Oatmeal's album

Oatmeal is an Italian Greyhound and he belongs to my son Matthew, who is currently serving in Iraq. I know Matt misses having Oatmeal around and so I scrounged around to see how many photos I could find of Oatmeal and Matt so that I could make this little album as a surprise to send to Matt for Valentine's Day.

This is also the first time I've used my new bind-it-all machine and it was really easy to use. I know I'll have a lot of fun making projects using it.

I'm not a good photographer at all so please know that the album looks a lot better in real life than it shows here on this slide show.

I hope Matt will be happily surprised when he sees this little album of Oatmeal.

  3. Oh this is wonderful! What a sweetie little Oatmeal is. You should put a disclaimer on this package to open it in private. He might shed some tears of joy when he sees this one.

  7. This is so cool. I love the name, Oatmeal, for a dog. We used to have a cat named "This".

    Your album is just adorable. The bind-it-all is fab, isn't it? I'm sure Matthew will love his little album. You're such a thoughtful Mama.
