    I can hardly believe it's September, but here we are! In my household this season has brought lots of change and many firsts. I have girls in their first years of high school and middle school, we are trying new activities, and I may go back to work part-time after several (ahem... alot) of years.

    I'm thinking about firsts, and trying new things. So, that is your random challenge this month. Create a page about a first. The only requirement is that you use the word "first" or "1st" somewhere on the page - it could be in the title, journaling, or word art.

    Here's my page about my daughter's first tournament with her new soccer team:
    09.18firsttourney-web.jpg

    Easy peasy! Scrap about a first. Can't wait to see your pages!

    And as always: Your page must contain at least 75% Lilypad product. Your page should be posted to the Lilypad Gallery and then linked to the September Challenge Layouts thread so it can be tracked, and to this thread.

    The Lilypad uses a percent system for our challenges; the number of challenges you participate in determines the store discount you will receive at the end of the month:

    2 challenges = 10% off
    4 challenges = 20% off
    6 challenges = 30% off

    If you complete 7 challenges, you will receive a coupon for 30% off, plus you will be entered to win a $50 gift certificate from the Lilypad! The first seven challenges will be posted on the first of the month; the eighth challenge is the BYOC challenge, which is posted on BYOC release day. Each page counts for one challenge (you cannot use one layout for multiple challenges).

    Fun challenge! This sweet young lady was preparing for her first baby. It was a girl and now she is almost 2 - I'm a little behind on my scrapping!

    Sometimes our firsts can be little things that we hardly notice. I chose one of those -- a new food item for us.

    My layout is about the first time we had ever heard of "Trunk or Treat". People decorate their trunks and the beds of their trucks and pass out candy to the kids. The event last year was held in the parking lot of a church downtown. It was a lot of fun for the kids and we hope that they have it again this year.

    Translation:
    We are visiting for the first time BADLANDS NP this summer: a wonderful park between white stones, meadows, and its so picturesque fauna! We see our first bison and prairie dogs.

    What a fun challenge idea! My photo contains the word "first" but I also included it in my journaling. Cuz this was a big first for me. :)
