First off, I finally got the Catalina mini album done! I’ve posted 5 of the 14 pages on the blog already, and I think it would be too much to post all of the rest! Instead, I’ll link to the Smugmug page which has all of the pages in order, so they’ll be easy to view:
And here are a few more LOs that I finished:

Babe, I know that even though we have our share of stormy weather, the sun will always come out in the end, and there will even be a beautiful rainbow to celebrate. We just went through a particularly stormy night, but it looks like we’ve weathered it through, and we will be just fine.
I want you to know that I feel blessed and lucky to have you in my life. I love you and cherish you with every bit of my being, and I am so sorry when my actions hurt you. I am far from perfect, and I thank you for your eternal patience with me.Credits:

This photo is only 4 years old, but somehow it feels like a lifetime ago. You were so sweet to me even back then, but somehow I just saw you as a friend. And now, I am pregnant with your child, and we are married and so in love and have a house to call our own. Its funny how things work out sometimes. Back then, I was definitely not ready for a serious relationship. Today, I cant imagine my life without you. Back then, I was looking for some one special, and I did not see what was right before my eyes. Today, I laugh at myself for being so blind back then, and I love you with every bit of my being. This photo was a lifetime ago, and I look forward to starting a family with you and a happy lifetime ahead of us.Credits:

Gem: I was out shopping all day, and I kept on buying baby clothes in every store! I couldnt help myself!
Ina: Are those for me?
Gem: ~pause~ Are you pregnant?
Ina: Yes, I am.
Gem: Oh wow, really? Congrats!
~another pause~
So is it a boy or a girl?
Ina: I just found out today. Its way too early to tell!
Gem: ~rummages through her shopping bags~
Here, you can have this one. At least it works for either a boy or a girl!
Theres a little bit of a backstory to the conversation on the right. Gem had recently bought Karla some adorable baby girl outfits, since she was expecting one. Then an ultrasound indicated it was going to be a boy!Thats why Gem asked me that question right away — maybe she wouldnt have to return the adorable girly clothes shed already bought! And thats the story of how you got your very first gift the same day we found out you were going to be born.Credits:
