All Star Music

A page for our Disney album...


Journal reads:
Our Disney trips seem to have come full circle. The very first time we came to WDW as a family was in 2003 and we stayed at All Star Music. Gramma and Papa came with us that year so they could experience the magic with you. Gramma was so excited to stay in the "country" themed part of of the hotel, but it proved to be too far of a walk to the main entrance so we settled on the "calypso" buildings that year. This time we were back at All Star Music and were placed in the country buildings. Standing next to the gigantic cowboy boots we couldn't help but think of her and feel her spirit smiling down on us.



I used Laura's new Extraordinary Friends kit. You can find it in Laura Burger's Store at Gotta Pixel!

One Little Word

Scrapping has always been sort of therapy for me, an escape, a creative outlet. This year...it will help me heal. I'm sure you have heard about the "One Little Word" Challenge for the New Year. People have been doing this for years and I'm jumping on the bandwagon because I think if I have an album at the end of this year surrounding my OLW...it truly will help me "HEAL."

Obviously, this will be based on the loss of my parents in an effort to remember them, cherish our memories...but most of all start recovering from loss. Here is my first page for that album..."Missing You"





I used Laura's new Miss You Collab with Amy Teets. You can find them in Laura Burger's Store at Pickleberry Pop!

Love You

A page for my little guy...a few things I want him always to remember...



Journal reads: I know, even at 10 you have heard these things before, but they are things that you need to carry with your forever. Remember to always be kind. Lead by example. Treat others as you would like to be treated. Be still and listen. Just because something is true does not give you the right to say it. You will always need your Mother. Believe in yourself, just be yourself. What you give will return to you. You can achieve anything you set your mind to. You will always be loved.

Special Lady

Just one of the most beautiful people I know :)



Journal reads:
Grandma Carmella has been as much a Grandma to us since we were born. She is my Uncle Danny’s Mother and at 98 years old she is still as sharp as a tack and is probably the strongest and most loving woman I know. I can only hope to live as full and happy a life as she has. I will always have a very special place in my heart for this very special lady. photo 10-2009 ~ journal 12-2011

One Year Without You

Well, this month marks the anniversary of the day my life as I know it changed forever. My Mom died on December 12, 2010 and I work everyday on trying to find my new "normal". I know this process takes time but I've found some comfort in my scrapping and journal. Looking forward to a brand new year and a fresh start.
