You know how you never expect it to take as long to unpack and get settled as it ends up taking, right?? Well, it has proven to be true in so many ways for our family! Take moving and add two trips, broken washer and dryer and 4 kids and you get the picture! Thankfully, all the travels are done (for now, anyway!) and we're starting to hang pictures on the walls and actually have a place for almost everything!

One of the big things I have yet to tackle is my scrapbook space. I have taken over our computer armoire and I think it is going to work very well for me! It's deep enough and just might have enough space for all my goodies! I can hardly wait until I have time to sit down and USE it and even just get it all organized. Funny how organizing scrapbook stuff can actually be fun, but organizing a coat closet is a chore!

Well, with October just around the corner, I thought I would share a few "Fall" ideas with you. I love taking interesting photos to use as accents in my layouts. Why not take a photo of the inside of a pumpkin before you carve it out? Or snap a shot of the seeds that you roasted?

A neat perspective on the changing leaves might be to take a photo under a tree looking up. I think this would be great for a child's layout of them looking at a tree.

Fall is apple season, too! You could make a mini album with all the yummy recipes you make from apples! This kind of album also makes a great gift for a new bride who would love to have a bunch of family recipes.

Want so fall titles? Try these out for size!

Falling for You
Leaf me Alone! (Temper tantrum outside?)
