My Family. The reason I haven't scrapped in a LONG time.

It turns out having 3 kids is a huge time suck. The past 2 years have been incredibly rewarding but have severely cramped my scrapbooking style. Now that school has started and all 3 kiddos are in some sort schooling, I actually have time to sit at my desk and let the creativity flow. I have missed working with my paper! Here is my first full layout in a very long time. I am a little rusty and out of touch with what has been going on in the scrapbooking world lately, but I plan to catch up.
