In Record Time

I have never scrapped like this before... "In record time" as Wendy (badgirls kit club owner) put it. For some reason, my DT kit got delayed in customs somewhere and arrived at my home a couple of days away from upload date. I thought I would not be able to turn up my work in time. Thank goodness the kit was loaded with beautiful products which made it easier for me to complete the 4 layouts and one project in just under 5 hours. I definitely would not have been able to do that if the kit was not so perfectly coordinated. It made everything quick cause you don't have to think which paper goes where. And I was lucky to have the right pictures for them. I don't think I can do this again. I don't really scrap this fast! It sometimes takes me hours just to decide which paper to use. Then I take several more turning everything around. Anyway Just wanted to share these with you. These are simple layouts but they contain some of my most favorite pictures of my family.

I was lucky to have my camera ready when Nicole started twirling around. I brought her to one of the kid's events we organized at the shopping mall in our area and I was taking pictures of the ballerinas dancing. When I turned to check on her, she was dancing too! She does this all the time, acting, mimicking actions she would see on t.v. repeating lines, singing too!

These pictures were taken in HK Disney. She will be turning three the next day, and everytime we ask her a question, she would often always say... "THREE YEARS OLD!" haha too excited to grow up!

These pics are of Nicole and her cousin Miguel. He is Nicole's favorite! She talks about no one else but Kuya (endearment for older brother) Miguel.

These were taken during our family vacation in Baguio City. Bryan is always so busy working and times like these are rare. He loves Nicole so much and he works so hard for us. This is one of their Daddy and Daughter moments. I was using my zoom lens here and they had no idea I was taking these pictures.

oh don't get me wrong. This DOES not happen to me at all. It was the first time I made it this quick. It was just the time pressure and all. I sometimes take hours just to select the right papers! :) And then a few more twisting and turning everything in my page haha.
