Today, June 3, would be my maternal grandparents' 80th wedding anniversary! Unfortunately, my grandfather died in 1954 and my grandmother in 2000. My grandfather was one of six children; his mother died when he was a youth, and his father was a rural mail carrier in Minnesota. My grandmother was the only girl (and the youngest child)in a family of 3 boys, so she was probably a little spoiled - even in the early 1900's. As a sidenote, my maternal great-grandparents did celebrate 79 years of marriage, before my great-grandfather passed away at the age of 100!
I love this wedding photo, and have tried to scrapbook it a dozen times (well, okay, maybe 4 or 5 times). I like each one of the attempts I've made, but have never fallen in love with any of them, so I just keep looking and trying. Following are my latest two digital attempts. I used Stampin' Up!'s "My Digital Studio" for both. I love layouts with lots of flowers and bling on them, but, when I work on a layout, it all seems foreign - like it doesn't belong, so I wind up with pretty sparse layouts.

Have a great week!
Pat
