Have you heard?
If you haven't, you might want to go here to check it out! Ok so I have to say that I am so excited to be able to teach at an event with Teresa there..... Susan and I will both be teaching and I am so looking forward to it! Can't wait! So Thank you to Lori at the scrapyard for making it possible for us to do it! So it has been a little while since I posted and  I don't think I even posted last weeks layout but it has been busy! We were out in Canmore last week at a scrapbook retreat that was absolutely fabulous! Thanks to Lori again for having me teach there! I totally enjoyed it!
Here is layout #19 for this week, I can' hardly believe that we are at 19 already, one more then the album! Can't wait for that!

Ok so I know that this photo isn't super recent but because of the Teresa Collins event being revealed this past week and because of how excited I am to be teaching at it I wanted to tell that story for this week.....
Here is layout #18 as well just so that everyone has access to it if you haven't done all your layouts.... Not sure how many of you asked me If I would teach that little frame class.... but I am teaching it at the Scrapyard so if you are interested just give them a call!

Have a fabulous weekend everyone,

Lynn

Crazy life this is but by the time the dude finally gets out of bed he is off to work.... not quite that bad but almost.....then when he has time I don't and...... oh it doesn't even really matter but I did get a few of him at least.... I was always supposed to do grad photos and it never worked out... will have to do it sometime i hope....
I also wanted to share some randoms from this week that I love and yes will most likely use on future layouts.....

 Our little Mr. Kade and his new glasses! They are so adorable and he does so good to keep them on....i think he is just so darn excited that he can see!

 This photo was taken so fast and I didn't even really know what It would look like.... technically it probably isn't perfect( wish Kianna was more in focus!) but I just love it! Love that the girls are inside and they are so excited to see Kade outside! so sweet!

 Grandpa and One of the kidlets.... Him and Ella were planting a tree for  me... well Ella was actually just muckin in the dirt!

Layout #12....
I know! Hard to believe right? I am feeling like life is just whizzing by in a bit of a blur right now.... can't believe it! Oh well it is what it is I guess! Now that fall is fast appproaching I have so much to do before winter sets in.... clean up my house, basement, clean up my yard... and I found a beautiful little thing to do in my backyard and thought Rob would want to get right on that before winter....
Here is how that conversation went....
Me: Rob I found the coolest thing to do in the backyard... Just need a few supplies and we could do it right away....
Rob: Like right now?
Me: Well not right now but maybe in the next week or two?
Rob: Sounds like more of a spring project to me....
Me: well we didn't really do anything in the yard this year!
Rob: well let me see what it looks like....
Me: (with my inside voice) Eeeeek! Maybe he WILL do it! He never says no.... well not to stuff like that anyways!

so I will let you all know how that works out! lol
Anyway layout #11....

Love this picture of manda and Shawn... this was our day at Calaway park! So fun.... brought back so many memories of taking the kids ther when they were little! Miss those days a lot!
Anyways everyone have a fabulous weekend!

Lynn

Back into the swing of things....
well almost anyways.... i have to get a better routine going so that I can get as much done in one day as I possibly can.... that will make me happy!
How is everyone else doing at settling into a brand new routine? I really don't like routine all that much, especially come summertime, I love that most about summer....no routine!
Summer almost seems like a bit of a memory already and it is still so beautiful outside! The mornings and evenings are so much cooler already though.....
I am happy though to be back to classes and am so excited to see everyone again, plus I Love the whole creative thing that I have goin on.... Love that a lot! Wanted to share layout #11.... Hard to believe but we are now more than halfway on our albums... soon we will be putting them together!

also have to share a few of the kids... a blog post just wouldn't be the same without a couple pics!

until next time my friends....

Lynn

Almost the end of the sweet summer days....

so I am really looking forward to getting back to seeing all my girls from class, but it is also kind of bittersweet.... we all know that fall will be upon us in no time and it really is kind of sad... you gotta love summer.... yes I have been taking advantage of it to the fullest... I have been doing only the 'bare' minimum in my house... which means as little as possible.... but somehow because it is summer it is alright! Life as I know it will change....
as of next week Shar is back in school so that means that between Manda and myself we will take care of little Miss Ella while she is at school!
I know this will be hard on her but I am so excited for her to start this new chapter in her life.... move on to so much more.... be a  better person because of what she is willing for..... as hard as it will be, it will all be worth it! Just wanted to share a photo and of course the layout.... I promise to send the details to the scrapyard tomorrow!

Little Miss Ella Belle.... we did a little photo shoot of the kids today... to see more
check this out.... http://lynnthunephotography.blogspot.com

Love this layout.... love, love, love the paper from Authentique!
Enjoy the next few days of sunshine!
Until the next time....
