I used Anna's Travel template but Nigel and I didn't have to travel far. We're Philly locals and know the cheesesteak scene pretty well. This was Nigel's first real chesesteak. I chose Geno's not necessarily because it's the best in the city, but because of the history that surrounds it...

Going all the way back to when you had to wait three days to have your black and white film (that's right... film) developed.

Nothing beats a heat wave like ice cold watermelon!

Game 5 of the NHL finals tonight. (All tied at 2 a piece. It comes down to a three game series)! This is my homage to hockey. The first game Nigel ever attended. I used Anna's ArtsyLayered Template #45.

Awesome Layout! My sentiments exactly! Thought of this as I was viewing https://www.pinterest.com/pin/575686764840682447/

THROWBACK THURSDAY! With the release of Jurassic World, we're all about Dinosaurs again! This page is from the first go round about 4 years ago. I used Anna's: Artsy Layered Template #34 APP Science

I've been experimenting with simplicity lately. (Anyone who's seen my layouts knows simplicity isn't even in my vocabulary)!!! lol. My last layout only had one photo. (Again... unheard of in my creative process)! I used Anna's: ScribbleBlooms #1 DrippedWaterColors#1

Our annual Labor Day Week vacation at the Outer Banks in North Carolina. It's become a tradition of ours to fly kites on Jockey's Ridge Sand Dune; the tallest natural sand dune on the east coast. (You can actually see it from outer space). Also the site of the Wright Brothers famous first...

Some of the greatest treasures are right in your backyard. You can tell by the look on Nigel's face that he's not really a hiker!! lol I used Anna's: ArtPlay Palettes Lush, Explore and Canyon

Absolutely love the color palette created by bronze patina! Great job in choosing the colors for your elements, word art, background. It really brings out the best of that natural color scheme.

THROWBACK THURSDAY!! Goin back to when the Phillies were good. I used Anna's: Hipster Plumes Artsy Layered Template #11

I found this place driving back from a Hershey Park vacation. It was just a spur of the moment visit... saw the billboard, wasn't quite ready for vacation to end. I used Anna's: ArtPlay Palette Canyon MagicFlares 1 Distressed Korners and Edges 10

Goin' back about five years. Soaking your friends with the garden hose never grows old... it transcends time!! I used Anna's FotoBlendz Layered Template #11

I forgot to mention it, but all of the work except the carpets were done by me and Nigel.

Every now and then you get to do a page about a truly life changing moment. This page is one of them. Three years ago as my mom was in the late stages of colon cancer, I made the decision to move Nigel and I to my parents house - (1) To help my dad in dealing with the physical and...

This could be a picture of my little town. I wouldn't live anywhere else! Great page.

Thanks nancy. If there was anyone who would understand I knew it'd be you. You bring out the bird enthusiast in all of us! It almost makes me forget the fact that you're a Devils fan.... almost. lol

THROWBACK THURSDAY! Zoo members since birth. This has always been one of our favorite exhibits.
