A brother is friend given by Nature...

This was taken the day Brandon was born, July 13th 2011. His big sister Amanda is holding him for the first time and he looks very content.  She has been a big help with the baby, even though he gets a hold of her hair sometimes and wont let go, what else are little brothers for? Every time he sees her, he has a big smile for her.

The picture is a still frame taken from video, and thankfully the flip camera takes nice clear images that translate well into scrap projects :).

The kit is Veronica Spriggs' Raw Umber. I fell in love with this frame and bought the kit for that alone, but once I unzipped it, I found there were so many beautiful elements inside.

Asleep in Daddy's Arms...

Hard to believe it's been 6 months since this picture was taken. This was at a company picnic at Malabar Farm. We were waiting to start the tour of Louis Bromfield's house. Brandon looks so sweet, sound asleep on his daddy's shoulder.

Kit used is Tik Tak Tik Tak.

Edit October 8, 2012: Unfortunately the Shabby Pickle Shop has been closed so the above link is dead. The designer who made this kit can also be found at this shop, but I do not see this kit listed under the available products...
