~Ladies' Fun Scrapbooking Night!~

~Our people here in Colombia have always loved looking at my scrapbooks.  So, knowing this, years ago I gave Sis. Farly a Creative Memories Scrapbook, pages, protectors and some tape for a gift.  I told her that one day I would help her scrapbook that album using my papers, and embellishments that I have. 
Many DEAR friends have given me a lot of nice Scrapbooking things, so I wanted to share my blessings!  =) 
A few weeks ago I talked to Farly and she wanted to use her scrapbook that I gave her to scrapbook Nataly's birthday party.   So, we arranged for their family to come to our house on a Friday evening.  We bought pizza for supper (so we ladies wouldn't have to cook and could start scrapbooking. =)~

~Enjoying each other and our pizza! =)~
~We had developed 172 pictures of Nataly's 15th birthday party (Quinceañera) that we had in August 2011, and we ladies spent the evening scrapbooking. ~
~Kimberly and Nataly scrapbooking in our living room.~
~I scrapbooked one page for them to see what I do...and it didn't take long and they had caught the hang of it, and were scrapbooking pages right and left.  =)   The Lord REALLY helped us and they seemed to really enjoy the art of Scrapbooking!~ 
~We had a lot of FUN...and even had some little "Helpers" (like sweet Mary)! =D ~
~We worked for around 4 hours and FINISHED putting all of the pictures on the pages! (There were a few pics that were copies or extras, so we scrapbooked a tad less than 172.)~
~Kimberly and Nataly seemed to have fun.  We heard lots of laughing coming from their table. =) ~
~Bro. Jimmy enjoyed seeing all of my scrapbooking tools, fun papers, embellishments, etc.  
Later I'll post pics from another Fun evening that we met at their house and looked over our scrapbook pages again and finished them by adding stickers, embellishments, writing info, dates, etc. 
I'm so HAPPY that Nataly's scrapbook is done now, and the Lord helped it turn out so Beautifully! 
Nataly and her family are SO HAPPY with it!~
~Nataly and Gaby spent the night with our girls. 
Here we are eating lunch together on Saturday.  Here's the kids outside with our neighbor Nicolas.~
~And us inside eating lunch.  Bro. Jimmy and Sis. Farly came a little later. 
It was such a fun 2 days together! 
How we love our precious friends/Brother/Sisters in the Lord...Bro. Jimmy, Sis. Farly, Nataly, and Gaby. ~

I believe I could eat a piece of that pizza myself! It looks good!
Boy, Miss Mary is right up there with the Big Dogs, helping to work on the scrapbook. Smile!
Kimberly's hair looks so pretty in that "Messy Bun". (I think that's what you girls call them.?) The top of Noah's head at the table with you girls looks exactly how Phillip's used to look. In fact, I would have thought that was a picture of Phillip's head, had not so many years gone by.
Little Miss Sarah is going to get one big hug from me when I see her again!
I think I'm going to die of yearning if I see too many more pictures of my grandkids and don't get to hug them!
This looks like it was a very good scrapbooking session. With Love, Mom D
