Cardinals here we come~

 

 

So back in Sept. my husband and I were able to

get away for the weekend. With us not being from the

area, it was nice to be able to take a trip almost anywhere around

us.  Since everything was so new!  We decided to take a quick

getaway up to St. Louis without the kids.  Wow, some adult time!!!

While we missed the boys, it was really

nice to be able to have a conversation.

On our visit we were able to check out the

Cardinal's Baseball Park.  I learned tons about the

history of the team, and Todd even did, too.

 

Here are some pictures of our visit:

 

kit used: Black Friday

template used: Simple Layouts Template Pack

 

We had a really fun time, and both of the boys were not

very happy with us for going on this tour.  So we will be doing

it all over at the end of the month.  This time with Cole and Cody.  :)

 

Challenges I entered with my layout:

Kaboodle Doodle: anything but a card (miss you ladies)

Pause Dream Enjoy Challenges: For the boys

Scrapable: March Inspirational Challenge

and

Challenges4everybody: anything goes

 

Before I'm off to go enjoy my afternoon coffee, I do want to let all of

you know a detail about my layout. You see that big

picture in the background I did an overlay effect with PSE on top

of gray paper.  Now you can also create almost the same effect by keeping

the image normal, but changing the opacity of the photo. I use

both often, just depends on the paper below or the photo itself.

Now I'm off.

 

 

Be sure to check back tomorrow, as I have new goodies to share!!! Thanks

for stopping by, and have a great day. :)
