Fall Fun Day


  I tried to beat the sunset to get this layout photographed but as you can see the flash hit the photos. I will replace it tomorrow when the sun is up. This layout is a little on the sad side for me. Just looking at the pictures I can see the sadness on Matt's face, even though he was trying to have fun. The journaling reads: "After Daddy died I tried to keep things as normal as possible. We did lots of school sponsored activities. In November we spent the afternoon at the Marsh school participating in Fall Fun Day. There were several statesion set up with various crafts to do. You both liked the Home Depot" station - Matt made a football plaque and Susie a note holder. It was a sad time for us but we were adjusting." It still breaks my heart to know how much hurt and loss these two amazing kids have seen and felt in their young lives. But they have adjusted..we all have! And they are turning into phenomenal young adults! Daddy would be very proud! 

I used Echo Park Walk in the Park papers, Jillibean Soup and October Afternoon letters, Ameican Crafts and Reminisce brads, Kraft paper. Sketvch #113 by The Scrappiest!
