WHERE has the month gone! Oh my gosh! I had hoped to be on top of the blog a bit more! WE have been so busy busy here in the Johnson house!!

I have had 3 field trips on the last 7 days! :) We went to Hoods Canal over Memorial day weekend, it was FUN! I was working for a week on Amanda's teachers baby gifts.. the whole class was helping! We made up a baby advice book~ SO CUTE! and a scrapbook that all she has to do is add photos too! SO CUTE too!! I have been helping at the school~ I go back up in a bit for my popcorn day! A CRAZY fun 3.5 hour job!!!

I have some photos to share with you from the field trips! The first was May 24th for Amanda's teddy bear picnic, and surprise baby shower for her teacher! The weather was BEAUTIFUL!

Then tuesday the 29th I went with her class to the Pacific Science Center for her class field trip, AGAIN BEAUTIFUL FUN day!!!

Then Yesterday I went with Justins class to Tilliquim Village, I wasn't so sure I wanted to do this trip... but am so GLAD I got picked it was BEAUTIFUL out, and the trip was alot of fun, we hope to go back and enjoy the park this summer! Ok that is my plan I just need to let Steve in on it!!!

Here come some photos! Have a GREAT rest of the week and HELLOOO happy JUNE tomorrow!!!!

DREAMING of a CLEAN scraproom! LOL!

Blog Challenge for
www.memoriesfromscrap.com ~ show your space! (I am showing it clean! Dont want to SCARE anyone away showing it messy!)

Well here is what my Scrappy room USED to look like!! This was about 2 years ago after Steve got it all finished for me and I had everything put away! NOW dont ask! it is all over!! there isnt a clean spot on that table , floor or kids desk!! Seeing this makes me want to clean! Especially for NSD when I want to be able to do some scrappen! Oh dont get me wrong I still scrap I just scrap in a MESS! :)
I have finally gotten some photos for my 5 X 7 frames I bought for this room~ they sit right up on that high shelf! HMMM maybe today I will put them in!
Even if the room isnt this clean~ it is MY PLACE! (and the kids when they can walk on the floor to get to their desk!) It is so much FUN and so PEACEFUL for me to just go in and create! Sometimes I dont even create I just go in and look at my stuff! LOL!!!
Have a GREAT day, and a WONDERFUL weekend! Thanks for stopping by! :)

Layout Share!

Here is a new one of my girl! It was a challenge I did at A Peek Into Yesterday.. using Mustard Moon products! This was the final week of the 3 week challenge.. it was FUN! I had never used this line, or the ledger/crossword papers before~ so it was nice to step out of my scrappy box and try some new things!

This photo is one I altered in photo shop to give it an antiqued look~ the idea was from CK's new Computer Tricks book~ I LOVE this book!!!! I cant wait to try more of the ideas in it! :)

Thanks for stopping by! Have a GREAT day!!

A little Digi FUN!

Ok I got this NEW CK mag ~ I LOVE it! it is called Computer Tricks for scrapbooking! You do a little digi stuff, then you still paper scrap it! So this was add a vintage look to the photo, I am not sure I did it 100% correct, BUT I LOVE the way it turned out!! I am going to have so much fun if I can EVER get my photo shop all figured out!!! LOL!!!

Just wanted to share my digi fun today!

Well today Justin and Steve went to do some errends, and to a magic thing! :) So Amanda and I hung out at home! I worked in the yard, we had a sudden sun break! So out we went! She found some FLOWERS to pick! :) I thanked her for letting me take her photo, she said yeah you took about 1,000 I said honey I only took 12! She said "WHAT why did you take 12! " I guess she would have preferred 1,000 I can do that too!
Happy Sunday! Hope your having a GREAT day, and seeing SPRING pop up around you!
