Savannah Scrapbooking

Ready for more???

Let's take a peek-e-poo at some more of Kristine's 'sports' layouts shall we? 

First, we have the fun family sport of 'limbo'... 

 

This one's a personal fave of mine... simply because of the last pic on the right. (Yep, that's Kristine busting her booty after trying to limbo a little too low... hee hee.)

And then there's

 

I imagine that big red circle is going to eventually have some journaling in it... probably explaining how much she loves Teddy for being such a super great Dad/Stepdad/role model to all of their boys, taking them on bike riding adventures and such.  Yes, let's imagine that's what it's going to say. 

And of course who can overlook the age-old sport of Peacock Hunting...

 

I'm sure the aristocrats used to do this right? (No... I know they didn't... it was probably more like the Aborigines or someone...) Either way, the boys have embraced this sport of champions as you can see in the photos.

Ah, three more layouts for your viewing pleasure.  I'll have to rustle up some more for more show and tell soon. Who knows, maybe I'll even have a layout to share... sigh... one day. ;)

to stand on the mountain top (or my kitchen chair, let's not get technical here) and shout...

I PASSED THE SOCIAL SCIENCE GACE TEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOWOWOOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!! 

I'd already passed the Language Arts certification exam, but still wanted/needed to pass the Social Science one to be certified in both of my Masters concentration areas.

However, I was kinda nervous because with questions like: "What is the primary economy of New Zealand" and "What do Europe's natural resources mean for its future?" I was worried that I may not have passed.

But I DID!!!!!!

Phew... whatta RELIEF!

Now that we've celebrated and done a little happy dance, let's cruise through a few more of Kristines layouts shall we?

Today, since I'm so freakin' happy, we shall explore the intriguing area of Kristine's life known as LOVE...

 

...aw, she loves her boys...

 

...and she loves her man...

 

...and sometimes she loves furry little critters...

 

...and apparently this duck hat...

 

Just wait... tomorrow we'll be exploring more extreme sports... how exciting! ;)

Show and tell...

Hey looky here... the blog that seemingly NEVER talks about scrapbooking anymore is about to actually have... (insert drumroll)...

Scrapbook layouts to share!!!

Okay, they're not mine. In fact, after my less than stellar scrapping accomplishments the other night when K and S were over here, I only  have one layout (still waiting for journaling) completed. I blame Sid... that's all I'm sayin'... well, and some REALLY big plastic cups.

Anyhoo... since I'm lacking in the scrap-to-share department, I thought I'd bust out some of Kristine's layouts.  It's a great opportunity to share some boy layouts since you don't get to see many of those around here, right? But don't worry scrappers of girls, you're not gonna get a bunch of hum drum testosterone filled pages from Kristine... oh no. Her little Brady Bunch is quite diverse... just wait and see.

For example, the boys are into more, um, nontraditional sports...

Like egg wars...

 

... and tramp-nastics...

 

.. and of course we can't forget the extreme sport of trying to run over your brother with a scooter...

 

Which is probably why she made this layout...

 

... she's thankful that they haven't been maimed or mutilated! ;)

I've got LOADS more to share, so stay tuned for more great stuff tomorrow!

Mammoth or mutant??

Dude... are these supposed to get this big?

 

(The sunflower, not the kid... I'm pretty sure she's growing at a proper pace.)

;)

Bambiliciousness...

So here's the thing, in the grand scheme of cuteness and joy I'm gonna have to rank little baby spotted fawns right up there with bunnies, chicks, and tiny little infant alligators (okay, so what if I like alligators... don't judge me.)

That being said, you can imagine the completely adorable moment we all had the other day when this little fella (not to be confused with filet) came scampering out of the woods in our backyard...

Quick, let's say it together... 'aaaaaaawwwwwwwwww...."

(Mia, you may want to hide Sally's eyes.)

And then we realized that he was with his big brother...

 

...aaaaawwwwww....

Uh oh... moment of confusion and awkwardness coming up...

 

"Hey little bro, I'm NOT your mommy!"

Oops.

Wait, here's Mommy over in the bushes getting a back scratch from big bro number two...

 

Isn't that the COOLEST???  We've got tons of muscadines growing all along the edge of the woods and this little family thinks we're the salad bar at Ruby Tuesday or somethin'.

And what happens when the sun goes down? Well, last night I caught a glimpse of something moving outside on the neighbors' lawn and lo and behold there they were again munching away on the pretty green grass.

This of course got Big Dave all hot and bothered and he turned into mister stealth bomber dude, grabbed my camera and a flashlight and snuck out the front door.  I stood, watching out the window as he crept closer and closer to the herd. (This time there were four adults, and no baby... past her bedtime I guess.)

Big Dave kept up his slow, steady pace until he was less than 30 feet from them...

 

 

I was kind of hoping that one would freak out and attack Big Dave (just a little) so I'd have a really exciting story to tell, kinda like me and the slip n slide incident.  But alas, they just stared at him...

 

They finally got tired of him and skipped into the woods, but wowzers was it super exciting to see him get that close.  Yes, there is definitely some bambiliciousness goin' on around here!

**Disclaimer** Don't worry, Big Dave can't shoot our bambies out here because even though we have woods, we are definitely still in the Savannah city limits.  Phew!

School stuff... (Ignore unless you want to see my 'Reader in Me' Powerpoint)

Oh brother...

Who does she think she's foolin'?

 

Um, sweetheart your arse is hangin' out.

 

Uh oh, she's on to me...

   Hey Trixie!

Another GREAT 4th of July holiday...

Oh man, once again the Danfords had a mawwwwvelous vacation at Tybee Island for the 4th of July.  Tybee is my kinda trip...

There's the dolphins...

 

 

...and the sunsets...

 

...and the beach bums...

 

...and dinner at Stingrays (our favorite place!)

 

...and hangin' with friends while waiting for the fireworks to start...

 

 

...and then there's the fireworks... LOVE!!

 

 

...and of course spending quality time with my boy...

...heck Miss Priss and I even found sharks teeth, a small miracle no doubt.  And we successfully stalked Miley Cyrus and got an upclose moment with her... unfortunately it was 11:30 at night and my camera refused to take a proper photo in the dark, so I haven't much proof. Trust me, I've got two giggly 11 year olds who are quite satisfied with the moment.  Good stuff I say.

All in all, I'd say this vacation was A Plus... can't wait to scrap it!

 

Ah....relax...

Have big plans for this weekend?  We're on Tybee Island hangin' beachside for the 4th, so if you're on North beach past the lighthouse give me a holla if you see me!

We're doin' some of this...

 

...and a little of this...

  

...probably a lot of this...

 

Do we have to go home?  Pleeeeeeease just five more minutes...
