Scrapbookin' Fool!

Well, after a 2 year hiatus--meaning I was in college full-time for the past 2 years--I have been able to return to my hobby of Scrapbooking! I'm only 2 years behind (imagine that) and am trying to catch up asap! I also have the pictures of 5 of my siblings + my husband's childhood to do. Then I thought I would make a scrapbook specifically for Tyler's experience in the Air Force. So, I have a feeling that I will be scrapbooking for some time...anyone else think so??

My Grandparents were given a heart attack (not literally) by their children & grandchildren. If you're unfamiliar with this-it's when you cut out hearts from construction paper and write nice little thoughts on it, then tape them on a door or wall. Well, my grandparents had over 100 hearts! They were very touched by the nice things written especially for them. My grandma bought a scrapbook to put them all in--keep in mind that I'm the ONLY person in my family that scrapbooks--so guess who will be helping my grandma scrapbook the hearts???? ME!!! And I'm really excited to do it with her! Some great bonding time! :)

So, for the next week, I will be doing LOTS of scrapbooking, which I actually find relaxing, in addition to cross stitching. What are your relaxing hobbies?

For me, my relaxing hobby lately is sleep. This pregnancy is wiping me out! When I recover, I hope to return to my cross stitch and crocheting. I'm even hoping to return to scrapbooking once I have a space for it. I just hate all of the tools I have to get out, only to return them an hour later. If I had a special place to leave my stuff, that would be a different story...
