Journalling reads:
Toby, I just loved watching you play with your friends Amy and Sally. You were all so intent on watching Humphrey B. Bear on stage at the Sunbury Fair, but you made sure you stuck by your friends and helped each other to sing and dance along with Humphrey. You are all so cute when you play together and this makes me so happy to see. March 2006

Toby and Ryan spent the day outside helping Mummy clean up the backyard. We had been to Bunnings to stock up on some tools for the garden and the boys wanted to get it all out and use it! We even found some kid-sized gardening gloves so they used them to pick up all the leaves that were in our backyard. seeing it's Autumn, there were leaves everywhere.

My journalling reads:
Look at where technology and music have come over the years. These are some of my favourite vinyl LP’s from the 80’s and 90’s. Still got them all but have no record player to play them on! But I’m hanging onto them as momentos of my influences. Music has played such a big part in my life, especially in my teenage years. I was crazy for all sorts of music ranging from rock to new wave to hip hop. I used to go to so many concerts, stake out bands arriving at the airport, queue up the night before when concert tickets went on sale and plastered my bedroom and school books with any pictures and posters I could find. I’d sit and listen to my tapes and albums for hours, even going to the extent of transcribing the words from my favourite songs. Just a part of me that hasn’t changed, as I still love my music, although I hear a little too much of The Wiggles these days having two boys of my own now!

I originally created this layout back in February 2009 but never put any journalling onto it. So for a workshop at The Digi Chick - Every Life Has A Story - I added the journalling onto the blue circle.
I just tweaked the shadows a little and slightly moved the elements around to read the journalling but now the layout is much more meaningful to me and to my DS too
I have created a layout detailing some of my family's occupations in life. The layout is my sample for the September '09 Monthly Workshop on family histories/stories in The Digi Chick Forums.
