Echo Park My Little Travelers Layout

When I saw this layout, I knew instantly that I wanted to lift it. Love everything about it! So much so, I'm sure I'll use it for inspiration again in the future!

I've had this adorable Little Man line by Echo Park for a bit now and thought it perfect for these pictures of the kiddos in their car seats. They are such good travelers (most of the time). We tend to go a lot and since moving 35-40 min. from our hometown, we seem to spend a lot more time in the car. They were just too darn cute to not take pictures of this particular day. No, I wasn't driving, Chris was.
This line was SO much fun to work with! Its super busy, but I like it! :-)

I LOVE the alpha stickers that come with the kit. I inked everything with a dark color.
The banner in just orange wasn't doing it for me. So I layered it a couple times.
I fussy cut a cloud, then traced and cut it out of the blue and white polka dot paper.
I had so much fun with this layout! Thank you April for your inspiration!

I'm posting it over at The Paper Variety for their photo challenge this week too! LOVE the colors in the photo shared. Go check it out! That photo is FULL of great ideas!

We were invited to a bbq on the 4th of July. Pinterest can be a bad thing for me. I found these and knew I had to make them for the bbq:
Strawberry Margarita Jello Shots! Man were they delicious and didn't last long at the bbq we went too! Not the best of pictures...but what can I say, I'm not a good photographer. ;-)

I also made some of these:
The kids LOVED the chocolate dipped pretzels.

And finally these:
Our friends have the PERFECT house for summer bbq's.
Maddy had fun in the pool. Peyton fell in. It was quite funny, but he didn't think so.
Above, the kids were not scared of the rubber fishy (like the rubber ducky) war that was going on! Those fish were whizzing. Peyton still has a bruise where he got tagged with one! :-0 He didn't cry when he got hit though and it didn't stop him from continuing to gather the fish that escaped the pool!

Yes...a few hours of sun and play and we come home and do this:
Okay, WE didn't, Chris, Peyton and Maddy did!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
