Grand Baby Jackpot

These pictures were taken right after the first grandchild arrived on the scene in 2014 with three other to follow him.

The title is from a swap.

Charlie Mae

Charlie was our fourth grandchild born in 2014 and now I am one short of a dozen. Charlie is busy, bright, and brave.

My husband is holding her in the second picture, but he has asked that I not put his picture online.

We have been so blessed with grandchildren. I think this season of my life is the best.

1st Christmas

These pictures of Aria were taken on Christmas Day in 2014. She was the second of our grandbabies born that year. She is a calm baby who will let you know if you annoy her. She has the cutest personality and babbles so sweetly.

Grandma's Sweetie

This is Vincent - the first of four babies to join our family in 2014. He is a happy baby who makes me happy just having him around. He is talking pretty well and has a deep boy voice. I love when he says, "Help you," meaning he wants me to help him with something.

Blue Star Girl

My son is in the USAF and was deployed to Qatar from March to November 2014, so his daughter became a blue star kid. He is stationed an ocean away from her, so she only gets to see him once or twice a year.

She is my little American Hero because she gives up a lot of time with her dad.

I am once again on a spending freeze with the exception of adhesive.

Thankful for Scrapping

I had a bit of time to scrapbook before I gear up for finals.

This is my son and grandson playing video games. I left the red eye in to make them look a bit more freaky. I used a couple of cool tags from clothing on this one. The paper is from a yard sale.

This is my cute granddaughter and my grandson. She is so excited to be a big sister. There are a lot of different paper lines on here, but I am a bad scrapper and don't keep track because I don't really care what brand something is. If I like it, I'll use it and mix it with other lines.

 These sticker letters are from Hobby Lobby. They are by the Paper studio I believe. I really like them and think I will go grab another pack. They are foam and glittered.

 This is for Vincent's book. I love these two children so very much.

I picked up the striped paper at a yard sale. The blue was on one side the stripe on the other. I don't know what brand it was.

 A mixture of stuff from many lines.

 The same letter stickers from above.

General Conference Scrapping

I love to scrap while watching General Conference. It keeps me upright and I don't doze. I completed five layouts during October's conference. Yes, I scrap slowly.


This is Kalena with one of the new grandbabies that came last year.

The next three layouts are from 2007 - the kids were so little. For Matt:

For Aliese

For Isaac

I found these old pictures of Caitie and her boyfriend, Nathan, (who is now her husband) on her 17th Birthday. They looks so young.
