What a fabulous time they must have had growing up together. I just had my sisters for a reunion and there were lots of stories told.

A beautiful memmory to keep, for you and your family.<br />Hugs,-<br />DortheDorthehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13685326242045661724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4520733318478817465.post-71193007372167527942011-07-25T06:21:23.517-07:002011-07-25T06:21:23.517-07:00Great collage.

It makes it that much more special, along with all of the pretty details. The red dress made from a piece of advertising is perfect!

I wanted to stop by and say thank you for visiting my blog, my family room/soon to be studio, as you have yours, well it off to one side when you walk in the front door, both sewing and studio will be have a makeover this coming year. My family room was a quick set up this year to see if I could figure out how to make it work. Some ask why don't I just use that sewing room/half garage, well it has no windows and is fine for sewing but not spending a day in there. So watch my journey as I think I have found my passion. I see you had a family member named Violet! I love the name and my Mom was born in 1908 so it must have been a popular name a that time period. Sorry this is so long.. off to Zinnia's class... then Nellie's, wonder if I can fit in one more:) I am retired so why not, all in time management! hugs and love, MarilouAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17175847527595328447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4520733318478817465.post-36610330001223438182011-07-24T03:49:36.326-07:002011-07-24T03:49:36.326-07:00Love this post!!
