i'm in a scrapping rut!

I have not scrapped in a week! I just can not seem to create anything. I'm in a real block right now, luckily I just got an email from Page Maps and their April sketches are awsome and they are using alot of 5x7 pictures. I just ordered like 15 more pictures from scrapbookpictures.com of the wedding {of course} and I ordered a bunch of 5x7's so these sketches are going to be perfect for what i need! Then of course my favorite website {The Scrapbook Site} is posting there April challenges and if they can't get me out of my rut then I am just hopeless because those challenges are always awsome!


One of the coolest challenges that I have ever done is really interesting. Rachel posted it and I got the first day done. What you have to do a page every day! It consists of two pictures journaling and some sort of memoriabilia. So for today I took a picture of the front page of our local newspaper {i plan on doing that is one picture everyday since that will basically give me the day and date and the intersting headlines} I have a picture of the boys at the charity hockey game that we went to today and the ticket stubs as the memorabilia, and I journaled about what we did today and how much I spent food shopping this morning.


Yesterday was a really long day, Michael had a baseball tournement. The team played two back to back games! It was such a long day and the kids were exhausted that by the second game that they were losing 13-0 in like the 4th inning so they ended up calling the tournament! But it was only the second time that they have played together since they split up the teams. It's only preseason so I know once they get the feel for each other and come together they are going to do really well!!! I have to say though, out of all the sports that Michael plays, be really excels at baseball. He loves playing short stop! He is really proud of himself making the traveling team this season, like the coach said he is one of the younger players on the team so at first he may not get to play his favorite position, he is going to have to prove himself in practice so that he can get where he wants to be!
