Back in the Spring (and I use the term “spring” very loosely here, because although it was March, we were slipping and sliding on snow and ice) I spent a couple of days on a scrapbooking retreat.
Well, it’s time to go back again and get some pictures safely into Creative Memories scrapbook albums. This is especially crucial when the store-bought albums purchased 16 years ago (so-called-“quality” albums at the time) have pages that are yellowing. In danger are my pictures from Europe, with baby H-J and his big brothers, and our adventures in Germany, Italy, France, and England. [We lived in Germany from January of 1995 until January of 1998.]
Those are precious memories!
NYC 2010 Spring Break family trip, scrapbooked
So I’m headed back up north to The Middle of Nowhere, in a different facility but just down the road from the previous place pictured here. Hopefully we won’t be dealing with ice and snow again! Three days without outside communication — no phone, no pool, no pets… nor is there internet. It’s all about the quality time spent scrapbooking.
I am looking forward to seeing Bob & Doug at Croptoberfest. 😀
Yes, they plan on coming down from Canada again this weekend (They really are from Canada!) although they probably will not be in costume. 😉
I spent part of this week offline, working on things around home (and working around a headache that would not quit for over 2 days) so I’ll have a lot of catching up to do when I get back home again — besides laundry, of course!
Happy Weekend! 😀
Have fun in your off-line creative time!
where is that snow picture?! I’m totally in the wrong part of the country
PJ, that photo was taken the first weekend of March, about an hour south of the Canadian/Washington State border in Eastern WA. Yes, it is beautiful in the Pacific Northwest!
oh how fun!! at my first job we had a scrapbooking club (as well as a CM consultant who could keep us addicted to the good stuff) – and i was much more willing to put in the time in those days before reliable digital photo albums. i am just so LAZY now – i love love love looking back at my lovingly crafted scrap books, but nevvvvvvvvver actually make them anymore. facebook had better not delete my albums at any point 🙂
