What to DO????



It's just amazing how fast time is going by. Seems like school was just starting and now we're halfway through the year already!!
Besides the fun I've been having watching the Olympics.....I've been keeping myself busy with all sorts of projects. It doesn't matter that I'm doing a hundred other things as well..... I've spent any free time I can find scrapbooking the past few weeks. First of all I decided I needed to put Jon's mission letters and things into the scrapbook I figured I would do someday.....until I just kept going and ended up finishing it completely (up to this point). He's sent a few hundred pictures home already...so it is a very fun book....each year of his mission will have a separate book because this one is already full. I don't do fancy scrapbooks... I use regular notebooks with black cardstock and the clear plastic pages......................(so I don't have to think)

I caught the bug......I had so much fun learning how to upload the pictures to Walgreens, that I went through all of our pictures from the church history trip we took 2 years ago and uploaded 300 pics and am now working on a scrapbook for that......... I'm obsessed!! But seriously I'm enjoying re-living our trip and knowing that my boy is back there very close to where we were ......it makes my heart HAPPY!!
On another note.....we enjoyed a nice Valentines dinner, just the 3 of us, last Sunday. Josh begged me to get the candle-abra down so we could eat by candlelight (even though it was still light outside).
I guess that's all for now...I have a busy day tomorrow. I'm going to the church cannery in the morning and then I'll be helping check in the youth for the 7 stake dance that's part of Dance Festival tomorrow night...... EEKS!! No time for Olympics OR scrapbooking tomorrow.......

It looks like you have been very busy!! How exciting that you have put together so many scrapbooks. :) Good luck with your busy day today!

Love the pictures! Your Valentine's dinner looked wonderful. I thought about getting my candle-aubra down, too, but it would have been too hard to dig through all the wedding stuff. Maybe next year..... Good to get the mission scrapbook while you're in the mood. I still haven't done my boys...

That's so neat that you will have Jon's scrapbok done before he even gets home! You are such a great mom!
Austin loved the dance the other night! He has such a good time going to dances down there. He's always amazed at how many kids are there. Our stake just doesn't have enough youth!

Debi...what a great Christmas gift you could give the boys one day...after all your wedding stuff is over. Now that they're older they would probably love getting something about their missions:)
