Scrap Your Trip Adds 222 Items + Free Shipping on All US48 Orders

The past few mornings have been really foggy here in Orlando.  That “pea soup” kind of fog where you can barely see in front of you.  The kids thought it was really cool that it looked like we were on the edge of the earth.  

As we were pulling into school, Lauren said, “Look at all the fog on the spider webs!”  There is a sidewalk bridge on the road and underneath the railings, there had to be at least 50 separate spider webs located in all the corners of the railings.  Each one of them was covered in dew drops, so that you could see all the silken strands of the web.

“Ahhh.  One of the many beauties of life,” she said.

That comment stopped me dead in my tracks.  Would I have noticed the spider webs if she hadn’t pointed them out?  Probably not.  I was in “you’ve got to get to school mode and I have this to do today and that to do today” mode.  

And while although she is pretty mature for her age, she is still only 9 years old.  I was really proud of her for noticing “one of the many beauties of life” and for recognizing the simple beauty of a dew-laced spider web.  I have always tried to teach them appreciation for things like that in nature, whether it be a gorgeous sunset, a flower or a spider web.  Apparently I succeeded.

What beauty in life can you notice today?
Now, on to scrapbooking supplies!


  Reminisce has developed the most comprehensive globe trotting collection ever, PASSPORTS. Passports collects 72 of the worlds most traveled destinations.  From regions in the US to the top European destinations it includes the most traveled locations around the globe.  Each destination has a double-sided paper with coordinating sticker and we have them all.   We also have lots of new Christmas designs from the SYT Designers, including four custom die cuts – Custom Ornament, Custom Present, Custom Santa Hat and Custom Dog Santa Hat.   Click here to see all the new items:  www.scrapyourtrip.com/1216009.html    There are 222 overstock items are 25% off – click here to see:  http://www.scrapyourtrip.com/12162009sale.html
