Time for a Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Summer Hop!

We're all sharing some fun things with you for the next 4 days.  Make sure you check out the links below to head over to Alyssa's blog.

Here's an update on my Summer Smash book.  Click here to see the first post.  I'm documenting our entire summer in this one book.  All of our activities.

The first page is our trip to San Diego on the Amtrak.  My son loves trains so we take him at least once a month - either to San Diego or LA.  The second page is a picture of my cousin Tammy holding Nick.  Great shot of them but not one I'm going to actually scrapbook.  And I found the perfect use for those chip flowers from the October Afternoon 5 & Dime line.....

Some of those cool Smash pockets hold our ticket stubs and other pictures from the trip.  I have the Canon Selphy printer.  I printed out 12 different photos before choosing the ones I want on the page.  The rest went in the pocket.

Another trip to Chuck E. Cheeses.  Thats what happens when you live right around the corner from one.  Plus we had a bag of tickets to redeem from the field trip.

Next up was our harbor cruise in Newport Beach.  I got a great Groupon Deal for this and bought several of them.  I figured we could all go at least twice this summer. 

 I like to look at the boats and houses and pick out the ones I would buy if I had a million dollars.....

 This page stumped me but I can't bear to rip it out.  So it became the movie ticket stub page.  All of our ticket stubs will go here.  So far we have Hangover 2 and Cars 2.

If you haven't purchased a Smash book yet, you should.  These are great ways of taking your scrapbooking on the road.  The next update I have will be the pages I got done during our Calgary trip!
