Can't Wait for Fall

Congratulations to Russell for graduating! This is my favorite picture of the event (well, other than the one where we are kissing!)

I can't wait for fall to come for several reasons. I'd like a little bit cooler weather. I can't wait for there to be snow on the tops of the mountains. I'm not saying I want it to snow on the ground yet, just in the mountains. I can't wait for the leaves to change, I thought about it today and realized how much I love to walk or drive around and see all the pretty colors of the leaves. And.....although I'm not a huge fan of school, fall time brings school and I need a break from working 30 hours a week. A little school in the mix will help I think.

What A Crop

We had an employee crop last night at work. For the first time in months I feel like I'm back in my scrapbooking groove and I'm excited to do more. Now I just have to find the time!

I got a few things done last night, including the page above. I had a vision for this page a few weeks ago while laying in bed at 3am not being able to sleep. I tend to come up with great ideas at weird times. Anyway, I've been so excited to make my button bracket for this page for at least two weeks and it turned out great! The other half of the page has facts about our dating period like how many days before our first kiss, etc.

I also made a page celebrating our trip to Build-a-Bear with pictures of the Pirate bear I made Russell. Our store just got a ton of really cool pirate things so I couldn't resist. And finally I made a graduation card for Russell since he graduates on Friday, and a wall hanging out of a clear acrylic stamp block that has a wedding pictures and some really cute rubon's with the date we got married. You'll have to visit us to see it!

Anyway, I better get to work.
