MY Face Book

It is so fun reconnecting with people I have not seen in many years through FB.  Its funny how seeing one face can bring back so many memories...case in point, Judy.  She was one of my closest friends throughout my school days, and I began every school day during high school with a morning walk with her.  I decided that I would begin yet another project, MY FACE BOOK,  bits and pieces of memories with faces of special people from my life.

Journaling reads:
Like many of us from the LHS Class of 74, Judy and I went through all 12 yrs of school together but she and I grew pretty close during high school.I lived in town and walked to school but I got there early so I could join Judy in our daily walk round and round the school every morning.
One of my favorite memories is the time she and I attended our first basketball tournament.
We were 12 or 13 yrs old & filled with pride in our school!
When we lost the game to our No.1 adversary, the Clarkson Red Hawks, and they threw popcorn
and toliet paper all over, she and I were mortified!
We did not know this hoopla was acceptal celebratory practice by the fans of a winning team.
Nor did we know about the traditional practice of players from the winning team cutting down the nets from the goals and as they did that, we cried like babies in utter shock!
We could not believe they hated us, the mighty Leitchfield Bulldogs, so much that they were trying
to destroy our beautiful gymn. I believe that night rather than wearing Bulldog Blue, she and I were wearing Freshmen Green!

Have fun scrapping your memories!

Debbie - I've just started reading your blog. What a neat idea! I may have to do a little digital scrapbooking. Looks fun! I was so excited to see Judy's picture. She was my next door neighbor. What's her last name now? I'll look at your friends and try to figure it out. Great to find you here :-) Betty

Bells of St Clements

“Oranges and lemons… The Bells of St Clements…”. The words of this old English singing game identified the church bells in and around London and are the inspiration behind Rina’s “Bells of St Clements” collection. Full of juicy fruity freshness in citrus shades of cream, lemon yellow, orange and lime green, this collection is sure to become a summer favorite. As part of the Door Buster Event , there will be some new coordinates for Rina's new (soon to be released) kit that are priced for only $1 or $2 !!! I have loved playing with this beautiful kit!

Hump Day with Teen Tude

Wednesday is Hump Day:and we are half-way through the week.  We here in the USA are looking forward to a big holiday weekend, the 4th of July!  I am sure my sons will take their kids to one of the fireworks shows in the area, and we always have a family cook-out at my brothers house.  I still have to try to get my stuff together for the big yard sale my DILs are having on Saturday.  But today, my husband and a few of his friends are meeting here to finish putting up the big 100 ft CB antennae tower for his "Bull Creek Sub-Station!  He loves to talk and there is always a listening audience for his foolishness on the CB.  That is about the only hobby he has, lol! For me, my love of digi-scrapping led me last night to double-check and finish some of the photo books I have to make sure they are ready for printing.  I added a couple of slide shows from these projects over on the right side of my blog so I hope you take the time to peek at them.  I can't wait to actually see these

In Memoriam Collection

Anyone who has lost a loved one knows how much they cherish them and want to preserve their memory. Putting together a Memory Album is one way of remembering them, now and for future generations. Rina and Kimberly have come together in bringing you the "In Memoriam" collection that exemplifies gentleness in strength. Inside this large collection you will find a myriad of embellishments and papers that are suitable for both softly feminine and more rugged masculine pages. It is delicate and sensitive, yet strong and thoughtful. The colors are peaceful, yet with an intensity that gives them strength. You will be able to choose from a number of color combinations: from crisp silvery white and lavender, to the soft glow of gold leaf and sky blue, from warm caramel and taupe to shades found in nature, and finally to accent colors of scarlet red, navy blue and dark purple. Often times our emotions are still very raw from our loss and we may find it difficult to draw on our own c
