I bought 2 Pumpkins this weekend and put them on either side of the porch. They were so pretty and Fall looking setting there. My husband went out to get the paper this morning and they were gone. He looked all around expecting to find them smashed in the street. Surprise, Surprise, there they were decorating my Daughters house across the street. My Grandson, Son in Law and Daughter were "Pumpkin Swipers"! They laughed and laughed so I made a little wanted poster and put it up in front of their house right by my pumpkins. Guess who is laughing now!

A Fall Memory

My Husband and I were driving through the country one day so I could get some pictures. We came across this field where his cousin farms and I just had to get a picture of this really old tractor that was left in the field. I blended the photo into the background paper which was perfect for the picture. It was a lovely Fall day.

New layouts

I'm back from the Scrapgirl's Convention in Salt Lake City. I had a blast while I was there and really learned a lot in the Classes. Here are some of the layouts I made in class.

I really like how this one turned out. We made silhouettes from a photo and used it in a layout. I used a photo of Layne and Clayton from an Allstar game. I'm looking forward to trying this again.

This layout was supposed to be a really fast one I had to make with one of the layout templates that the instructor provided. I wasn't as fast as I was supposed to be.

Computer Art

This photo was taken by our daughter when we were on vacation. I have so few photos of my husband and I together because I am always behind the camera. I feathered the edges of the photo and it made it blend really nice into the paper. I made this layout to go on a new mouse pad. I love the way it turned out. I've been working with photos on the computer a lot lately and the more I work at it the better I get. I guess the old saying that practice make perfect is really true. Back to my practice because perfect is a long way off.

Friendly

This is one of my favorite Scrapbook pages. I thought this was such a cute picture of my grandson and his cousin. He's at the age where I doesn't like to be hugged in public. He doesn't complain, but you can tell what he is thinking by looking at his face. This Photo always makes me smile.

Summer

I took this picture in May. The Photo is a little blurry but it was windy that day. I love the beginning of summer when everything is green and starting to bloom. Once the Summer heat sets in the blooms vanish. We've had to kill 6 rattlesnakes this year. You really have to watch where you step outside.(Ah, the joys of living in Texas) We moved into this house 2 years ago and the garden is slowly filling out. I add a few more plants each year. Some of the roses were already here.
