Our Story

Our story began on a beautiful morning in early September 1989.  I remember the day like it happened yesterday. I was worried about the weather it was cloudy but the sun was shining and rain or shine I was marrying my best friend.   We celebrate 27 years of marriage this year. 

I have used this paper collection recently for my Niece Aryanna's Wedding Scrapbook and decided I wanted some of my Wedding Pictures in the same collection.  Here is the sketch I used from Stuck?! Sketches. 

I am also using this page as an audition for Shabby is Chic Boutique.

Look at those young kids.  They followed their hearts and six kids later are still in love.  I have to admit I am glad I waited for the supplies you can get today are much different than in 1989.
