I finally did it - I'm in a national scrapbooking magazine! It's the Sept-Oct issue of Memory Makers magazine - I'm at the very end of the Halloween section. My layout is a lot of fun - the photo showcases those of us who volunteer at school on Fridays for lunch. Most of the ladies were aptly dressed as "lunch ladies" with the hair nets and bad skin, lol.
Anyway - it's just a lot of fun to see the magazine on the stands in the grocery store and the book store. Unfortunately, it is the very last issue of this magazine which is a real bummer since it's my favorite. The unfavorable economy has hit the scrapbook magazine publishing industry pretty hard - and this is not the first to cease publication.
Some magazines stay on in "online" formats which I truly hate. It's a pain to read, and I can't take it to the beach or the pool. And I can't bring it with me to peruse while in the school pick-up line. I even forget that they're even online!
Oh well.
Other news.......I'm beginning work on a new photography website and business! I'm very excited about this new venture and am starting to build my portfolio. Stay tuned!
This is also the last week of summer vacation for us......where did the summer go? We didn't do all that much during the summer - really just the recent trip to California. Most days were filled with my son's tennis clinics and camps, as well as other camps, too. He had plenty of free time, though, and that seems to have been mostly spent on the computer playing interactive games with his local friends (or without his friends when their parents kicked them off their computers lol). But he's also read a ton of books (no surprise there) and completed an entire math workbook.
Happy Tuesday!
