Ugh. I thought I could use my super mom powers and escape the sickness that's going around, but no super powers here! Now the girls in the Boos household are a little (a lot) under the weather, and the boys seem to be out of the woods. In fact, ironically, Austin seems to be the happiest of the bunch which has been so the opposite over the last few weeks. And, can I just add that I have a SUPER husband! He took care of the kids today while I basically slept the day away and shuffled around. He is one amazing man!!
Thankfully, before I got socked with the cold/flu (and possibly pink eye!), I was still able to have a lot of fun with friends on Saturday at the Scrapbook Convention. I was starting to feel a little bit sicker as the day continued on, but it was fun and exciting enough that I wasn't bothered by the scratch in my throat too much.
During the convention, I took four different classes and really enjoyed them all in their own little way. We made some fun and different projects that helped to inspire my creativity with my scrapbooking! I even won a door prize!! Free stuff is always good.
After the convention, some of us met up to do a little more scrapbooking at a local scrapbook store, and I decided to finish up a few of the pages I had started in one of my classes called Photos First instructed by Simple Scrapbooks (Creating Keepsakes). The concept for these pages were to use a lot of pictures to create a specific look. This is right along my style because I like to have a lot of pictures on my pages. Although I took the concept/idea of the class, I made these my own with picture placement and color.

Cute layouts, I am so jealous! I haven't scrapbooked for so long, and miss it! Hope you get feeling better really soon! Get lots of rest!
So fun! (The scrapbooking, not the pink eye!) I never have time to scrapbook anymore! I really miss it but it has gotten so piled up it is overwhelming and now avoid it! Love your layouts!
Great pages Heidi. I hope you feel better soon. It's no fun being a sick mamma. Praying for your health.
I hope you are feeling better this morning. I love your scrapbook pages-the first one gave me some ideas-we just had my son's first birthday party yesterday.
I'm sorry you got bit...I hope you feel better soon. It sounds like you all had a fun time and your pages turned out really well. Get some rest!
Sorry you're not feeling well Heidi! I will miss you today if you don't make it. Beautiful scrapbooking!
Ugh. Sorry you got bit. I got bit yesterday, again, too. I think we should boycott illness nextyear. Think it'd matter?
I'm glad you had fun before getting sick. It stinks being sick. I hope you and Mikayla get better quickly! Did you make it to your MOPS meeting?

I hope you are feeling better and back on your feet, quickly. It's hard to be sick when your the mom.
By the way, loved your layouts. They're great. What a great b'day present. Sounds like you had a blast.
Hope you are better! I had lots of fun with you on Saturday. Layout #3is my favorite. :-)
Umm... excuse me, but ALL us moms have superpowers! If evading getting sick is not one of yours, then you have to persist in uncovering the powers you DO have :-)
