Wednesday...what a day.

Does it feel to anyone else that the week is just dragging? Sometimes, by Wednesday, it feels like I have lived two weeks, when in reality it's been 3 days.

This is one of those weeks. I don't really know why, it just feels like a really long week.

We went to the library yesterday. I love the library. All the books...ahhhhhh. Our library was recently upgraded and it has been really nice. They added radio chips to speed check-out and everything. It was all great, until yesterday. Yesterday, I couldn't get out of the library. Everytime I tried to walk out the alarm started going off. I had to pat myself down and take the stroller apart to prove that I wasn't trying to steal a book or something. Talk about embarrassing.

What's worse? When the librarian got up and carried my book bag through the alarm did NOT go off. It didn't go off when I walked through sans books. Or when the kids came through.

Must've been my magnetic personality.

It's a burden.

And now - today's freebie: Grungy Boy Elements. Enjoy!

Recovery is Brutal.

I am officially a race junkie. I had so much fun on Saturday! It was so neat to watch the runner's cross the finish line and cheer for them. The first place in the 5k went to a runner that finished in 15 minutes! That's 5 minutes per mile. Wow!

I can hardly wait for the next race.

In the meantime I have more kits to make. Today is the Grungy Boy Collection Papers. They were inspired by an outfit that I saw. I fell in love with the colors. So me. I love jewel tones in general.

Happy scrapping everyone!

A Little Bit About the Girls

I was inspired by my laundry for this kit. I don't think you will often hear that.

I have two girls. They are very girly. They loves princesses, butterflies, flowers, and dirt. At least, that is what their clothes tell me. They're girly, and.....well, they're grungy. Blown out knees in their sparkly jeans. Grass stains on their flowery elbows.

As I was pretreating yet another stain I was musing to myself about just how grungy my girls are and the lightbulb came on! I need a grungy girl kit. So I made one, and I let my girls pick their favorite colors. And they approved every paper design.

I hope you enjoy it. I'll post the elements tomorrow, and I hope to have a grungy boy kit ready to go on Monday!
