weekend away

I had a wonderful weekend away at Camp Perkins! It was so refreshing to spend the weekend in God's beautiful creation. You can't be up there and not just feel His presence. We got up there Friday afternoon after stopping in Fairfield for burgers at The Wrangler. I just wish I would have seen they had a veggie burger on the menu before I ordered. Oh well, it was still tasty! I did some digital scrapbooking, got a massage, went snowshoeing, night luging, watched some movies, did a foot spa and hand wax (creepy, but awesome) and relaxed. Here are a few pictures from my cell phone (gotta love the retro cam app) of the weekend. Today's been rough, it's hard to go back to real-life after a little vacay. Heather posted her photos from this weekend HERE, be sure to check them out too!

Everyday Display

My mom has been a Creative Memories consultant for 16 years. So when Heather, Jenny and I needed baby shower and wedding presents for our friends Dani and Laura at the end of May, we decided to give them Creative Memories' Everyday Display Boards. Heather and I spent about an hour one afternoon making them before our trip. They were super fast and fun to put together! It was such a meaningful gift to give on two special occasions.

My parents gave Heather and I each display board when we graduated college in 2007. I absolutely love mine! I wish I had taken a picture to post on here too (duh!). I love changing it up every couple months with new pictures. With Creative Memories Digital Scrapbooking, you can order a 12 x 12 page print and just slip it in.
