Having fun in our backyard and another layout share :)

We popped a large piece of butcher paper on the fence so that Katie could go and paint away :) She loves the use the roller, don't care much for stamps haha, so she was rolling away, yes my fence does have some pretty paint on it now, but I don't care ;) She had loads of fun!! Good way to paint and make the mess outside instead of inside!




And I have a layout to share using more gorgeous FANCY PANTS goodness!!! This one is of Lily's one month photos and that little tag on the left side pulls out with all her achievements etc.


Am looking forward to tomorrow as we are off to Mount Tamborine again! We love going up there and taking a walk to the waterfall and strolling around the Botanical Gardens, always good to make a pit stop at the bottom of the mountain and buy some South African treats from the South African shop there :)

Hope you all have a beautiful weekend!! And thanks so much for all those gorgeous comments on my previous post MWAH! and HUGS!

What beautiful photos Jolene, that is a fantastic idea. I love your blog, especially your notes on your growing girls as they are so precious. Your layouts are to die for! I would be a bit lost if I didn't have your blog to read, you are one very talented lady. No wonder you have so many followers.

Melissa said...

A truly gorgeous way to let Katie express herself Jolene, and the look on her face is priceless...pure pleasure written all over.I reckon your fence will look good with the colour and bring back good memories of that day.
I have just read your last post, and I can't believe the hide of some people these days to hurt others.I am so glad you are still going to blog.You would be letting them mean and nasty good for nothings win.... Hugs...Melissa xo
