Thanks, Susie.

Thank you, Chris, for your wonderful and heartfelt words about my layout. I love this challenge and it really made me think ~ yes, I am surrounded by my Tribe and they have been one of my sources of strength, and contine to be. Another has been friends like you here at The O. Thank you for...

Oh my dear friend I KNEW you'd not only "get this" but also be deeply moved by both the wings and this picture. This picture literally jumped out of my Google Photos and said "Scrap me". I KNEW the minute I saw it that it had to be on my final November layout. I was looking for a certain...

Beautiful photograph ad wonderful journaling, Vicky.

Chris, this was quite a thought-provoking challenge. I had to really ponder on it, but in the end, I saw a pattern ~ light even in my week 2 layout of Ava's wedding. It was a gloomy, overcast day and we were losing the light fast, but, in the end, we "caught the light". Also I did "Grief...

Oh, Jeanne, everything you said is SO true about the magic of Florida, especially walking on the beach at sunset. The air even smells different there ~ I can smell it when I step off the plane even in the terminal. I know you'll have a fabulous time in The Keys, and I'm blown away by your...

Beautiful layout and conclusion to your collection for this month, Chris. You always create such cohesive layouts, and they just totally work together. That's a gift! Mine are aways just "random".

Oh Terri @Terri M look what Just found on Amazon:

Good evening, all. I just got home from my granddaughter Alyssa's 20th birthday party. Time goes SO fast and I'm very nostalgic tonight. It seems like yesterday that she was born on Thanksgiving Day 20 years ago. We lived in Michigan then and my sister, niece and her two kids had come up...

Thank you so much, my friend. I wasn't sure how to translate what I was feeling about "Savoring and slowing down", then I found this picture in my Google Photos. It's one of my favorite pictures from our time spent in SW Florida. I'm SO happy that you like it and thanks for your wonderful...

Thank you SO much for your wonderful commments. I'm so happy that it translated into the layout that was "in my head".

Thanks so much, Vicky. Thanks for the inspiration. I loved the part about slowing down. You're right, we all need to do it.
