Time to "Capture" the kit at Clique Kits

It's that time again are you ready to hop?  Welcome to the September Clique Kit blog hop.  This month we are using the Capture kit containing Cocoa Vanilla's collection, Hello Lovely.

I have loved this collection since I got a glimpse of it.  I was over the moon when I found out it was being featured in our kit.  I had a  wonderful time working with this kit and all the soft colors. 
 
This is my oldest granddaughter, Allie.  She was out trying to walk in the grass.
My grandson, Michael, riding the monorail into the Magic Kingdom.
Michael hanging out in the nightstand.
Our beautiful daughter, Stacey, and her son, Michael when he was in the NICU.
An old photo from the archives, this is my brother, Kyle.......a few years ago.  He spent a lot of his childhood wearing out the wheels on SEVERAL Big wheels!!

Thank you so much for  stopping by today.  If for some reason you missed anyone, here is the list of the blog hop:

This was such a fun kit.  I loved all the bright colors.  I think I got quite a bit of the add-on  papers, too. 

Here are my layouts for this month:
Our family this summer.


Our grandson, Michael, with his bubble gun.  He has had more fun with this thing. 
My other grandkids, Ashton, Eli and Allie and their cousin, Carson.

I loved the fun colors and super cute embellies that came with this kit.  I have ZERO paper left and a tiny bit of alphas and a couple of other things left of my kit. 

So for the challenge this month:  The challenge:  Celebration Month! This April, Clique Kits is celebrating our 1 year Anniversary. We are so excited that we have been able to share our passion for scrapbooking and build such a supportive international community. Show us a celebration of any kind for this month's Pep Rally- it could be a birthday, anniversary, wedding, reunion, or just an everyday party...you can either show us in a layout, make a card for any celebration, or  show us how you use your supplies for party decor-the sky's the limit! Even if you don't have anything celebration themed to scrap this month- feel free to share in the body of your post something you are celebrating in the month of April.   (The 25th will be a very special day in our family it will be my grandson Michael's 3rd birthday and it would have been my Grandmother's 93rd birthday.  It will be extra special as it will be our 1st birthday without Grandma, she passed last September.  Michael was a premie born at 2 pounds.  So we are very blessed to have him with us.  Several of my pages are to celebrate him.)
This is Michael celebrating with his own unique dance.







You have to look closely to see Charlie (the mini doxie) next to Michael.
My sweet little granddaughter, Allie.

I had a great time with this month's kit.  I got a lot accomplished and look forward to next months kit.
