Summer fun - Swimmin' and Scrappin'

We had a nice family weekend. Tom had off on Friday so we spent the day at the Hawaiian Falls Waterpark. We got lucky and with a $5 raffle ticket won a free cabana for the day, and pizza and drinks. It was awesome! I was so bummed I hadn't brought my camera. I even checked out their little shop and they didn't sell waterproof cameras. Bummer! Jake was a total daredevil!

Saturday we just vegged most of the day and then went to the city pool for an evening swim sponsored by the kids' elem school. It was fun seeing everyone from the school.

Today I cleaned out the garage with the kids helping (supposedly!) and then we made up water balloons for a backyard water balloon fight. Nice lazy day! Tom's going in on Thursday for a steroid shot to help out his back so he can't take any muscle relaxers now so he wasn't up for cleaning the garage. I sooooo hope that this shot helps him. He's been in pain for so long.

I've also spent some time scrapbooking this weekend. I decided to try out for a couple creative teams (crossing my fingers!) - Krystal's and Eva Kipler. In order to do this I created a gallery on Digital Shop Talk. I'm totally psyched about this site now. Love all the layouts...they are great inspiration and I love the fact you can save layouts to your 'Faves'. It's really a great site! Thanks for getting me going on this Krystal!!!

For you DST'ers out there - a couple questions -

1. Is there an easy way to add a hyperlink in the comments section when you upload your photo?

2. Where do you add a photo of yourself to your profile (that shows up on your posts)?
** Update - never mind - figured this one out! **

Here are some of my recent pages (plus a few older ones I've never uploaded) -
