The week in pictures. ❄️

A nasty winter storm brought snow and frigid weather this week. Thankfully we haven’t had any issues with frozen pipes (***knocks on wood***) like we have in previous years. Thankfully warmer weather is on the horizon because Poppy and I are feeling like caged animals at this point.

All joking aside, I’m thankful for my warm house (frosted over windows and all). Thankful for the sunshine. Thankful for the cutest homemade bread delivery service. Thankful that Tripp made it home safely from his travels.

Sending warm hugs and lots of love to you!

I am going back to the 12x12 pocket page style of scrapbooking again for 2025. I debated about the size initially because I had so much fun playing with paper and embellishments in my December Daily album. In the end though, this size and style just works for a project of this scope.

Once again I’ll be using the Stories by the Month kit and other @aliedwardsdesigninc goodies to fill the pockets. I have some photos printed out and I am looking forward to digging into February stories next!

The week in pictures.

Little snippets of life from the past week (before Valentine's Day). Time with my girl and my grandson. Time with with friends. Time with some creative play. It was a good week.
