What a Difference 15 Years Makes
On Easter Sunday 2012, we decided to recreate a photo from Easter 1997.

Another Try for Digital Elite Team (fail)
I decided to enter the contest at Digitial Scrapbook Place for one last time. Again, I did not make the team.
For round one, we were given a wonderful kit by Z (Elizabeth Weaver) called January Birthstone: Garnet. Since I have one grandson born in January, I decided to use some of his photos. I called the layout "Born to Wear Garnet" since he is now a junior at the University of South Carolina where the team colors are garnet and black.
The second round was a wonderful kit by Erica Belton: Industrial Revolution Value Collection. I loved the colors and gears and rust and everything about it. I used some close-up of Rusty's new bike and called it "My Rival".
For the final round, we were to create 3 layouts using kits of our choice.
This layout is made with "Shades of Color: Green" by Meryl Bartho. I was honored to have this layout named "Layout of the Day". I used the photos of my St. Paddy's Day table for this one.
This next layout is my gorgeous granddaughter. We did a photo shoot while we were at the beach and I got some wonderful shots of her. This fantasy kit is by Nicole Young called Beyond the Moon Value Collection. I also used some bling from Marcee Duggar called Splatter Dottee Silver Set 1.
My third layout in this round also uses photos from the beach and a kit by Carole Harden, At One with the Sea Value Collection.
I have so many more photos from the beach to process and post, it may be another month before I finish them up. I took them all in camera RAW since I am really trying to learn to process photos better, but we'll see.

Two Ring Ceremonies
I have two grandsons in the class of 2013; one at the University of South Carolina and one at Lancaster High School. They each received their class rings recently. Of course, I had to take some pictures and commemorate the occasion with some digital scrapbook layouts. PawPaw and I are so proud of you, Russ and Evan.

Rainy Golf Day and Columbia Visit
The LHS golf season has been rained out until Tuesday. When play started it was overcast and had been misting rain and cold most of the day. The rain came during the match making for some bad playing conditions. Evan played in a short sleeved shirt but I was in the cart with a blanket bundled up against the elements.
See the rain drops on the water hazard??
Oh, no. Sand trap.
On Wednesday, I went to Columbia to have lunch with Russ. We ate at a Five Points area restaurant called Pawley's Front Porch. I had the most wonderful salad that I hope I can recreate at home.
Then he took me on a tour of the Woodlands; the apartments he will be moving into in August for the next school year. The model we toured was the 3 bedroom townhouse; he will be living in a 4 bedroom which is a bit different, but decorated the same.
Evan checking out the fridge.

Grandson #1 Goes to College
Russ has moved into his dorm room at the University of South Carolina in Columbia and begins classes on Monday. I have been feeling so sad about his going away even though it is only an hour away.
I did this layout during his senior year of high school, but it just seems so appropriate now.
He will be 20 on Jan 11. I don't know where the years have gone; they have really been runaway years.
Russ, I love you and am so proud of you.
