Lots of Pictures

I can sit and look at pictures for hours. My mother was always taking pictures and home movies as we were growing up and now these memories are so special to me. When my Aunts all get together they sit and go through everyones new pictures - so this is a family obsession that was passed on to me and now I am thrilled to know that my daughter will be blessed with the same obsession. The greatest gift that I could pass on to my children is a trunk full of memories and knowing that they will honor this and keep passing it on. What a wonderful legacy!!

That is wonderful that you have passed on this family obsession! I used to look thru photos w/ my great aunts as a child (They were all from Lebanon) and enjoyed hearing the family history. Your children will cherish these memories!

I can look through photos for hours!! In fact, I'm headed to find my jr high yearbooks because a blogger friend in TX and I just realized we went to jr high together. How cool is that?!

I'm spending this snow Sunday getting caught up on my blogging friends' happenings! Good to see you!
