About Me

My photo
I’m a Christian, first and foremost. It is the first description I can give of myself. Next I was blessed with a wonderful family. I had wonderful parents and we were raised in a Christian family with lots of love. I have 2 younger sisters and their children are like my own. Now they have grown up and have children of their own and they are like our grandchildren. My father was a TVA Engineer when I was born and we lived all over Tennessee my first 8 yrs of life but then we moved to upstate SC and have been here ever since. One of my interests is genealogy and I’ve been blessed that both my husband’s family and my family have lived around us within a 300 mile radius for hundreds of years which makes it easier. My husband and I have been married for over 44 years. He still works but is close to retirement. I’m disabled. I spend a lot of time on my interests and I use my blog to document my projects much like a scrapbook.

The Boys Learning To Drive

 When our niece’s children come to visit, they love driving Stan’s pickup truck in the big backyard we have. I made these digital scrapbook pages of the photos I took of them learning to drive in the truck.

Mom And Dad, July 4th, 2016

 This was a digital scrapbook page I made of my parents on July 4th, 2016. The Harris family always has a large family get together and cookout at Stan’s sister’s home, Kathi and Eddie. They have a pool and Eddie grills and we all bring potluck. My parents went several times with us to celebrate Independence Day.

Jenny And Her Family, July 4th, 2015

 Our niece, Jenny, and her husband were stationed at Travis Air Force Base in California in 2015. They were across the country from us! But they enjoyed Independence Day on base as they celebrated July 4th there. This is my digital scrapbook page of the photos she took. Instead of the normal red, white and blue, I used the photos and photo colors to determine the page.

Our grandniece, Savannah, at the family cookout on July 4th, 2015. Most of the family gets together for that event just like Christmas, Thanksgiving and Easter. We swim and play in my sister-in-law and brother-in-laws pool and cook burgers and watch fireworks. This is Savannah on Independence Day.
