I've been busy....

Working... scrapping... playing... and (generally speaking) enjoying this summer!

Last weekend was packed with fun stuff.  On Saturday, I took a class from super sweet Sarah.  How could I say no to her invite and miss the chance to (a) meet in person, (b) check out a new to me scrapbooking store and (c) use two of my favorite things... Basic Grey Origins patterned papers and a Sketchy Thursdays sketch?!  I had a great time chatting with Sarah and the other cute lady taking the class.  And I got these two layouts done by the end of the weekend (once I printed pics on Sunday)!
Pictures from our stream fishing hike a few weeks ago.  See all the trout in the middle picture?!  It was so much fun... nothing better than being alone in the woods with my husband, not a soul in sight!! :)
And these pics are of our dog Scarlet playing with her new boy toy Clark Kent the next day on Sunday!!
And before I go and share more pics of Scarlet and her new man, I have to share one more layout I made as a result of this class... I couldn't resist buying a few extra sheets of patterned paper from that line and making this:
Another photo from our day of stream fishing.  I couldn't believe how cool this photo turned out given that I was using our point-and-shoot waterproof camera!!  Definitely proves the theory that you don't always have to have a fancy camera to get an amazing photo!! :)
And I also made this card, using last week's Sketchy Thursday card sketch:
Bad lighting for this photo... the color is kinda off, but I love how it turned out!! Used up some scraps from the class.
For supplies, you can see all three layouts and the cardin my gallery here.

So that was Saturday and on Sunday, we went to meet up with Brianne and her little man Clark Kent:

Not to be confused with our little lady Scarlet:

Not that I am biased or anything... but it's so adorable!!


That's our Scarlet on the left and Mr. Clark Kent on the right!  Don't they make the cutest couple?! :) lol

Today, Bri and Clark Kent came to visit us here at the house and play.  I didn't get any pictures, but they are definitely more used to each other and were having so much fun playing together. :)

Be back tomorrow with a quick layout to share for this week's Sketchy Thursday challenge and later this week with the yummy recipe for zucchini (that I think I mentioned last week...).  What did you do this weekend?!
