I was walking around the house doing what I normally do, and I found Maui in the family room. I got this look from her, and it looked something like this:

"Can we please go on a walk!?"

Since it wasn’t raining today, I took her on her daily walk. We walked further than usual today and at a faster pace. Once we got to the local park, I let her run off leash like a hooligan. On the way home, she was so tired that she would not stop panting. I basically had to drag her home. As soon as we got home, I swear she drank like a gallon of water, haha! Anyway, I went to get myself a glass of water, and when I turned around to check up on her, this is what I saw:

Here's one sleepy and tired schnauzer after a walk.

...and within minutes, she was snoring!

Since I had not scrapped in a couple of days, I decided to give it a go. Seriously, my mojo went away or something! If you find it, please send it my way, haha! Anyway, I completed two layouts.

The first layout I finished was done for a challenge over at Scrapping Across the Universe. The challenge caught my eye, so I decided to scrap a layout with a picture from way back in the day. Here’s one I completed about my friendship with my mother:

The second layout was done just for fun. While digging through old pictures, I found a picture of me on my very first bike. I hadn’t thought about this bike until I saw this picture. Oh, how I’ll always love that little red bike! I love the gears on this layout; I thought they were a cute addition to the overall layout.
