Scrapbooking and Planning

Well, I finally got the guitar shaped cake pan to make Hayden's b-day cake in a couple of weeks. I looked online at a lot of different places, and finally figured that with shipping, I would come out about the same as just buying a new one. This year his party is at Chick-Fil-A, which is free and has an indoor play area. His August birthday is hard in that way, b/c there are only so many indoor places to have a party and most of those are super expensive. When he gets older, he'll be having more low-key stuff, but for now it's fun to do something bigger for him. It's exciting b/c this year he actually understands that his birthday is coming and we will have a party for him. He is so excited about the guitar cake already just from looking at the cake pan. I can't wait until he sees the actual cake!

In my latest project, I have started trying to catch up on Hayden's scrapbook. I printed about 100 pictures at Wal-Mart the other day, so you can tell how behind I am on it. I finally got everything organized and worked on about 5 or 6 pages today. I am not a real pro at scrapbooking, so mine usually turn out mediocre. I just don't want to spend that much time working on it, nor do I want to spend as much money as it takes to make it look really super nice. I noticed that a couple of the pages I did needed some extra umphhh, so maybe when I'm feeling better tomorrow I can work on it again. I'll get some more pictures posted soon!

I love that we're on the same blogging schedule. You make me feel normal, instead of feeling like the blog-slacker I am.
