Tree Album

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We sure did. We were able to spend it with both my family and Chris's. My parents took off the next day so we ended up with all the leftovers. Boy did that bum me out! lol...
I've been trying to work hard on getting a few Christmas gifts made. My grandparents are so hard to buy for. So I have resorted to making them mini albums and giving them pictures of the kiddos! I've seen layered tree albums on line and thought they were pretty cute! So when I saw Christmas Tree Mini Albums in the dollar section at Michael's I was pretty darn excited. I cut each page to a different length to give it the layered look. I used some yummy MME paper and odds and ends of embellies that I had. I wanted to keep it fairly simple. If you click on the picture it should make the picture larger. Sorry for the dark pictures.





Peyton loves to wear his hats that Mema (my mom) knitted him. He rarely leaves the house without one on. He's also been wearing his sunglasses a lot lately, even inside! I think he is so darn cute! Of course I'm not biased right?
Miss Madeline is getting quite active. I'm a little scared about having a Christmas Tree this year. haha! She was so cute playing with this toy. She kept looking in the mirror, trying to give herself kisses and touch her image in the mirror.

Wow, a dollar, that rocks! Awesome job, the papers you chose are great! as for knotting try the stitch and bitch books, they are a riot to read and easy to follow and have the hippest patterns, if you like crochet the S&B lady wrote a book called the happy hooker, oh I do love a good pun!
