is only in the low 50's. We did just that a couple of weeks ago at the first sign of warmer weather.

Audrey is at the age where the swing is just "one of the activities to do" at the park. But for little Ella, the novelty is still there. And you can see the pure joy in her face. Every push of the swing elicits squeals of laughter from her little body and her smile would stretch across her face a mile wide. Ahh, I love.

Here's my layout of the girls on the swings using the new Pebbles Ever After line.


I totally get why people preserve their memories and life's little moments through scrapbooking now. It's just unfortunate that I am way, way behind. Scrapbooking new, recent photos have been much more enjoyable for me, compared to backtracking and digging through old photos. I wonder why that is?

  4. Super adorable! So sweet! :) And it's ok to not go backtrack. Doubt your little ones will care. I kind of like digging back every once in awhile when I'm nostalgic. That and I don't have adorable kids to scrap! ;-)
