My Digi-Scrapping Efforts

I've recently been doing some digital scrapbooking - and find it to be a very satisfying way to preserve some special memories. I look forward to doing more - with pictures from our past as well as our future. Hope you enjoy them as much as I have enjoyed making them.


A tribute to one of my favorite people - My Dad!
The following needs no explanation!
aah sweet memories. . .

Our Grandson's High School Graduation

On Sunday, May 24, 2009, our first grandchild graduated from Kaneland Senior High School, making us appreciate even more the treasured times spent with our family. We are so very proud of the achievements of our family, but more so of the fact that they all have Jesus in their hearts! We have watched Kyle grow from a busy baby boy, to an even busier young man, one that has never seen a stranger and often argues with a sign post! We are proud of his academic achievements and awards but even more so of his ability to make friends and be a friend to not only his peers but those older and younger. He is a born leader and we anticipate great things from him and know that the Lord has a special place in his service for our Kyle. We love him dearly and thank the Lord every day for allowing us this special gift.



Maybe someday I'll learn how to move pics from Photobucket in a size that can be seen - until then, enjoy what I have. Posted by one proud KATSGRAM!

And got it cleaned just in time to go to church!
