LM 512 - Special Events - Christmas, Hanukkah or Kwanzaa

This month at Lasting Memories, we are creating layouts about special events.  This week, we are creating layouts for Christmas, Hanukkah or Kwanzaa.

I created a layout using a photo of my nephew visiting Santa for the first time.  I think this photo is so cute - especially since Mrs. Clause was there too.  He didn't cry, but he looks a bit petrified.  And OMG how cute is his sweater vest?!?

LM 509 - Special Events - Birthday, Anniversary, Graduation

This month at Lasting Memories, our theme is special events.  This week, we are focusing on birthdays, anniversaries and graduation.  

I created a layout using a photo of my grandmother's 92nd birthday.  Her birthday was in April, so it was during the pandemic.  Her nursing home was on lockdown, so we weren't able to visit.  We facetimed with her.  My mom dropped off a cake, banner and balloons.  The nursing home took a photo and sent it to us, so I used it for this layout.
