PROJECTS FROM MAKING MEMORIES DESIGNERS:





Thanks Wendy and Wilna for playing along.

Wendy used the “Year in the Life” book to inspire her Family '09 layout and Wilna used the Text Tricks eBook as inspiration for her layout. Do you see anything familiar about the design?

We're doing some light traveling this summer--about 1 hour to visit Busch Gardens. Other than that, we'll be doing lots of staycations!
Unfortunately, we have no real travel plans this summer. We will do some day trips to various places not too far away, but other than that, staying close to home.

We have no travel plans this summer, so we are planning a series of activities that are local and mostly free. We are going to have one "surprise adventure" a week so that they can build their anticipation. The kids are almost as excited as when we take an official go away from home vacation.
I'm going to Texas in a little over a week to stay with my daughter before and after the birth of her first baby. Can't wait to meet Isaac!
Wow! Such great layouts! I thought the Disney layout was a new ebook at first!!! :) right now I am *dreaming* of a Colorado camping trip... We'll see if it ends up happening. If it does this new panorama line would be perfect!!! :)
We're driving from the Midwest to Florida to go to Disney for the first time and are very excited! Thanks for the giveaway chance!
No travel plans this year... we are using the money on household items... however, we are planning on a few days in Milwaukee, WI... take our 3 year old to the zoo and a baseball game for the first time. Think of all the photos!!
I'm meeting my husband when he gets out of the Gulf with the baby in Missouri to visit all of his family out there. I've never met 90% of them in the 3 years we've been married nor have I been to MO, so it will be an experience. Then again, flying with a less than 3 month old will be quite the experience as well!

We are doing the now famous "Staycation," visiting sites around us that tourists from all over come to see, but we're lucky enough to live in all year long {we live near the Great Smoky Mountain National Park}.

I'm leaving on June 27 to visit my daughter in Nashville, I live in NY. : )
We'll be going on a land/cruise tour to Alaska to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary--we didn't have much of a honeymoon, so this will more than make up for it!

We will be visiting my son and his wife in Denver next month for his birthday. We're thinking of taking the train. I have such fond memories as a child back in the 1950's when we used to take the train from Nebraska to California to visit our relatives.
We go to the Jersey shore every year. We live about 1 1/2 hours from there, so it is a drive. We stay at my uncle's hotel each year. We enjoy the beach and pool and relaxation.
Thanks for the chance to win! As far as traveling, we stick around close to home. We travel to the all parts of the state and camp. Living in Washington state, we have the best of all worlds....ocean, desert, rain forest, mountains, large cities, and rural towns and the longest drive is 4 hours!

We can't go far as $$ are really tight currently, but we do plan to go visit my sister-in-law and her husband for a weekend in July. We have never been where they live so we are looking forward to that!
We are going to Yellowstone in July with my parents and my sister's family! So excited for everyone to be together, I haven't seen my sister and nephews in almost two years!
DH and two DD are going to PEI this summer. leaving me at home with the last 3. It is just too much to fly the whole family to visit his parents. Lucky they usually visit us.
I am leaving tomorrow night for Michigan's beautiful Upper Pennisula where my parent live.

We can't wait to head down to sunny Fl for my son's 5th birthday!! He's finally big enough to really enjoy all the beach and sunshine we can stand!
We are heading to Kentucky for our family reunion later this month... Can't wait for time with family that we don't get to see enough and yummy food!!
We are staying close to home this summer... We are heading to Gatinburg TN for some great time the Smokey Mountains. If you have never experienced the beauty of the Smokies I really really recommend it!!
I can't think of any more trips for a while... in the last 12 months we took the family on 3 international trips: Brazil, England and Italy... until I scrap all the pictures I'd better be content with visiting my in-laws in Delaware!

We are off to north of Canada for a while and then to the east of Canada. Reminding our kids what a beautiful country we live in and to be thankful for what we have!

no plans...sticking close to home. The kids are involved in a few things that will keep them busy, so that's good :)
No big travel plans here, but we're hoping for lots of beach time!
OMG what beautiful pages! My only travel plans are the beach right now!
We are going to the Red Woods for a weekend, to Seattle, Washington for a weekend and then hiking to all the waterfalls in Oregon during the rest of the summer weekends. We definitely love to be outside in the summer months!
I'm loving the corrugated alphas. We're off to France as usual at the end of August. I hoped to make a short trip at the beginning of the holidays to see Cirque du Soleil but I don't think that's going to happen.
Just have to say I really enjoy all the ideas you have and share,I love and enjoy it and usually if I can't figure something out I will look in blogs first LOL!!then go from there Thanks again for sharing with us and the giveaways are awesome!!too!!
