Ok, this is the part where I am suppose to tag five other people, there is just one slight problem, I don't know five people with blogs, and the few people that I know have already been tagged.

Digital Scrapbooking

Alright, I spent all day Saturday learning how to scrapbook digitally. Here are a few of the pages I did. (The picture of my grandparents in the last post is one as well.)





The program I have been using is called Digital Scrapbook Memories. My sister in law April designed it. I have put the link to their website up in Links I Like.

Strange thoughts

This is a picture of my grandparents wedding. They have been married for over fifty years, I believe they just recently celebrated their 51st or 52nd anniverary. (Note, I talked to my mom and my grandparents anniversary was on the 20th, and it was their 52nd!!!)



Kraig and I have only been married for just over 7 years. To think about being married for 50 years, is mind blowing. Time flies, but to try and think about 50 years is very crazy.
Anyway, I just thought that I would throw that out there.

Looking for a new car

Well my car is starting to have issues so we really do need a new car. After looking at several different kinds of cars, we thought about getting a new SUV, but with gas prices getting so bad we decided that an SUV wasn't going to work. So after a lot of research we decided to that the Honda Civic is most likely going to be my next car. I hate buying new cars!! Here is a picture of the one that I would like to get, but we will see when the time comes.

Sunset

I took this picture along time ago (while I was still in high school), it is one of my favorite pictures.

My Weekend

Well I has a kind of exciting weekend. Saturday night I went to dinner with a couple of my high school friends Liz and Caren. It was really fun we talked, and joked, and it was almost like years hadn't passed since we had last seen each other. Also because of them, I have now made a promise to my husband, to make Peanut butter cookies (yes Liz, I really gave Kraig the note).

Sunday, my extended family had Family Home Evening. We went to the City Cemetery, and used a GPS to mark the graves of some of my family members. It is kind of odd to think about all the people that came before me, and everything they went through.

Here is a picture of my great grandma's headstone.


This is a picture of the quote on the back of her headstone.


This is my great great grandpa & grandma.


This is my great great great grandpa

I know this one is a little hard to read sorry, the sun was in the way.

Pictures

Alright, I bought Kraig his birthday present yesterday, yes I know it is a month early, but I got it and gave it to him early. I got him a Digtal SLR camera. He has always loved photography, so I figured this would be a really good present for him, and so far he loves it. Here are some of the pictures he has taken, some he has even had fun photo-shoping.

Here is Gabby








Here is Rusty










Last but not least here is a picture that I took with Kraig's old camera that I have now claimed. I was playing around with the black and white settings
