Since my September Take Twelve post, so much has happened. Benjamin is home. Justin came home then left again. Movers came to pack up our belongings. Charlotte is getting potty trained. I still can't believe that Thanksgiving is this Thursday. For the record, I am cooking/ baking nothing this year. I'm lucky to sneak in a shower in the morning before the kids are awake (or finish a shower without having to jump out dripping wet because either Benjamin or Charlotte is crying).
While both of these layouts are "late" for posting for the Ella Blog, I wanted to share them with you and keep up with the challenge. Of all the scrapbooking things I've done this year, this challenge has been one of the most fulfilling. It truly has been a reflection of our crazy life this year.
Here is my October Take 12 Layout.
Digital Supplies: Carina Gardner (Photocuts Vol. 6); Design by Dani (Happily Falling); Liv.E Designs (Needs + Wants Stitches Vol. 1).
On this day, Justin spent the morning with Charlotte at Bates Nut Farm to visit the pumpkin patch. Charlotte had a BLAST! Before Benjamin was born and all this crazy started, Charlotte told me that Daddy was coming home to take her to the pumpkin patch. I would gently remind her that Daddy was still on the ship but would be home by Christmas. Apparently, the joke was on me. :)
And here is the layout for November 12 with Daddy gone again and Ben finally home.
Digital Supplies: Splendid Fiins (Template 7); Glitz Designs (Yours Truly); Jenni Bowlin Studios (Vintage Stick Pins).
Make sure you visit the Ella Blog to see November 12 layouts created by the other Take 12 Team members!
As always, thanks for stopping by!
oh, Van! So much craziness, you're right. Be easy on yourself and take care of those little babies of yours... what a thing to be thankful for that Benjamin came home and Justin got to meet him!! Happy Thanksgiving to you : )
