In anticipation of the opening of the Big Idea Festival and to highlight upcoming workshops we are hosting class giveaways all week long.

 

GIVEAWAY: 2 spots in Scrapbook Your Faith  workshop by Courtney Walsh

Class description:

In Scrapbooking Your Faith you'll learn that you don't have to be a scrapbooker to preserve this side of you. Rather than feeling limited by a single medium, we'll explore a variety of ways to document your faith, including traditional scrapbook pages, journals, home decor, mini albums and more. You'll see that when it comes to collecting memories, the way you do it is secondary.

Learn more and register here.

My favorite memory was meeting Stacy J and her family! My kids were really excited to meet her in person because they "know" her from the class videos and all the years of me talking about her, lol!

My absolute favorite memory of this summer was arriving by plane in Tampa and being picked up there by my son, who spent one year in Florida as an exchange student. The moment we held each other in our arms was sooo good!

My favorite memory is white water rafting with my family in NY.

My favorite summer memory this year was going to Disneyland with my family. It was so fun to go on some of my favorite rides with my oldest son (14) just because he loved me, not because he loved the ride (which he didn't). Love my boys!

My favorite summer memory was when my mother and I discovered a new yogurt place with fresh pineapple frozen yogurt.

My favorite time this summer was visiting my sister back home after several years of being away. We drove from Rockford to Galena Illinois to see the historic sights, including President Grant's home. We were happy to discover a wonderful scrapbook store right in town. Just loved talking crafts together!

Fav summer memory has to be lying on the grass late one evening teaching a small group of teens about the stars & constellations, using the iPad & a star app to help! The ancient legends meet modern technology!

My favorite Summer activity was going "Letterboxing" for the first time with my grandsons.

favorite summer memory of 2012: watching my young granddaughter and niece get all dressed up like big girls, to go out for pizza with us.

listening to my infant granddaughter giggle

Every summer my brother and niece come back to Minnesota to visit. Everyone takes time off so we can all be together. This year we planned an elaborate cattle drive scavenger hunt around the farm for my niece's birthday celebration. she loved it and was really good at it. We thought she might find the homemade hobby horse cheesy or refuse to carry her own gifts (she can be a bit high spirited) but that was not the case. Then later that day when all the relatives came for the 'real' party Annie, our VERY pregnant stray cat gave birth to 6 kittens in a basket in the corner in the dining room where 20 people were having a birthday party for a 9 year old. It was such a magical day and we were all blessed to see the miracle of birth.

My favorite memory has to be my husband's graduation from seminary. He started seminary four years ago as he answered God's call to leave his career in catering to become a pastor. With 5 daughter's, we had to trust God would provide. I could not be more proud. Every time he preaches, I can't explain how honored am I am to serve with him.

My favorite memory was playing outside with my great grandson the short time he got to stay with us.

My favorite memory was finding our new kitten under the shed in our yard. Okay, technically our dogs found her and brought her to us, but that's no problem...it's just even cuter!

Just sitting on the back porch with a glass of wine. :)

We took our 2 kids to Disneyland for their first time! The whole week was filled with priceless memories!

We've had a full summer...and I loved every minute of it. But probably my favorite memory was seeing my youngest interact with his California cousins. We live in Washington and don't get to visit much. It was sure fun to watch him play!

My favorite memory was the week we spent in our travel trailer in the mountains, just watching the birds, taking walks and reading. I'm ready to do it again!
Posted By Jody  |  August 30, 2012 at 08:05 PM

My baptism!

My favorite memory is going to the zoo with my kids (it was the few family activities we were able to do before I broke my ankle and was off my feet for two months)! Love Courtney Walsh and Big Picture! Thanks for the giveaway :)
Posted By Elizabeth  |  August 30, 2012 at 07:36 PM

My favorite memory was our trip to Legoland, FL. Thanks.

This has been such a full summer that I don't know that I can think of a favorite giveaway, but one was coming home to our daughters after a week and a half away. SO happy to see them and see their reactions to us!
Posted By Miriam Prantner  |  August 30, 2012 at 07:18 PM

Wow, My fav memory is watching my kids become familiar and comfortable with who they are?
