Spent the day in town with my mom went to the Goodwill Bins in Hillsboro got me a bunch of cool scrapbooking stuff, I haven't done any scrapbooking in a year or so but Mother's Day and my mom's birthday are coming up! I love to print out a bunch of family pictures and put together scrapbooks got alot of great pictures of all my nieces and nephews on Easter, especially alot of Aydrienne and haven't had a chance to print any pictures of her since Christmas time and she sure has gotten big since then. What have you all been up to today, do any of you enjoy scrapbooking?

I have always meant to start scrapbooking but I haven't really had the time. It's funny when you have a kid you think about how you should put together a scrapbook or something for them but little do you realize how little time you'll actually have to do those things. I think I might try to do it soon. I used to scrapbook some before I had my son. I need to get a start on it soon. I have so many pictures of my son and so few are actually printed.

@chrissbergstrom My son doesn't nap anymore, and I would do it while he was at school but that's usually when I run errands or nap lol. It's difficult to find time which is why I haven't yet lol.

It is almost impossible to do with kids around as they always want to help and then you get so sidetracked helping them that you don't get anything accomplished, so if you do start wait till he is napping or maybe at school?

What a great idea to do some scrapbooking for your Mom! I have friends who scrapbook like crazy. I've watched them but I've never done any.

@chrissbergstrom Yes they really are targeted for a specific group, but you can always do searches on facebook for scrapbooking groups and I know they would accept you.

It has been years since I scrapbooked but I did enjoy it when I did it. It is a lot of fun and brings back so many great memories when you go through the pictures.

I'd love to snoop in that Goodwill. I've mostly been gardening though I did stop to make lentils and cornbread for supper. I also went to town to interview the blacksmith dude. Sure was ready for supper when I got to it.
