way back in february my little brother came out to visit me and the kids. (see here and here and here if you want to see all we did) so now that it is june and practally fathers day, i thought id scrapbook him a little fathers day gift. (my kids always send their uncles fathers day cards/gifts)
it started with this sweet wooedn box from d.i. that i scored for a buck! i like how it slides open. sadly, no fairytale brownies inside.
i modge-podged some maps from snowbird (where we went skiing with uncle pat while he was here) to all the sides of the box. to make sure it stuck, i used my monster chip clip until it was dry.
i used my cricut to put some snow flakes on the top after painting it white. (snowflakes dont sound so weird right now here in utah. the mountains got a few inches this past weekend.)
i had a little foldable scrapbook kit that i used to put photos and some memories of uncle pat's visit from the boys.
(and since you all are now thinking 'whfreak ba?!' with the title of the scrapbook, let me explain...
my little brothers and i find it HYSTERICAL that Salt Lake UT spells...well, slut. we put that on all packages and mail going to and from utah and the east coast. but i also laugh when i talk about all the balls i decorate. im very immature.)
so here is my gift for uncle pat from the boys! he doesnt usually have time in the work week to visit this blog, so i should be safe until this arrives east!
now i just have to work on chris...

Thanks for checking out my SW Sequence game! Our favorite line is "I have a bad feeling about this..." esp bc it gets to old so quickly in all the Clone Wars episodes! I love your box. That's such a cute idea! I'm still trying to come up with something super-fab for my kids to give my brother. Maybe I'll have to be on the lookout for a cool box like that! :) Following you, too! :)
Careful. You might want to tell him not to check it, because sometimes you think they don't, and you're wrong, and then your husband gets mad at you...Not that that happened to me, or anything...
You crack me up! Between slut and the comment about bird poo in a birdcage, you've really given me a much-needed dose of laughter today! =)
