Universally Fun
Connie Prince has an awesome new collection releasing today. Uninversally Fun is the perfect to scrap your amusement park pictures, especially Universal Studios. Pick it up today.
I have never been to Universal Studios, but I want to go someday. Harry Potter World! However, I have been to an amusement park a time or two. One year when I was in college, I even had a season pass to Fiesta Texas. It was right across the freeway from UTSA. I took my “little sister” (I participated in the Big Brothers Big Sisters program) a few times that year. I thought about scrapping some of those photos, but I wasn’t sure about putting those photos on the web. Instead, I chose to scrap a visit with two of my best friends from high school when we got together one weekend (they attended universities in different cities). This was before I had a digital camera, so I wasn’t quite as photo happy as I am now. 🙂

Have a great weekend! I’m looking forward to James getting in late tonight. He’s been in California all this week for work. I’m going to suggest taking the girls bowling. We’ve been reading Mitchell Goes Bowling by Hallie Durand at least once per day this week. Janette is really digging it.

Sweet Summer Sunset
Scraps N Pieces has seven new releases this week!
The first is a fan kit called Sweet Summer Sunset that was the request winner during their Featured Designer spot a couple months ago. It was the Free with $10 purchase kit up through today and then goes into their shop as a regular product tomorrow. They have it on sale for those of you that didn’t pick it up free. It will be 1/2 off at both Scraps N Pieces and My Memories for a few days.
This fun freebie shown below is available to their newsletter subscribers. Make sure you are subscribed before their July 23rd newsletter is published so you can get it.
They also have 6 new QP packs in the store. Their newsletter subscribers will find a special coupon for these in the July 23rd edition of the newsletter, so just another reason to subscribe now. There is a link up above. These sets are available in both of their stores.
Here are two layouts I made using Sweet Summer Sunset. These are from our Disney cruise in 2013.

Now I See
Connie Prince has created the cutest collection for the July Gotta Grab It Sale at Gotta Pixel and the sale starts today! The core GGI packs are on sale $1 each. A convenient “get them all” bundle is available, too. The additional coordinating packs are on sale for $1.25 each as well. I’m only sharing the previews of the bundle and elements pack. Be sure to check out all the packs at Connie’s Gotta Pixel store.
I had my yearly eye exam last week and decided it was time Jessica had her first eye exam too. That allowed for some great photos to scrap with this kit.
First up is about Jessica’s exam. Journaling reads: I felt that it was about time for Jessica to have her first eye exam, so I scheduled an appointment for her directly after my exam. At first she was a little unsure, but she did great! Her vision is a touch far-sighted, but is typical for kids her age and she will probably outgrow it.

Next up is a layout with Janette trying on frames. Journaling reads: Jessica and I had our eyes dilated as part of our eye exams. While we waited for the drops to work their dilation magic, we went out to the waiting area to check out frames to pass the time. Janette really liked this pink pair. She kept calling them sunglasses, the only kind of glasses she normally wears, and wanted to take them home. I told her she couldn’t, but she could take home the roll-up style sunglasses they give you after dilating your eyes. That placated her.
