Florida granny

Having seen the homes (remember: two years later!) you were definitely blessed to be alive, although losing one's home is not to be minimized either. In any case, I'm glad you and your husband and your friends are still around. ❤️ ❤️❤️

I feel so bad for you losing all those precious photos! But I'm glad you have these at least. I visited the New Orleans area in 1975 and then again two years after Katrina. The changes in the suburbs and scenes of devastation were heartbreaking. I enjoy your journaling and learning about your long time friends. I can just picture the bell bottoms, too. I love the design of your page and your mix of papers, especially with the lace edging. That's a lovely flower cluster, too.

Too cute for words! I think this is such a cool idea to show baby at each month with the tiny wreath. The photos are adorable and it's a lot of fun to see her personality and how she's growing. (Not to mention her wardrobe, lol ). I love your whimsical title work and how well the background graph paper goes with everything.

This is just a delightful family photo. And how wonderful and amazing that Talita is there with all of you. I love seeing all those happy smiles. Pretty page, too. I love your spring flower clusters and all the paper strips. It looks like that flower paper was made especially for the girls' dresses!

You've captured our feelings perfectly! I sure am going to miss your pages and those of our fellow scrappers! I love the sparkly edges of this page and those fabulous flowers with their touches of sparkle, too.

Another wonderful page for your book! I loved reading your journaling and like how interesting you've made this simple page design. Well done!

Lucy looks even more adorable with her face paint! I love the photos and the rainbows in your background. Mostly I love the sparkles and the sparkle advice!

What fabulous photos! I love seeing a part of your trip to South Africa. That must have been wonderful... plus you got to meet Belle! I love how you angled the foreground and especially like your take on "8". Fun and gorgeous all at the same time!

Sweet photos. I love the expressions on her face. I like the angles in your background and the pretty mix of patterns and colors. Lovely clusters, as always.

Happy birthday to Wyatt! I love the festive look to the page and especially like the corner cluster with the big 8. Wyatt's a cutie!

The love the ant trail here and your delightful clusters. Super fun!

What wonderful photos you have! This sure brings back memories. I love the glitter and the hearts and your paper mix and the marquee and ... well, everything. I wonder whatever happened to Huckleberry???

Best buds. I love it! I always enjoy that you add digital Scout to your Scout layouts, too. What can I say about your background elements that add so much to your pages that I haven't said a hundred times before? You have a wonderful style and your grandkids will love these pages always.

That lively background looks perfect with Michelle's photo. This is a WOW!

They look so excited to see this rare event! I love the photo and how the orange complements the blue of the sky. Gorgeous clusters as always! I sent you a PM. Did you get it?

What a sweet face your youngest has! Being a wife and a mother is a full time job for sure and not an easy one. How lucky that you've gotten to travel, too! I love the design of your page and the paper stacks. I especially like the buttons you added. I love buttons but seldom remember to use them.

I love how you put this together. All the pieces came together beautifully. What fun pictures! The grandkids are so cute and look so happy together.

Her smile lights up the room. She looks adorable with her bows, too. You made the most amazing clusters here! I love the whole girly look to the page.

Hi Ann! This is wonderful. I love everything about it and especially seeing the clock blended into the background. Ah... memories...

What a great photo! Actually, both of them. I chuckled at your title and love the background, too.

I enjoyed reading your journaling and learning more about your individual scrapping journey. It brought back many of my own memories, too. Scrap Girls has been such an important part of our lives: it will be truly sad when it ends. I like your clever idea of using products from the first and last owners of Scrap Girls. Well done!

My goodness, Kelly, you have outdone yourself.! This is amazing... and food for thought as well.
