Scrapbooking From the Inside Out

I've been MIA for a while because I've been scrapbooking like a crazy woman! I had the opportunity to be the June guest designer for Scrapbooking From the Inside Out. What a great mission they have and a wonderful community full of awesome scrapbookers!

so needing vacation right now

Recent page I did reminiscing about a vacation past. It's been a while.

don't you love it when that happens?

Way back in October, I followed Houston around to get a week in his life on camera. I just decided to get to scrapbooking it, but I could only remember a few things he did that week by looking at the photos. A few days later I found a document on the computer - I actually documented EVERYTHING he did that week - but had forgotten! What a great surprise. I just printed it out, added it in a pocket behind the page. I was even more surprised when I took 20 minutes to read it. He was so different just six months ago. We were trying to get rid of the morning nap, switching to soy milk, etc. Seems like YEARS ago.

Happy Easter

Wait, what? YOU actually let Houston hunt for eggs with CANDY in them? Ummm, no. They were empty. Poor guy. But he had a really good time hunting for them all afternoon outside and inside. And then hiding them for Pa only to get irritated Pa was taking so long and finding them himself.

totally obsessed with clutches

Been MIA for a while. My niece and nephew have been visiting and Miss K and I have been sewing like crazy!

key lime cupcakes

Experimented this weekend - made these key lime coconut cupcakes with key lime frosting. I wish I wrote it down. mmmm mmmm tasty delicious....I had two - um, Saturday, and one Sunday. I won't tell how many R had...

Here's the frosting recipe, though. I did write that down once I got what I liked. And then I rolled the tops in more coconut. They were very tropical. Kind of like we were on vacation. sort of.

1/2 c butter
4 c confec sugar
2 T key lime juice
2 T milk
2 t grated key lime peel
