My parents don't live very close, so it was a treat to have them come visit and spend some time with their newest grandchildren back in 2015. Any yes, that's the closest my dad ever comes to smiling!

I've got a bunch of that polka-dot paper and often use the polka-dot side but don't think I've ever used the backside; but love that you did. Another great layout and thanks for sharing with us at Double Trouble and Heart2Heart. Great photos of your family, and my Dad was the same way with his smile.
ReplyDeleteThis is an adorable scrapbook page! Such cute photos. I love the font that the "Smile" and "Love" are in! Thank you for sharing this with us at Double Trouble!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful layout, Cheryl! My Dad was the same way... he would laugh, but I don't remember him actually smiling. It was wonderful that your folks came to join you for the 2015 holiday! Thank you for sharing your memories with us at Double Trouble!!! -Donna
