I wanted to play with some of the kits I bought this weekend and so I went digging for old photos.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This photo is from my Grandparent's house 12/31/1954 ... I was going through old slides and found this one of both my Grandfathers and my Uncle Jimmy (My Mom's brother)... I had no clue who the lady was. I just called my other Uncle (my Dad's brother, as he is the only one left out of everyone who was at the party...) The lady is "Aunt" Kip a childhood friend of my Grandmother's. She and her husband were the only ones at the party that were not "family" so that is why I had no idea. It actually spurred a fond memory for my Uncle Pete and he told me all about that night. Fun conversation!!
TFL!
Oh I love the colouring here. The pops of orange on the neutral is so pretty. That old photo is priceless too . I have so many photos like this where I don't know who the people are! Love this :beat
 
This is beautiful! I love the old photo and the frame you used with it! I loved reading your story about the photo, too!!
 
@KarenB thanks Karen!! I really had fun with this one as I love that photo edge and I really just wanted to play with stuff I bought yesterday and today being carefree! It also was fun to text my Uncle Pete with the photos and get some of the background stories I didn't know about. He had fun telling me and I had fun just smiling remembering both sets of my grandparents and relatives. I guess that is really what scrapping is all about :) Thank you again!
 
@dailydwelling thanks.. there was more to the story.. my Grandfather B sitting down was being funny and before this woman and her husband arrived, my Grandfather grilled my other Grandmother F of their background. When the couple arrived, my Grandfather B who didn't know them, acted like he knew them forever and made the Mr. of the couple, crazy all night long as he didn't recall him at all and my Grandfather B kept going on and on about things and people the Mr. knew. It went on all evening until my Grandfather B finally told him he didn't know him at all and was messing with him :) funny stories!
