More Digital Scrapbooking

I started making a silly album to chronicle our time as Hurricane Ike Refugees a few months ago, and since I had some down time this week, I decided it would be a good time to finish the album. We were evacuated for 6 days... 11 family members in a 2,300 square foot, one-story house... things were a little tense from time to time! *This album in no way means to make light of a very serious situation which left many people, including my own uncle, homeless. It was more to laugh at ourselves. Enjoy!

Digi Scrap Challenge - Weeks 2 & 3

I missed Week 2 of the challenge due to being in the hospital (more on that soon!), but I went ahead and did it anyway this week.

Weekly Digiscrap Contest Entry

So, Casey recently posted a challenge to come up with new digital scrapbook pages based on a weekly theme. As I am trying to get more into digital scrapping, I thought this would be a great way to work on some layouts and push myself more into this realm, since I am often too busy for traditional scrapbooking.

The theme for Week 1 was "My Favorite Place" and my entry for the week is below. Leave me a comment and tell me what you think!

Picture Perfect Tuesday

This is what happens when you leave me alone with my niece... and a pink wig.

Prayers Needed

I don't normally do this, but I could really use some praying hand and hearts on this one. I recently found out that two of my cousins are dealing with some heavy medical issues with their children.

My cousin Wes' son, Nate, has recently been diagnosed with Cancer. He is only 2 years old. They live in Dallas, so I don't have all of the specifics. I know that they almost lost him a few days ago while trying to put in the feeding tube. I believe he is responding fairly well to his treatments, but serious prayers are needed.

I also found out that my cousin Amy's newborn, Emma, is afflicted with a heart problem. I am not really sure what is going on there, but again - prayers needed.

Even if you don't pray, please send some positive thoughts out for these two children. I know my family will appreciate it!

Update

Things are weirdsville right now. It isn't something I really want to talk about, but I am very thankful for great friends and having a wonderful support system. And especially for a certain 4-year old girl who was willing to pack up all her toys in Ziploc bags and move into the closet (not really, CPS... back off!) to help a friend in need.

Thank you, dear friends.
