Whew, October is over and it sure was a busy month! We had a really fun Halloween (oh, and thanks for all the nice comments about the face painting on my daughter Leah. No, I didn’t actually paint it. She had it done by a professional face painter at a party). We also celebrated Maya’s first birthday with our own neighborhood pumpkin painting party and I finally finished this book(boy, was it a hefty one).
Some time was spent at the local cider mill and we even attempted a corn maze. All in all, a lot of our October was spent outdoors and it was a great way for us to have some quality family time together.
In the evenings (and if Maya takes a long afternoon nap) I have been working a lot on some new digital scrapbook pages. I am really enjoying scrapbooking digitally (love the fact that you can re-use digital paper and elements and that there is no mess involved)! I did this quick page just last night. You can see all of us out trick-or-treating with my girlfriend Debbie and her daughter.
I even subscribed recently to a national digital scrapbooking magazine and on a whim entered two layouts for possible publication. Imagine my surprise to find out via e-mail yesterday that one of my layouts has been chosen for publication in the magazine this spring! I can’t give out any more details right now, but I will definitely let you know how to find my layout once it is printed.
How was your October?
Those scrapbook pages look great! I’m glad you had a good October. Mine was long and I’m happy to be in November now.
Oh, and congratulations on the magazine deal! That’s great!
That’s such a sweet picture of your family! Congratulations on having your layout selected. What an honor!
Congrats on the layout being chosen for publication! Wow!
Congratulations on having your layout chosen for publication!
Great photos and congrats on the magazine layout!
Congrats on having your layout selected for publication!! I haven’t gotten into traditional scrapbooking primarily for the reasons you state (mess, etc.) but I could see myself doing the digital thing. Said by the person who still has 29 rolls of film from her Mediterranean trip in 2002 to put into albums!!
Congratulations on the magazine submission. How exciting! Can’t wait to see it!
Very cool – congrats! What…you mean October is over?!
Such great photos! I love all the digital scrapbooking pages you make.
Congratulations on the magazine submission! That’s so cool
Congratulations! It looks great. I can’t wait to see it in the magazine. I love the picture of the corn field with the sun behind the stalks. Very nice. It looks pretty cold there. I think it might snow here soon… finally! Anyway, you all look very happy.
