Another 1st Day

I guess you know you've got a great kit when you can make two different layouts with it and still have plenty supplies left for more. This is true with this month's Basic Grey Monthly Page Kit. I was also inspired by the bi-monthly sketch challenge from SD4U. I was so happy to see I could put Alton on a layout with flowers without sacrificing his masculinity. The flowers showcased the pretty day and being outside. I enjoy having first day of school pictures look like the first day of Spring. Even though it's in the fall I like how it resembles the beginning of something new and that's probably why it's one of my favorite times of the year.

Ooh, just noticed I don't have the year on this layout. Gotta add that and then it's "officially" complete. August 2009. Woo Hoo! I'm impressed with my own self to have completed a layout from less than a year ago.
