Scraplifting is a good thing

I took Elizabeth and Katherine outside on Friday to play with Carson. It was a beautiful day, a little on the cool side, but still nice. As they were playing I realized I needed my camera and I'm glad I went inside to get it. I got some great photos of them playing. Then, Friday night I got a wonderful photo of Annie and her sweet little grin. As I was reviewing the photos, I was bummed that I couldn't put all three on my desktop and then I realized - d'oh! I could do a layout sized for my desktop, save it as a jpg and make it my wallpaper. So...I did just that. Background paper is from Ashley Olson's Fit for a Princess paper pack. You'll see the photos of Elizabeth and Katherine in layouts below. I'm about to start working on the one of Annie and I'll upload it later. Gosh, I love my girls. They are so sweet!!!



I know I've mentioned how much I adore layouts by AuntiePea. Well, I finally got around to lifting one she did of her niece, Ainsely. Of course, it's no where near as awesome as Shawn's original, but I still like it.
