TGIF!! Whoo Hoo! I am so glad that it is Friday! and not because of any great plans for the weekend but to RELAX and SLEEP past 5am for a couple of mornings!! Has anyone seen "Dolphin Tale" in theaters yet? Thinking of taking my son but he is not too excited to see that one. I think it looks good but I would love to get opinions from those who have already watched it!

Last weekend our 'WonderFALL" crop was a lot of fun and one very lucky someone will be walking away the winner of the Bella Blvd "finally fall" papers later today! Below are just a few of the great layouts that were uploaded for the crop!
