MIA and new freebie

Sorry I haven't been around the last few days. It was completely unintentional. I was at my brother's watching his girls, brought my scrapping stuff and figured I could scrap to my heart's content when the kids were asleep..................um yeah. Can't do much when the internet goes down day 2 of my stay. Of course not being the account holder there was no point in me calling, so I suffered. Suffer I did!! I'm back on my computer and with internet that is working...............I hope I don't tempt the internet gremlins as I already had my 'OMG what do you mean my modem's not working and I have to wait a day or two for the new one, I will drive up right now to get it' moment. I will tell you of my 4 days in twindom hopefully tomorrow........conversations with 6 six year olds in stereo.

Exciting news (for us anyway). The B-man's baseball team took it all on the weekend. They earned league champs AND they went undefeated in the wind up tournament to take that title as well. He was pretty excited as that's two year in a row he has been on the League Championship team and Tournament winning team, in 2 different divisions. He played very well as did the whole team. It was a fun weekend, great group of kids and great group of parents. Kind of sad that baseball is over though, love it. Of course we were at the arena as well........played 2 baseball games and then 2 hours later on the ice for tryouts.

*SCRAPPING ALERT*--Fresh Fruit Friday at Scrap Orchard

It is my favourite day. Fresh Fruit Friday at the Orchard and lots of goodies in the market as well. The Pineapple Queen herself, miss Shauna from Pineapple Plantation has 2 kits out this week, one is her own called Mum's the Word and the next is a collab called Office Romance. I had the privilege of taking Mum's the Word (image is linked)on a test drive and created a layout using it. Love the colours and the feel of this kit. Shauna also has a freebie addon on her blog for this kit which you can find here; Mum's the Word freebie. Of course this kit is on sale for the first week of release, so run quick, get it.


Here is a template for you to celebrate the season that is in fact around the corner. I will do a pumpkin one soon I think..............maybe even apples. Need my template mojo back, been on fire with layouts but hitting a brick wall with my templates. Here it is and I hope you like it

Congrats to the winning baseball team! We're gearing up the the Little League World Series here. It starts today, so I'm sure everything in town is CROWDED.

That's a cute template and layout! Hope you have a great weekend.

Thank you for sharing this freebie with us.
Just a short note to let you know how much I really like it. It's nice to find something for autumn that isn't brown and orange.
Really love the addition of the apples!

Well, it is looking like Autumn here, but I am in Alaska. It has been like a rain forest this year here.
TY for the template. It is really pretty.
