Scrapbooking

Brandon always hears me talk about scrapbooking and so has become very interested in what it is.  He also started asking to scrapbook with me, so of course I was overjoyed to show him how!

Yesterday we sat down and Brandon made his first layout!  I gave him a stack of photographs to choose from and he chose 6 of them.  He also chose his own paper (the polka dots) and then got to lay the photos out on the page however he wanted.  He rearranged them about 8 times before he was happy with it.  Then he had fun with the glue stick and glued them all down, and then decorated his page with some stickers that he chose from my pile.  Overall I think he did a great job!  He’s a natural!

The pictures he chose are of him watching hockey at nonna’s house, him at the firehall with nonno, mommy in the firetruck, the wagon when he went strawberry picking with papa, and him in the garage helping daddy fix the car.  He actually remembered all of these events and told me all about them as we put the page together.
