And I actually got a scrapbook page done! I was challenged through Kidding Around to "just finish one that has been hanging around". So I did.

I've been trying to get some done with the kids (through Kidding Around again) but it isn't actually working out yet - but we do still have a month to go. We are getting some of the activities done and the pictures taken though.

All in all another good month - fast, but good.
