Marley & Me

So I went to see Marley & Me this week, and even though I KNEW it had a sad ending, I still cried my eyes out! If you have ever had a pet or have one now, I am warning you now... take a BOX of Kleenex! It is worth the sad ending though, it was an excellent movie, very sweet and very true to real life. I highly recommend it... now I just gotta read the book!


So with the tears came some mojo I guess cause I managed to get a few layouts done... or maybe that's because I'm participating in a challenge over at ScrapCentral called ScapMap, either way, they got done and here they are... Both are wedding layouts from the wedding I stood in this past summer. Enjoy!
