I had a wonderful online chat Monday night with the wonderful ladies at Heritage Scrap for our Life Book Challenge we are working on. They are definitely a hoot. I need to get busy on the life book I am doing on my mother-in-law Ella for her birthday. I have several pages done, but need to get more. This week is the Memories page. I think I will do one on their stay in England.
There is another challenge going on at Heritage Scrap called the Easter Hat Challenge. We are supposed to do a LO on some of the hats our ancestors wore. But I looked through all my pictures and not a one of them were wearing hats. Does that mean my ancestors had no class or style? So anyway, I decided to do a LO on the one who does have class and style (and it's the only hat picture I had). So here it is is.

Don't you just love those clothes? And see, we even found hats to wear, just like our ancestors should have worn. Not sure where we got those clothes, but I bet we were the best-dressed kids on the block. That's my cousin Linda on the right, and she definitely has class and style now. She is married to a retired Navy Captain and drives a Lexus. That is definitely class for this little ole redneck.
Did you know that you might be a redneck if you've been married three times and you still have the same in-laws?

neat page. :)
may I make a suggestion? Along the top, in a smaller sized font then the "We Remember" words, write "Micki and Linda" and underneath write the year (month too if you know it). One of the reasons for scrapbooking is to preserve memories... will we know who "me" is later on? Think of all the really old photos you have with no information on who's in it or when it was taken. But again, it's just a suggestion.
