together forever

Sienna found an old hat that doesn't fit anymore. It just kinda sits there on top of her head. :)
Feeding baby Dora. Sienna is doing lot more imaginative play nowadays. Fun to watch.

Sienna always wears her sunglasses upside down. :)

I guess no one liked my previous layout atleast according to the "no comments". :) Oh well, can't win them all. :)

I did this one last night. Layout #22.

As usual, click on the picture to see it better.

Jay surprised us yesterday by coming back from work in the morning. The order hadn't arrived so he didn't have to work. The weeds and mess is gone. It was fun to do yard work together. Sienna was such a good helper. She had huge gardening gloves on and put cleared up weeds etc in bags. I sure like our poppies but they do keep spreading to places you don't want them to. I need to remember to pick up the seed pods before they open. We got rid of our chives as they were taking over the flowerbed. I wasn't using them even though I thought I would. They were leftovers from the previous home owner. Who, by the way, didn't leave much when they moved. When we bought the house there was tons of beautiful flowers etc. They took 90% of them with them when they moved. We were left with yucky looking flower beds. We've been slowly fixing things up. Got rid off ugly rose bushes at the back, changed pretty much everything in the front, etc. Still more work to do. Little by little. Gardening is expensive.

On Monday I bought some much needed clothes. Turns out lavender color looks good on me. I probably never would have even tried that color on but I got a lavender colored t-shirt as a gift and realized it's a nice color for me. So I bought a lavender button up shirt too. Sweet to add some color to your life. Jay joked that it's good to see me in some other color than black. :) I still need to find a neutral color skirt for church. The kind that goes with most of my tops. I sure don't enjoy clothes shopping. Still wishing for that personal shopper.

Well, I'm curious to see if this new layout will get any comments. :) I know that my style is so different from people over here atleast. Much more simple. Maybe that's what Creative Keepsakes people will think too: too simple, not full of trinkets and stuff. :)

  4. Aivan ihania nämä uudet sivusi!! Tykkäsin tuosta edellisestäkin vaikka en komentoinut. Blogger on tökkinyt minulle muutaman päivän. Mutta tämä on edellisistä poikkeava kauniilla turkoosilla värillä. Ja aivan ihana kuvan leikkaus.

    Meillä on samanlainen hellehattu, myöskin jo pieni, ja aina aurinkolasit väärin päin. Ihana Dora, meillä ei tuollaisia myydäkään.
