Did I mention he is coming home in 20 days? Hey, at least I kept all the pictures together in a gallon sized freezer bag. If anyone tells me "Those aren't acid free!" they might want to duck. Here comes the fire baby!
Now if I could learn from my procrastination with the next Elder Keith...aka the Spud Stud.(He's going to Idaho, get it...)
Anyway, I am rather pleased with myself because I have seen a HP movie and made major headway on a scrapbook.
Aren't a the little mainstreamer...
The above handsome Elder will be available August 16th. Applicants must be willing to live in NC and know how to 'go with the flow'. They must also submit to the Keith family's 'gauntlet of fire' aka, spend an evening with Isaac and live to tell the tale.
He does look kind of shiny, I don't remember his chin being so round...

OK, somehow my title got lost. So the first sentence makes no sense. The title was
COMING TO THE DARK SIDE!
I hate being new at stuff...gosh!
Ha! I was sitting there thinking, hmmm, did I miss something lol. Good for you getting the scrapbook done. I am such a slacker when it comes to that kind of thing.
Oh, I am not even close to being done with the scrapbook, but getting it started was in itself, a miracle. Today I stopped at an LDS bookstore and found...gasp...a packet of missionary scrapbooking 'stuff'. So much for my 'classic' look of pure 100% photos with a colorful background. Now I'll have to put the clever little stickers on there too.
Ugh..I have gone to the dark side!
Hey Mah!!! Hope you don’t mind me just butt’n in..
Good to know you are still around…
I was feeling like a love’n mom slipping all my Elder’s emails in plastic page protectors and calling it good….Till you went to the dark side of scrap booking…cute little stickers and all…Darn you having one more kid than me…I told my kiddies that mothers with more than six children were exempt from scrap booking cause they already done their hard labor in the delivery room….Rats…Thanks to you I just look like a slacker mom now….
Hope you don’t mind that I made your Elder famous. I loved the story of him fasting for over 24 hours till they found someone to teach…such a great example of going the extra mile.. I told the story to all my children…Relief Society sisters and shared it with various friends and acquaintances.. I used it to inspire my missionary far from home…
Save those photos in the ziploc for his future wife! Ziplic w/ photos, scrapbook pages will make a wonderful bridal shower gift!
H of Joy, where is your missionary? Wow, I almost forgot the fasting 24+ hours thing. He's been gone sooo long!Hey, let the story get passed along,that is awesome! Maybe it will morph into a Mormon urban legend, with him fasting 40 days and 40 nights, and baptizing an entire city. LOL! But seriously, thanks, I hope he inspired a few people to call on the powers of heaven.
I also have all the letters in the notebook with the plastic (acid acid!) sheet protectors. That job goes to my 11 year old.
I wonder what sticker I put next to the picture of him kneeling on the sidewalk with a fellow, praying. The said fellow's Coor's can safely parked next to them.
'Happy Hour of Prayer?'
I'm sorry I broke the code of ethics we mothers of huge fams have. Believe me when I tell you, it is more of a photo album than scrapbook. Please don't shun me, sob sob!
Oh, and Lupe, good idea for the zip locks full of photos. Now, to find the perfect daughter in law....
