Name That Movie Monday

Okay kids, in an attempt to entertain myself, I came up with this game. See if you can name that movie quote.

"It fit so nice, he said I could keep it."

Good luck!

More Scrapbook Pages

Here we are in Monterey. Dave was with me too, but it look like he didn't make the final cut. Are these pages taking longer to download than a normal picture? I wanted to thank again the Wedekings, Lambs, and Forsyths for helping with the kids so that we could enjoy a weekend away.

Scrapbook Pages

I have been doing a simple scrapbook since Dave and I have been dating. We like to fill it with pictures and journalling and keep the costs down by using plain white paper. I thought I would try to post what I have been working on lately. Blogging is the new novelty and posting my pages will give me an incentive to get some more done. As you can see, we are a couple of years behind. My church service has eaten up most of my extra time and energy, but I am determined to get caught up. Dave does the layout for me and I decorate the pages. Isn't that nice?

I case you can't read that. The boys and I took a train ride to Fillmore to a fish hatchery as a field trip when I was homeschooling Andrew.
