Recently, I’ve been really into the song, “Closer To Love” by Mat Kearney.
Cause you are all that I’ve waited for all of my life / We’re gonna get there / You are all that I’ve waited all of my life
I guess it’s a fun song because it’s catchy.
I haven’t really gotten a lot of scrapping done recently.
This weekend, we had ANOTHER housewarming party with mostly Gloria’s family this time. Her cousin and husband flew up to visit, so they’re staying with us. …and I’m playing hostess with the mostest, again. hehe.
I didn’t get to snap a lot of photos because I was busy conversing, lol. Here are some to share:
Okay, isn't she cute?! She's such a sweetheart! This is Gloria's niece.
...and so is her older sister! They totally grew since the last time I saw them!
Gloria's friend, Alex, wants to kidnap Hilo!
"Are you here for the housewarming?! If so, come right in!"
Last week, we went to go visit my parents to tell them the good news.
Honestly, it's perfect to me.
Here's the top view.
Oh, isnt it gorgeous?! Its bigger and prettier than what I expected.
Here’s the latest from Pink Sketches; I love the simplicity of this sketch because it can be used in so many different ways.
…and if you are interested, Kelli is still looking for some new designers to add to the Pink Sketches Design Team. If you are interested in joining us, please visit Pink Sketches for more details on how to apply!
The second layout is not something I would normally scrap, but I still liked how it came out. I totally love this paper line from Prima. I think the doodling design is adorable!
Enjoy the week ahead of you! I know I will.
Hugs,
sarah.

I forget to tell you that your ring is G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S. I’m assuming it’s a Tacori since you have a blinkie on your side bar?
