An update and some layouts...

Well I just returned from Spring Break this past weekend and I had a blast. Nothing exciting happened, but I got to visit my family in Louisiana for nine days and it was much needed and very relaxing! My niece and nephew were great fun to be around and I even got to see my cousins Rachel, Ayden, and Drew. We had a extraordinary time!

Before I left going out of town, there was a crop over at ACOT. I love these things! They are so much fun and the friends you make while doing it is unbelievable. I won a challenge there and I had one of my layouts chosen to be represented in the "CT Spotlight there" I was so stoked about it. Here are some layouts from that weekend...

This is the "CT Spotlight" Pick
