Home Base

Scrappy Monday, y'all!  I'm still trucking away at older photos.  Well, going back and forth between baby Ryan 2017 pictures and baby Sadie 2006 pictures, but every once in a while I throw something else into the mix and here's my layout for the house we lived at the first time we were in North Carolina!

The title is me being punny because we lived in a house on base (the hubs rolled his eyes at me, he just doesn't appreciate puns).  These pictures are from way back when we used cameras that had FILM!  And we've moved around a lot in the last almost 15 years, so I've saved at least one address label from each place we've lived and I think I've got pictures of moving in to most of the houses.  Those pics get more interesting as time goes on because it's harder to remember what each house looked like.  The one in these pictures got torn down right after we moved out so at least no one else was subjected to those ugly yellow cabinets after us.

And all of the colors on this layout are now retired except for white.  Say hi to Blue Bayou (I've been reaching for this several times lately), Soft Sky, Wild Wasabi, and Chocolate Chip.  And Whisper White, which I think it's safe to say will never retire because he's a workaholic.

Hope your week is off to a good start, y'all.  Cheers!

Home Sweet Home

Scrappy Monday, peeps!  We're doing the time warp with today's layout, the pictures are over 10 years old.

This is from way back when the hubs and I lived in North Carolina and were just getting furniture for our house...we slept on the floor for a month before we got a mattress, and it was several more months before we got living room and dining room furniture.  Then we brought my yellow Lab Chewie from Texas to NC to live with us, and that's when the house became a home :)

Here's my color palette for today:

Mellow Moss, So Saffron, Cherry Cobbler, and Early Espresso.  If you want to be picky, I have some bits of Night of Navy, Mossy Meadow, and Soft Suede on my stamped block, but the ones pictured are the main colors.  When we moved to Alabama, I got a bunch of scrapbook stuff that I'd left at my parents' house for 7 years, so I had a looksie through the patterned paper and pulled out some of that to use on this layout (which is good, because I don't think I have any Mellow Moss SU! patterned paper really, and that was the color I wanted).  Kind of fun to look through that stuff I haven't seen in so many years...now I just have to figure out what to do with it all!

Well, it's time to get my run on this morning.  Have a great day, peeps!
