PROJECT LIFE - WEEK 15

Hi everyone, welcome to PL week 15, l must warn you now, that this is another large post, l have done 2 double pages and 2 inserts, my week started out with working on my PL as l do , depending on what we have on , sunday or monday are my days for PL, then a bit of gardening and general clean up around the house, David had all the the week off and on thursday we drove to my sisters place to drop off some stuff for her shop and to paint a couple of signs for her, At the moment l am still doing bits on my family tree and since we were in the area l got david to drive past my grandparents house, which l have'nt seen in about 40 years, l thought it would be nice to grab a couple of recent photos to compare to one taken in the 60's. My nan and pa brought this house in 1958 and it was the first house that they ever owned and also the first house with power and water, nan was 48 when they brought it , its so hard to imagine not having things that we take for granted everyday. Nan called her home ROSEWOOD LODGE and when we pulled up at the driveway there was the sign, still called Rosewood Lodge, lm sure that would make my nan so happy, and the place has been well looked after and has'nt gone to rack and ruin. This week l also have roses from my garden, nearly the end of the Autumn flush, other bits lve scrapped about is the liitle change in my bedroom and all because l brought the letter @ at a shop, the next couple of pages are on a car swap meet that we go to every year, that Davids love, besides me of course( lol), we both love vintage stuff and his dream one day is to have a vintage car of his own. So here we go
Well what a marathon that seemed to be, l hope you enjoyed my week and had a great one yourself, and we will see you all for week 16........

  1. Looks as if you've not only been very busy at home (wish I could see more of what's above your bed!) but also been re-membering away from home ... How lovely to find the house still honoured and cared for.

  6. Kate I love the paper you used. Kind looks like what I had just used. lol. Thanks for stopping by and leavin some blog love. I love that you can keep PL simple or load with goodies. I am a photographer and so I love all photos and sometimes don't like to cover them much. Your layouts are great. I have a secret love for all things vintage. Though I am a modern gal.
