Summer has been inspiring me lately. I have had a lot more time to be creative and have been doing lots of fun projects. The weather is beautiful! It stays light so late that I feel like the days are so much longer. Summer just makes you feel happy and that in it self is inspiring! =}

I have been learning Lightroom 2 and it is TOTALLY inspiring to tweak the photos of my kids into fun pieces of art. I send them to friends and family via email, and I've been printing tons of images.

my grand daughters are a constantsource of inspiration. They have such a fresh new perspective on everything and have no preconceived ideas of what works and what doesn't.

Frankly I'm struggling for inspiration lately. I feel like looking through magazines and catalogs once in a while but haven't printed photos or scrapbooked in several weeks, I could use something to inspire me right about now.

My Inspiration the whole month of JULY....has been:
.................NEW LIFE..................
Our 8 Mama Beef Cows all had beautiful adorable little
calves! They are growing so fast...and it's so much fun to watch them run and jump and scamper way up to the end of the fenced pasture area and than come right back to their Mamas! A Real Rodeo on our Farm!
Not much here about scraping.....but I will take pics. soon and probably put them in a Memory Book soon!

We did a family getaway with friends - camping, complete with ATV's, and had a blast. I'm inspired to get busy on the shots I took, plus school starts up here in just a week! (eek!) so I'm looking forward, and am inspired by, the thoughts of cooler weather coming and having some time alone.

the rain has inspired me.....to clean my house!
A rainy day is the perfect day to stay inside during the summer and get some chores done! (well, after I curl up and do some reading first!)

Here lately, I've been finding myself inspired by the not so ordinary. Colors in my kids clothes, items that I treasure - and I think that is the key for me - trying to tie it in to my treasures. Any mental cue to bring me back to that particular moment so I can savor it one more time.
Thanks for the chance to share and the awesome giveaways!

The Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Live. I'm preparing for Cathy's Big Picture class and just loving the book and putting together my own quirky list. My 6 and 11 year old daughters are going to make albums with me so I'm also inspired (and amused) by the similarities and differences in what we are all coming up with.
