Now here is a page the grandchildren will treasure some day! I have a pic of grandma at 99 ad I love it now that she is gone and I can see her old as I remember her.
This is so wonderful, to have your parents still with you. Treasure them. (from someone who lost her parents at a young age) Beautiful story, beautiful page! Love the plated paper, reminds me of a curtain.
wow what a beautiful amazing storie . thank you so much for sharing this with us here. and this layout is so awesome beautiful love it look at your stunning details wow.
So wonderful that you have your parents with you Cindy, despite their age and the trials and tribulations because of it. I love that they are still looking after their kids and each other...way to go Mom and Dad...hope there are many more happy years and memories!!
OMGosh Cindy!!!!!! I am so in love with that photo!!!!! It really shows "real life".... that's for sure!! I'm afraid hardships for the elderly is a BIG part of their everyday lives. Their devotion to each other is so endearing. Kudos to both of them!!!! This is a big fav for me beacuse of the content, the photo & the sentiment!!!
How sweet, love the design and your parents are adorable...I have the same pp from Michaels out at home ready to scrap a pic of my parents..you are so lucky to still have them just like me!!!
Lovely as always, Cindy - that pleated paper is really a neat idea - it's certainly go to be difficult at that age - I find myself slowing down and dealing with some health issues only at 70 ~
Cindy, such a wonderful heartfelt description. I think you are such a wonderful daughter! I would say you had a great upbringing and wonderful role models. I am so impressed with your parents and I am impressed that your mother is ready to scrap! Enjoy your vacation. I am way behind in galleries, but I will catch up!
Wonderful layout, I just love the photograph!! My mom is still active at 89 (90 next month) my father passed 3 years ago at 96. This is a time of their lives and ours too, tfs.
Wonderful page and photo of your parents,,,what a great age they are and how lovely for you to still have them both!! Love the pleated paper and film strips!!
wonderful page love that gorgoeus foto of your darling parents, and the cute lil curtain and would love to see your mom scrapping and preserving her memories of the past.....tfs.....xo
what a great pic of your folks, Cindy! It would be so nice for your mom to do some scrapping, especially to preserve stories and momories from her past. Nice design and the pleated paper is so eyecatching!
they are certainly a cute couple. it sounds as if they are making the most of their lives, including the drawbacks that come with old age (notice I don't refer to them as hardships). As always Cindy, your love for family is quite evident in your lovely lo.
For my Mom's birthday last August, I filled a scrapbook storage box with pictures, papers & embellishments in hopes she would make some pages. She is so creative and full of stories. Her age slows her down.
Mom tells me she ready to scrap. She wants to talk about the hardships in old age and about people she knew. I wish she'd stick with the later. I know my elder parents have lots of challenges, but they do the best they can and I don't want them to hurt in any way.
This is the picture I took I few weeks ago. My Dad is telling me about the their health issues. He has his right hand on her leg and is talking about her arthritis. Note her cane in the foreground. Dad will be 91 this year; Mom will be 88.
The 5 words I used to describe them in my journaling are: Olden, Couplet, Faithful, Nurturing and Mindful. They are all those things. They still like to take care of their kids, they are so devoted to each other and they are aware of everything that goes on. I love them with all my heart.
I modeled my pleated paper after a page by MajaDesign.
Finally, we are taking our annual February vacation and I will giveaway a $25 Scrapbook.com gift certificate to a follower next Sunday. See my blog for details: cindyspagesintime.blogspot.com
