I don’t know why I can’t keep up on my blog lately. It seems like when I’m not at my computer I think of all sorts of things to say on here and then when I’m actually sitting with the laptop I draw a complete blank. Easter weekend actually seemed particularly long which is highly unusual for me. Normally weekends seem to fly by. Got to spend lots of time with the nieces and nephews. Babysat Paige, Corbin, Braelynn & Ainsley Friday night and Kylie and Kennedy came for dinner and coloring eggs. Went to the Easter egg hunt in the neighborhood behind us to take pictures of the kids while they filled their baskets with eggs. Got some great pictures to scrap from that. Got some adorable photos of Selah that they needed for her baptism this coming Sunday. Took my niece Celena to church with us Easter morning and then had a nice Easter brunch at my aunt’s bed & breakfast where I got more great photos to scrap. Here’s one of my favorites from the day. Braelynn does not leave Grappy’s side. My dad is just the BEST grandpa and I swear Paige should be in magazines. I don’t think it’s possible to get a bad photo of her.  Now if only I could find that creativity thing back. Hoping to scrap some of these easter photos soon with Gina’s latest mega kits. If you haven’t gotten it yet it’s not too late to grab it at a great discount along with what I think is just the coolest kit yet. The super discount is only through today though so go now. :) I can see using something from that book bag kit in almost every LO I ever create. So many fun papers and elements!

Been working on the Eclectic Whimsy site. Fortunately the creative side of that was determined early on so it’s just a matter of putting all the pages together. Here’s a sneak peak at the main page. Still a work in progress. Started out with some brushwork by Rhonna from her latest Peachy Keen kit just to play around with ideas and a concept for the background. Amazing kit and worth every penny but not commercially usable so really it just made it nearly impossible to come up with a replacement that I really love but Lauren found these foliage brushes and the look is really growing on me. Now on to the same process of finding something I like even half as much as Nancie’s incredible distressing brushes. *sigh* But we’re getting there. The fabulous papers are all by Jen Wilson. Soooo thrilled that she’s involved and generous enough to let us use her designs for the website. I can’t imagine how we could’ve pulled off the look we wanted without her.

Still lovin’ the blog ipod. Added a few favorites by Marc Anthony today. To me latin music has gotta be the most romantic and my favorite latin romantic is Marc Anthony. His lyrics read like poems and I think he’s got an amazing voice. His ‘mended’ album has been one of my long favorites and one of those rare albums that I can listen to straight through and sing along to every song.

Off to work but I’ll be back to post another ‘betcha didn’t know’ tonight. Already have one in mind but I’ve gotta find some photos to post with it. For those that know me maybe you could guess at this one. I’m a bit of a groupie for a particular ’show’ and have been known to travel quite a distance just to see this group perform. Any guesses?
