Ban mother-guilt. Make a super cool (EASY) photo album scrapbook for your senior!
A Fresh Start (again)
I promised myself I would start blogging again on (or before) September 1st. It's now 9:34pm, very near my bedtime and I'm tired, so here goes ...
A story about opening doors.
Watch the super-cool story that inspired my first sprinkle challenge.
I'm bringing sprinkles back!
I love and use sprinkles. Not just the candy kind, but also the kind that involve intentional acts of awareness, compassion, curiosity and creativity. I call these everyday sprinkles, and I'm bringing them back!

Because He Lives!
I love this Easter holiday.
I love going to church and singing (as loud as my kids will allow) the hymn, Christ The Lord is Risen Today(chorus: Hallelujah!) I love this video that reminds us that because of Christ Jesus we will be resurrected and we have the opportunity to repent, over and over and over again.
Ginger Bunnies
I'm certain that I have blogged about ginger bunnies before (I have yet to unearth a previous post) but I want to revisit this story, publish my fist-ever scrapbook page about these cookies, link to a recent post I contributed to familysearch.org and then share some more recent photos, along with additional ideas for preserving and sharing this kind of holiday tradition over time.
Escaboodily Bump.
I was invited to participate on the Paperclipping Roundtable this morning in a discussion about documenting people that have passed. With the exception of a few Skype issues, I thought this was a really good episode. Other guests were Jen Gallacher and Tracy from MercyTiara.com who both shared fantastic insights into this often uncertain and emotional topic. The perspective I shared was less about telling the stories of sudden and/or tragic death and more about documenting people we love, who have passed and that we want to pay tribute to.
