So Blessed!

I'm going to continue to show pages from the album I completed for my grandmother, the pages today feature pictures of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.  She has been blessed with 13 grandchildren and 9 great-grandchildren.    

 Eleven of us grandchildren were able to make it for her party.  

Since her 90th birthday she has been blessed with 3 more great-grandchildren!

The last layout features pictures of my older sister and her family, my family and my younger sister. 

When we were younger we would always get together for holidays and now that we have our own families we have gotten together less and less over the years.  That really made the day so special for my grandmother that so many of us could make it.

A Big Project

 I recently completed a big scrapbooking project that I had started a year and a half ago.  My grandma turned 90 in May of 2010.  I thought as a gift I would make her a scrapbook to remember all of the details of her important day.

What I didn't realize is how difficult it would be for me because it was such a big occasion and that I wanted the importance of it to transfer onto the scrapbook pages.  I made the scrapbook pages in spurts and last May I had all the pages put together but they just needed to be embellished.  Life truly does get in the way if we let it and a year later I have finally completed her scrapbook.

 I will be showing the pages in a couple of post.  I used the retired paper packet Veranda.  The theme of the scrapbook is flowers since gardening has always been and still is one of my grandma's favorite activities. 

Today is my grandma's 92nd birthday so I felt in honor of her it is the perfect day to post them on my blog!  If I live to be 92 and have as much spring in my step as she does I will be very lucky!
