Richard did it! And a really old photo!

So, what have I been up to today, besides the usual housework, mmh, let me think, I took the boys out in the sunshine this afternoon to ride on their bikes, no traffic today, so much more relaxing. I had told one of the Mum's at Kindergarden, that I would be out, if they cared to join us, and they did. The boys thought that was GREAT! And I got to chat with an adult again!

Ooh, mustn't forget the most IMPORTANT news of the day - Richard finally did his business on the potty!!!! And he was sooo excited about it. Sometimes a bit of bribery works wonders. Whilst he was doing his wee-wee on the potty, I asked him about doing a pooh, no, he didn't need to. I said OK, but if he did he should let me know, cause there were stickers for doing it on the potty or toilet. And hey presto - 5 minutes later I was back in there and he did it! Yippee! Who knows we could be not only dry soon! Fingers crossed.

At lunchtime I got another photo scrapped, Mum sent me this one, it is my great-great-great-great grandmother! the photo itself is probably about 173 (!) years old, I am so in awe of it! Anyhow here the layout using my Antique Floral freebie.

Speaking of my freebie, it seems some of you are having problems with Sunshine Studio Scraps. I am not sure why this is, but my Mum did have a similar problem and although she is a member she could not see the gallery. Logging her in in the forum first then returning to the gallery helped, you could try that. The other problem Mum was having, was she couldn't comment, that resolved itself, when she found the "activation email" in her email. If the problems persist drop me an email kayjaydo (at) yahoo (dot) com and I will be in touch! But please try at Sunshine first as you would be missing out if you didn't there are now around 30(!) different freebies from the second mission over there and some of the links from the first round are still active. You should have a look around.

That's all for now, off to enjoy the peace and quiet around here...

LOVE your LO, the layering of the frames, the layering of the bow and brooches, just beautiful!
Love the photo too. How awesome to have that!
... But I'm gonna be a Pain In The you-know-what...
I wanted to know how old your great-great-great-great grandmother was on that photo, and I come out on 29. :) Now I KNOW people aged differently then, but...
Couldn't it be she's about 65, and you switched the 7 and 3?
I know... PITA... It's a thing I do, and I can't stop myself. :(

Ooh, And I agree with Benita! Would looooove to see the Dirndl!!! LOL!!

Also, I didn't have any problems with SSS. Love what you made!

Enough filling up your comments with my yakking.
HUGS!!

Kerri never was any good at maths, sorry Kerri only joking, but I dont really know how old she was, people did age more then but I would think she was at least in her 50's. Will have to try and find some more old photos for Kerri to scrap.
