My Mind's Eye September challenge & Scrapbooksteals.com Pearl #9

Moving is a lot of work. Moving with 2 small children and a household full of stuff seems insurmountable! It has taken me a week to get one scrapbook layout done and that is with half my scrapbooking supplies packed away. Is it sad that I am most stressed about how I am going to get any layouts done during the move? Due to my lack of time I am having to combine challenges. The theme of summer's end from My Mind's Eye and the layout challenge presented by Scrapbooksteals.com, however, made it very easy to do a 2 in 1. I spent way too much time on this layout and I attacked it not as a whole, but in sections. I was so focused on each individual part that I am surprised it turned out to be a pretty cohesive layout.
