1948

This is my grandfather's favorite picture of my grandmother, taken at a baseball field in Florida in 1948. My grandparents have been married over 50 years, and last week my grandmother had to move to a nursing home because of Alzheimers Disease. They live in Florida, and I'm in NY, but I'm very close with them, and they have been on my mind a lot. So I scrapped this page for them. It was a kind of therapy for me, I think.

 

I did this layout for Shalae's Brush Class.

I can see why this is his favorite picture of her. Touching layout, and very nicely done.

 

My GM also had Alzheimer's, I can imagine what your family is going through now. My prayers are with you.

I have a similar photo of my mom standing by a car and wearing shorts. It must be what they did in the late 40s! :) Nice LO!

Wonderful tribute page. I love the photo effect and the embossinging. Just enough ornamentation to make it classy but not over or under done. My grandmother has Alzheimer's, too as did her sister and mother. It is so hard. My prayer list just grew. Blessings!
