Scrapping the little things!

Good morning my sweet friends & welcome to another "Scrapping the little things!" Today I have a page for you in my smashbook! I was very proud to document my son's HUGE accomplishment! He told me at the beginning of the school year that his goal was to work EXTRA hard because he "thought" all his teachers were going to be expecting alot out of him since Baby Aaron had the same teachers when he was in 7th grade! Of course, I told him that for him to just try his best & his teachers were NOT going to compare them. lol....... Well, he kept his word & received an award for this 4.0 status! He was SO HAPPY that he even had 3 A+'s too :). I have to say, I am TRULY VERY PROUD of BOTH of my boys! I wish the high school had award ceremonies, but unfortunately they don't :( . Baby Aaron is working his hiney off & I know he was struggling w/homework & LOTS of it since he has all honor classes, but he STILL managed to ALSO ace all his classes! As of right now, he has a 4.1667 GPA! I just feel VERY BLESSED that both of my boys work really hard & they BOTH deserve these AWESOME grades! :) The BEST part is that I NEVER have to ask them to do their homework when they get home from school! As soon as they walk in the door, I have a snack ready for them & they take out their homework & work on it RIGHT AWAY!

Okay, enough about bragging about my boys....hehehe! ;) Now when I did my smash book page for today, I was SO BUMMED that I did NOT take a picture w/Anthony! I was so worried about making sure he had pics w/my hubby & especially my parents, that I forgot about myself! lol.... oh well, next time! I just wanted to make sure I included my parents because they NEVER missed any award ceremonies my boys have had! YEP, they have been attending them since both boys were in kindergarten! I LOVE my parents because they are ALWAYS there no matter what. When my boys see them in the audience their beautiful little faces just light up the room!

I explained in my video how I put my page together below!

Supplies used:

~ Just Tags

~ Stitched Hexy Dies

~ Build a Banner Kit

~ Follow your dreams

Here is my video for today!

GOOD MORNING my creative friends & welcome to another "Scrappin the Little Things"!

If you are my facebook friend, then many of you have seen this picture already! Not only did my Dad get birthday presents, but we ALL did as well! My sister surprised us w/aprons made out of all of my Dad's older shirts! We were ALL genuinely surprised AND touched because now we all have a little something that is sentimental that belonged to my Dad! This was the bEST idea EVERRR & I was VERY PROUD of my sister for doing this for all of us!

Here, I used my "Gift Card Holder Die" for a little pocket! You can see in my video below exactly what I put in this cute pocket!;)
