My Digital Studio

Oh my gosh,

Remember I told you last week was my 32nd anniversary?  This is what Kevin built for me.  I was so taken with this gift.  He put his heart and sole into it.  Oh my gosh….so here it is….

 

While I was at convention, he made this book for me.  He loaded a copy of the program "My Digital Studio" on his computer, found all the pictures, scanned them and made me this beautiful book of our lives together.  He hit the nail on the head with this one (he's a contractor)…every picture has such meaning starting with this one!  That was us 33 years ago!

 

He started with my college picture, we met at college and then were married.  We lived in a 14 room farm house on a 99 acre farm when we were first married until we built our first house in Penn Yan New York.

 We moved to Ballston Spa in 1991 and bought 22 acres of land and built the house we live in now.  We have three beautiful kids.  His captions were adorable…on the boys page he wrote "Our New Family" then on Katie's page, he wrote "And the Princess Makes Three". 

 Then he put in all the colleges our kids attended…Hartwick, LeMoyne and South Dakota School of Mines.  We are so proud…by this page, I was a total wreck. 

 He even incorporated my stamping business…it's been a part of our life for almost 11 years.  The Cruise Achiever picture is really a magnet that is on my filing cabinet.  It was originally on the door of our cabin on one of our cruises.  He put my business card in there and my favorite picture of Shelly and I.  The #3 picture is one of the pictures he took OFF THE WALL to scan.  It's the picture of the very FIRST time I ever got to go to Founders Circle and there is he and I at the Needle in Seattle Washington the night before we went on the Alaskan Cruise with Stampin Up!

And this is how he ended it…There were many more pages and many more memories he added.  But I can't show you any more…I'm balling again! 

 Thank you Sue Hyer for helping him get it published!  He was so excited to give it to me.  It will be something I will cherish FOREVER!!!!  Thank you Kev!
