So more photos…got a media card reader - woohoo, I can’t tell you how exciting that is for me …anyway, first here’s a photo of Aodhan, who wanted to trim his hair - to look like Johnny Test (cartoon character - heard of him?) - he is unknown here, but we were luckily influenced before we left the States…and Aodhan is so much like this characer with energy and well, looks…here we go:

the before do and newly toothless - ummm, and his brother (entertainment at the Chicago airport - on our way to Deutschland)

and the transformation

and…so some more Germany photos…I’m not sure why I took this one, but it looks kind of cool - this crown was sitting on a patio table in a Biersgarten

approaching a park fountain - the boys are sillouetted in the middle

a cool door near the fountain

and….this has to be my new favorite photo - the boys holding hands as they went trick or treating…they were so excited, and there were so many people - one of our rules was to stick together and look out for each other

…so that’s what I have for now - happy day!

Lots of stuff going on everywhere in the digital world - check out this challenge, too at scrapblog.  Scrap your holiday greeting for a chance to win printed cards of what you create!!

Check out Digital Scrapbooking Magazine for stuff going on, too.

Happy Day!!

I’ve got some new papers that have come out with Fancy Pants - Arctic Chill - very excited about them - check it out here - and here’s a layout I created:

Got this paper pack finished, too - Autumn Rain:

And so I have a few  photos to share of Germany, but these are from my cell phone - need a media card reader to get the camera ones to the computer (not as easy to find as you would think).

Down the street from our hotel - is a toys r us and a mall, just like back home - well, sort of: this one has a grocery store and lots of really good german bread, etc…:

been riding this a lot - since we have no car:

Well, we are moving this weekend into our new place - I’ll post more about how things are and hopefully, post some more photos - including halloween photos of the boys…:)

School Days Mini Kit

Spooky Autumn

And a layout - this was almost a year ago and Liam looks so young:

Hope everyone has a great week - we’re just going through our stuff again and wondering why we have so much of it before we move.

We had a big family celebration - first one ever - was lots of fun:

We’ve been going to games - very hot outside after the storms passed from hurricane Gustav:

Been playing outside:

…even got one of me in there (by Ed) - created a new avatar with it:

…and there’s been colds and coughs going around - there’s always someone sick it seems…so we’ve been keeping busy and loving it, of course (except for the sick part)!  I do hope we can get settled soon - looks like we’ll be moving again though and so it may be another month or so before we’re back to routine.  I’m hoping to post some altered projects, mini albums, and scrapbook pages then - and create some new digital goodies…FP is keeping me busy lately, too - always fun to play with ‘real’ paper….so I’ll post more work stuff and some family updates, too - stay tuned.

And Brother:

This is my favorite photo - I zoomed in on just the boys: goofy Aodhan and Liam looking off…

And another:

But…I do have a lot of projects to finish up and start and hope to have more time to do get things done.

and isn’t this one too cute - the boys loved it - “look they have dinosaurs” - very cool!

So with Ed arriving and school starting soon - it’s back to routines and work.  I’m hoping to work on some more hybrid projects, too.

I hope everyone’s enjoying the summer.
