A couple of days ago, the weather was so beautiful, so we thought it would be fun to play in the park. The dogs had a blast, and I loved getting some fresh air.
On the way to the park, Hilo wished he could be co-pilot.
They are waiting for us to "chuck it".
I trained them to be photogenic. JK! =)
What’s a girl to do on a beautiful day?! Visit my favorite local scrapbook store, of course! Unfortunately, they are closing next month. I seriously don’t know where I’m going to shop for my supplies now.
Suzy always has My Little Shoebox supplies.
This is "the display". I will miss this thing.
Suzy West and I at Picture Me Perfect.
The weather has been way too hot, so we headed toward the California coast where it’s much cooler. We are so fortunate to live less than an hour away from the beaches, so we decided to hit up Santa Cruz instead of Half Moon Bay this time. We decided to play at the Boardwalk. …and what a beautiful day it was!
Go after 5pm on Tuesdays - Almost everything is $.75! Hot dogs, drinks, and even the rides! Oh, and cheap cotton candy too!
That's me on that ride! NOT! I hate rollercoasters and rides in general. HAHA. It must be my GAD. =)
Playing in the fun house! I'm holding my $.75 drink, wahooo!!!
Garlic fries = DELICIOUS!!
Here's the view of Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk from the SkyGlider.
We decided to take a break and hop on the SkyGlider. I was scared at first, but then I realized it was fun!
…and on a beautiful day, I decided to create a big mess in the family room instead of the scrap room. I had all of my scrap supplies scattered all over the floor, and I cranked out a layout and a mini album!
Scrap Outside the Box is challenging YOU to use coffee filters. Here’s my take on that challenge:
Closeup of title and coffee filters.
My latest mini album of the dogs!
A random page in the mini album.
Isn't this cute?!
Oh, and the August sneak peak of Kraft Girl Kits was posted! I can’t wait to get my hands all over this one.
Today, on this beautiful day, I plan on going more furniture shopping. I also have to return a dress I bought at the mall that I know I’m never going to wear, haha. Did I just say “mall”?! I guess on this beautiful day, I’m going to go girly girl shopping too!
Submit to the journal call. I want to see your work printed and acknowledged!
Enjoy YOUR beautiful day!
Hugs,
sarah.

UM wow… where do I begin with such a huge, GREAT post?!
* ♥ that you wear a sundress to the park… it’s so cute, too!
* Hilo & Maui are always way adorable.
* Very sad about your LSS closing. There’s no Michaels or Archivers around though???
* I would NOT want to go on that ride either, but something tells me that Bryn would. And then… I would have to stand there & pray while she looked down at me & smiled.
* I wouldn’t like the Sky Glider either.
* I’d need more than a 75 cent drink to get on either one of them. Although, since giving birth… I’d probably end up going on both with a fake smile, just to not pass along my fear of heights.
* ♥ the coffee filters LO… will have to try that! And… that mini ROCKS!
* Saw the August KGK sneak on the blog… canNOT wait to see what you do with it!
Have a great weekend!
