Fallin for Fall

Fall is my favorite time of year!! College football, long sleeve tshirts, hoodies, bonfires... I love it all!!!
Here are the last two lo's I did for the October Afternoon manu challenge over at Scrapgal.com. They also worked for the back to school sketch athon over at http://sketchesforyou.ning.com/

This lo features my super adorable son Aidan. I was trying to take a pic on his first day of school and he kept making these silly faces.

This pic is from my wedding day. It is one of my absolute favs from that day. I love the huge grins.
