Simply poppin'


Hello! Hope everyone's Monday is going fabulously. 

I was a little late to the new ScrapFIT schedule, so I'm playing catch up here. This layout is for the current challenges over there:

I am also playing along with Frosted Designs sketch challenge #32. It is sponsored by Paper Issues, a store I personally love and run by a crafty chick I totally adore! 


These pictures are from New Year's Eve when we broke out the new popcorn maker my mom and stepdad sent to my husband for Christmas. Nate could not believe that those little kernels become popcorn. Guess we've spent too long eating the microwave kind, eh?! 

Sometimes it's the simplest things that mean so much. It really was the highlight of the evening for him. 

If you have some time, stop by the above mentioned blogs and get crafty. And thanks for stopping to see my layout!

Oh how funny!! I TOO posted a layout about my kids enjoying a popcorn maker for the first time. They bought it for my Hubby for Christmas! Ha! Such a coincidence!! Kids do enjoy the simplest of things.
