Summer Vacation Scrapbook Pages - Day 3

And finally...August 2009 vacation #3!
As their 50th anniversary gift wish, my parents asked for nothing more than a family trip with all the kids and grandkids.  After some stressful planning, we settled on a weekend in cabins in Tawas, Michigan.  It rained most of the weekend and was not warm enough to swim...typical.  But we made our own fun with games during the rain and nature walks when the clouds parted.

At least I can say I got in the water...

It's stuff like this that makes me a very slow scrapbooker...  I can't help myself, I see each page as a little canvas and I strive to make something special about it.  On this one, the handcrafted "Beach" sign turned out just so cute.  The sand, grasses, and post are all scrap papers cut, torn, and folded to create the right look.  The top of the sign is a chipboard arrow shape.

Whew!  That was a lot of vacationing...by the time August was over, I was actually glad to be back to work and a normal routine...how sad is that!?
