A couple of scrapbook pages - Baba's Baby, Playing with the new shutter release at LL Bean

While we were at LL Bean after Christmas I found an app called BubbleFrame where you can put pictures in "bubbles" on a scrapbook page.  I had fun playing with it.

One night when Paul was sitting in his chair with Miriam, he took a series of "selfies" of him and Miriam.

While we were in Maine we bought a shutter release for my iPhone.  I have a little tripod and we set it up on the next table at LL Bean and tried out the shutter release.  I worked really well!

What a nerve-wracking day Sunday was!  I think we all underestimate colds, I know I do - until I get one!  But when a baby gets a cold, it's scary.

Thank God she's home now.  Whatever kind of cold virus this is, it has gone through the whole family.  Kristen is still getting over it, and now Janelle, Paul and I have it.  The only one who has escaped so far is Mark.  He's next.

A scrapbook page from 2012 - Build A Bear for Marley's and Mason's birthdays

These two pages are basically the same, except for the journaling on the second page.  These are to go into Marley's and Mason's scrapbooks.

Dot's Restaurant in Wilmington, VT

On the day after Thanksgiving Paul and I took a ride to Wilmington, Vermont and went to Dot's Restaurant.

Dot's was destroyed in Hurricane Irene in August 2011.  They had to totally rebuild and finally opened again in December 2013.

This was the  first time that we had been there since their re-opening.  The food was as good as we remembered!

Throwback Thursday - Thanksgiving in the '50's

Oh my, how times have changed.

How many men eat Thanksgiving dinner in a dress shirt and tie anymore, especially in their own house?

My grandfather is on the far right.  I remember him as a t-shirt and flannel shirt kind of guy.  Not on Thanksgiving, I guess. The guy next to my grandfather is my Uncle Bob, and then my aunt Ettie.  The couple next to them were friends of my aunt and uncle.  I can't remember their names.

I'm so thankful to have these old pictures; slides that my aunt Dot took.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
