Wow! and I think I'm busy. Love all your pics. They boys are so sweet. How do you post all those small pictures close together like that?..look neat. Hope all is well.
I absolutely LOVED this post. How absolutely darling to capture your day in pictures. I'm afraid mine wouldn't be so exciting. I need you to teach me collages too. My pictures on the blog are overwhelming. I must say...favorite picture was Grayson praying. I love it! Is Beckham on all bottles now? What a relief if even one a day to have yourself a tiny break. Call me this week if you get a chance. I love you!
That was definitely a busier day than most-a Wednesday would have been way more low key! (: Thanks girls. The collages I do in photoshop-just crop the pics and pull them over onto a blank 4x6 canvas. I know there are ways to do them in picasa too which is a free program to put on your computer. (: Good luck!
That is a great post! I may have to borrow the idea too! :) Although, it kinda looks like a lot of work! ;)
I miss you and would love to get together too! Call me when you have some time and let's set it up!
Love you

I love all the random pictures you took of your day. Your boys are adorable and I loved seeing them and you on Monday. Someday we will have to get our families together. :0)
Loved it, Karli!!! I totally should do something like that one of these days . . . unfortunately, it'd be a lot of me sitting at the computer editing... editing... editing... That's not as exciting. ( :
By the way, a really easy shmeasy collage maker is at http://www.bighugelabs.com. It's called Mosaic Maker, and it couldn't be easier to do. Perfect for those who don't have PS or don't want to mess with measuring and all that.
I love this post. I really love all of the pictures. What a crazy day. Your boys are so cute. We need to get together sometime.
