A little bit of the holidays...

This year was a little different as this was our first year with out Braxton at home for the holidays.  I was a bit sad, but the girls still took the traditional tree photos without him.

This first layout is based on a great sketch by Becky Fleck from the Pagemaps blog. 

I used papers from Bo Bunny's Father Christmas line.  

 I loved these papers so much I did a second layout featuring them and some embellishments from Theresa Collins new Christmas line.  

Thanks for looking!

Happy New Year!!!

Here is a photo of the girls from our cruise. We left San Diego on New Years Eve!!  We spent lots of time on deck, watching shows, eating and watching whales swim along side the ship(it is their migration time and we followed their path near Cabo San Lucas)

Our first stop was Puerto Vallarta.  The girls and I spent the first day riding horses to a waterfall, snorkeling and just sitting on a private beach. This required lots of bumpy boat rides to get us to each of these places, but it was worth it!

Our second day in Puerto Vallarta, the girls and I went zip lining in the mountains. 

The next day was a stop in Cabo...we were pretty tired by then so only Juliet and I went ashore for some shopping and some yummy nachos!

It was a nice break from the real world.  No internet for 7 days...
