My Adventurous Life

The Audubon Aquarium of the Americas is located in Woldenberg Riverfront Park in the historic French Quarter’s riverfront in Louisianna. We saw lots of aquatic species of North and South America. After Hurricane Katrina the aquarium lost a lot of the species, because no one was able to feed and care for them. We were there almost a year later in July 2006, and they were not at the level they had before the hurricane. It was still fun to see! NOTE: This layout was inspired by Marjorie Eno's color challenge #12. We had to use at least three of these colors: Orchard Bouquet, Citrus Leaf, Pink Carnation, and Crystal Blue. I ended up only using the first two colors and added three others, so it didn’t up working for her challenge ! Colors: Orchid Bouquet, Citrus Leaf, Watermelon, Chocolate, and Colonial White Paper: CTMH cardstock, Citrus Leaf textured cardstock, and unknown pattern paper Stamps: Storytime, Charm Lower Case, and Calendar Accents: CTMH Pewter Brads, Photo Clips, Ph...

This layout was inspired by Majorie Eno’s color challenge #9 . We had to use at least three of the following colors: Hollyhock, Sunkiss Yellow, Sweet Leaf, and Cranberry. Thanks, Marjorie, for inspiring me to be creative and use colors I would never think of using together. These pictures of my daughter were taken during the summer of 2007 when she was 4 ½ years old. She loves to wear her princess dresses. Every time we go to Disneyland she has to wear a princess dress at least one of the days. We take a different dress each year we go. At the end of the summer we are going to Disney World which will be a first for my children. My daughter wants to wear a Sleeping Beauty gown. My daughter is so excited and keeps asking if she needs to pack. Boy it will be a long summer with her asking every day! She also loves horses and loves riding the carousel horses. She has to talk to the horse after her ride and will always give it a kiss. She does that at Lagoon (an amusement park in Utah), too...

I decided to take on Marjorie Eno's color challenge #8 where I had to use the colors listed above. At first I thought the color combination sounded weird, but later realized I had pictures of my daughter with Ariel which would look great with those colors. I am glad I took on the challenge and can't wait to do more! These pictures were taken in June 2007. Last year Ariel was my daughter's favorite Disney Princess and so far this year she still loves her the best. My daughter asked me the other day if she could have a bra like Ariel. I laughed and found it funny that she thinks Ariel is wearing a bra. My children and I love Disneyland. We go every year. I loved going there even before I had my children. One of my sisters went and said she didn't really care for it. I told my friend Andrea (who goes to Disney World every other year) and she said that my sister must have not felt the magic! I agree, she never felt the magic! Colors: White Daisy, Sunny Yellow, Clover Meado...
