I made Top 3 at Frosted Designs!!

Yay!  Just want to say a huge Thank You to Frosted Designs for choosing my layout for Top 3 for their "Direction" challenge a few weeks ago.  

And here is my layout once again...

Where have I been?? And I found out I am a Top 3 Contender at Getting Scrappy! :-)

Hi everyone!!  Yes... you have seen some posts from me over the last few weeks... thanks to that wonderful "Schedule" option in Blogger... but I really have been on a wonderful vacation with my wonderful family.  (I'm likin' that word today)

Here is where we have been... Priest Lake (at dusk)

With all of these wonderful people...

and here was our 2nd stop... (Crescent Bar on the Columbia River)



With my Mom and Dad!  :-)

It's good to be home... lots of unpacking... kids a little cranky...but thank Gosh Summer is not over yet.

In the meantime... I also learned that one of my Layouts was chosen as a Top 3 Contender over at the Getting Scrappy Challenges for July.  Yay!!  They just started challenges for August.  Go take a stab at it!  Their first one is "Christmas in July."  You can see my chosen layout by clicking on the "Getting Scrappy" badge on my right sidebar.
