Bit of a tidy up ... then a LO

Okay, only going to show 1 end of our computer room/scrap space for now :-) Didn't get my desk tidied up in the end, made a start then realised I hadn't done a LO for a challenge I really wanted to do at Scrap-n-Crop's forum. I've missed the last 3 so really wanted to do this one.

So here's my shelving unit (Ikea again! - love that place) and it is actually much tidier although the photos probably don't show it, but it's organised for me! haha I bought the baskets for the bottom shelves yesterday and one has toys in it for Maddison (rather than in a spare rubbish bin!) and another basket has craft stuff for Aaron (colouring in books, punches, stickers etc.).


I need to get a shelf above my desk so I can put my finished crafty pieces on rather than up in front of my magazines (makes it hard to get to the mags).

The moderators challenge for August at Scrap-n-Crop's forum was "Thankful". So I decided to do a page for my Book of Me of Lyndon and the kids.

.

Journaling reads:

"I'm thankful for a lot of things, but especially for you 3. Love this photo of you all, taken on Maddison's 1st birthday - Lyndon helping Maddison open her presents and Aaron so excited by it all and just taking over! :-)"
