I'm back!

I cannot tell you how good it feels to finally get back to sitting at my desk and actually scrapbooking!

This has been the craziest, busiest, most insane summer of my life.  The kids are getting older and getting into every sport and activity imaginable.  It's unreal how time consuming these things can be.  And this was AFTER school let out for the Summer!  I'm actually relieved that school is back in session and things are on a much more manageable schedule.

We were also VERY lucky to embark on a long awaited European vacation.  We started out by leaving Chicago and flying into France.  After 3 days there, we took the train into London and stayed a whole week.  We have some family out there and had a wonderful time.  Then we flew into Ireland and stayed with family for 3 more days.  It was the most wonderful experience ever and I am so glad we finally did it.  It's definitely something we will not forget for a long time.

And it's going to be gazillions of scrapbook pages too.   :)

I just ordered all of the pictures to work on, so stay tuned.

Anyway...it's so good to be back.  My mojo was given a good swift kick and I participated in a sketchathon at 2 Broke Girls.  In 2 days (gotta love holiday weekends) I managed to kick out 14 pages for our previous trip to Disney.

They can be found HERE.

But for all my other pages, well....it's going to take a long time to chip away at those boxes of photos.  But I'm game, motivated and excited to get back into it all.  

A sketch from Sketchabilities was my first attempt at a non-disney page.

Here is the original sketch:

It's good to be back again...this is the therapy I needed.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Have a great day!
