ILOVE my new camera. It’s a CANON POWERSHOT SD 800 IS. My dh (dear husband) bought it for me for our anniversary back in October. We don’t normally exchange gifts so this was QUITE a surprise! I LOVE it. It’s a point and shoot that is small enough to fit …

My mil gave me this One Year bible for Christmas a few years ago. It’s well worn from the first time I read it all the way through while riding my bike. I plan to do the same thing again this year.

This is the cover on one of my photo albums. It is displayed in my scrapbooking room. You might wonder why I chose this album cover as my picture today. There are many things I LOVE about this album. *The title – Forget Me Not – summarizes why I scrapbook. …

Each year I purchase a new month-at-a-glance calendar. I chose this one back in November because I was DREAMING of the tropics and didn’t think we’d get to go on vacation this year. I thought I could at least pretend I was there while looking at the PALM trees on …

OOur annual counting of the pennies! The kids like to go through all of our change and see how much it adds up to each year. They always hope there’s enough to go do something fun! I’m not sure why they decided to use Emily’s jewelry making organizer for this …
