I really don't think I have, I know I meant to and I know I started posting some the other day but I don't think I got around to actually posting them lol. Ok so I will show you all the layouts I have done so far this month, that would be a grand total of 5 yes you read that right 5. I really suck this month, I have 3 more in the work in progress file but even if I finish them that's only 8 altogether.
*sigh* it's not like I have a shortage of new photos or kits to play with. Just off the top of my head I know I haven't scrapped anything from out trip to chessington, haven't scrapped Lukas's 1st day of school, haven't scrapped the new photos Mark took of Ruby when she came to visit. It's depressing that I just don't feel well enough to sit down and scrap. But anyway enough moaning I need to get on with showing you the ones I actually have done lol.
First up was a wedding layout, not done for any challenge I just liked the template lol.

Journalling reads: My wedding day should have been the happiest day of my life. We shouldn’t have been able to stop smiling, yet here we stood putting on a brave face for the camera. Me and Nan both feeling sad because yet another day was being ruined by my mum, this time because she wasn’t there. I tried to enjoy my wedding day, but it was hard to try and keep smiling, when all I felt like doing was crying, because my family were not there to celebrate with us.

Journalling reads: You were on your way downstairs, as I noticed that someone had left my camera on the stairs. As I bent down to pick it up, you rapidly turned around and raced back upstairs. As you giggled I chased after you and managed to snap this picture. I guess that is one way of telling me that you don’t want your photograph taken today Lukas.

Journalling reads: When mummy told you that we were going to visit the Oxford University Museum of Natural History you really weren’t very enthusiastic about the idea. You couldn’t understand what could possibly be interesting about seeing “old stuff”. But since it was one of the many things mummy had planned but not not been able to do with you during the school holidays, mummy was insistant that we do something educational on our last day out as a family before you went back to school. First we went to the fair and you got to see all the lights and ride on some rides. When mummy couldn’t stand the loud music, the flashing lights, the smoke and the crowds anymore then we walked down to the museum. You moaned and whinged every step of the way. In the end we made a deal, if you shut up moaning and went to the museum we would go back to the fair. So you stopped moaning and started asking about what was in the museum. We told you to wait and see and reassured you that you would like it. When we got to the museum, you saw that the big heavy wooden doors were shut. Daddy helped you to turn the handle and open them. As you stepped inside you were surprised to see that there were lots of people inside. You held daddy’s hand and walked inside towards the exhibits. The first one was rocks and fossils. While mummy was taking some photographs, you and daddy wondered around for a while. You were really unsure about touching anything, but with a little prompting you did gather enough courage to stroke the stuffed animals and touch the fossils. Then you saw it - the interative miscroscope in the geology section. and your little eyes lit up, but although you were itching to touch it you were afraid you would get in trouble. We reassured you that you could touch it and still you refused. Until daddy had a go, and you couldn’t resist the temptation anymore. You had a great time spinning the sample tray, pushing the buttons, zooming in closer and closer the displayon the screen was literally a blur. You couldn’t believe you luck that there were buttons, that made stuff happen and you were allowed to sit down and play with them! You had a lot of fun doing this and were fascinated by all the different rocks and how they changed as you zoomed in closer and closer. When we said it was time to go you moaned and asked when we could come back. I only had one thing to say to you “I told you that you would like it here”. I just couldn’t resist that little bit of mummy pride at knowing I was right, and you had really enjoyed our educational trip.

Journalling reads: You had a great time playing splat the rat at the school summer fete. It was really hard for you to coordinate swinging the bat and hitting the “rat” but eventually you got it. I was so proud that you kept trying and didn’t give up until you did it. 5th July 2008.
