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

Scrapping Today

There are so many other things I should be doing today on my 10th Wedding Anniversary but Hubby had to work, and I have so many pretties that I purchased on National Scrapbooking Day-well, I just want to play!!! And I want to remind you that today is the last day to grab Rina's NSD Grabbag at the incredibly low price of $2.95. This Grabbag is so huge-it is one that just can not be missed! I made the following layout for Rina's Scripture Challenge with the Joyful Awakening Stacked Papers which is just one of the hidden beauties in this bag! I made the next page for the SBE-Layout Inspiration Challenge . It is inspired by Tomorrows and Yesterdays by Danessa . I used Rina's Secrets in The Attic Page set and the In Memoriam Element Set by Kimberly Stewart and Rina Kroes. It is a heritage page for the album I am working on for the Phelps Family Reunion. This next page was made for Build A Fairy Treehouse Challenge at Enchanted Studio Scraps. For this challenge...

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 ca...

Anchors Aweigh

In 1906, Bandmaster Lieutenant Zimmerman was approached by Midshipman First Class Alfred Hart Miles with a request for a new march or fight song. Midshipman Miles was a member of the Naval Academy class of 1907. Miles and his classmates were eager "to have a piece of music that would be inspiring, one with a swing to it so it could be used as a football marching song, and one that would live forever." The two men reportedly worked out the tune and it was first called "Stand Navy Down The Field". "Aweigh", meaning to raise or hoist, comes from the nautical phrase "to weigh anchor". The current lyrics, as revised by George D. Lottman, were adopted in the 1920s, and it is now recognized as the U.S. NAVY Anthem. "Stand, Navy, out to sea, Fight our battle cry; We'll never change our course, So vicious foe steer shy-y-y-y. Roll out the TNT, Anchors Aweigh. Sail on to victory And sink their bones to Davy Jones, hooray! Anchors Aweigh...
