Back from Vacation

The boys and I recently took a week-long vacation to Myrtle Beach, SC. It was our first time there and we had a really good time. In addition to being on the beach, there were a bunch of attractions to see, such as an aquarium, Hard Rock Cafe, Magiquest, Ripley's museum, Nascar go-karts, an amusement park, and water slides to name a few. And yes, we pretty much did them all.



But, as much fun as we had, it's nice to be back. I always feel like I have way too much to do to be gone for so long... and now it's time to get back in the swing of things (such as looking for a job).

Before I left, I finished up the Crowned competition at Scrapdango with this layout. The challenge was to show off a talent and I chose to knit a banner from ribbon. My first time including knitting on a layout and to try it in ribbon. I'm fairly pleased with how it turned out.







Now that the competition is over, I've started a new one at My Scraps and More. Of course, being on vacation has put me slightly behind on the challenges, but thankfully the deadline is not till the end of summer.
