I love digital scrapping!

So last night since Justin had taken the girls camping I decided to stay up way too late and catch up on a little scraping...I still need to do a few pages for this month but at least I have started. Remember if you want to read any of the journaling on the page just click on the image and it will appear bigger so that you can read it.

The Happiest Place on Earth!

Malia has been asking for months to go to DISNEYLAND for her birthday, in fact since last time when we went to see Justin's family we went to Disneyland first, they somehow now think that if we are going to visit them then we have to go to Disneyland first. Anyhow the other day I got this idea that it would be fun to surprise the girls and make an early trip for Malia's birthday. I knew Justin couldn't get time off and it didn't take any convincing at all to get my friend Mandi to join me (she has season passes). We had a great time, the best was that the girls didn't know where we were going. We are excited to go back to CA Adventure in the next few weeks and use the 2nd part of our 2fer ticket!

So I guess we can't really be 3 under 3 anymore...and I am beginning to see that there are many out there with more kids than me in a short span of years, how do they do it? So it's finally time for a header update, here are a few of my favorite pictures of the girls from the last few months! I would love a picture of all three of them together, where they are all smiling but I think that is asking for a real MIRACLE!

Justin has been bugging me for awhile to put up his picture with the possum, I hope that it didn't disgust too many of you! And the shoe next to the possum is his...so as you can see the thing was quite large. I personally wouldn't come look at it after he did the deed but he showed me his capture via the pictures. The thing had come to eat the dog food in our backyard so I wasn't too upset that he took care of it as I really don't want my kids to encounter them as they can be quite feisty!

Justin has taken the girls to recycle bottles and metal so I am going to get back to the scrapbook I was trying so hard to finish but never did! Lucky for me, the winkflash sale was extended!
