Photo Details
Poster: scrapladyandmore (see this users gallery) With the stars and curled ribbons from Sue Fata's Memories kit, I was able to make a companion LO to go with my And Owen Makes 3 LO! The family photo was a little blurred, so I blended it into the background and highlighted Lindsay and Noah's photo! Just got these photos yesterday by e-mail...hard to believe this little guy is already one year old! Actually, this is a pre-birthday celebration since grandparents were visiting. Looking forward to his actual birthday pictures in a few weeks. EDIT: I received a sweet comment on my And Owen Makes 3 LO about this beautiful family of mine so I thought I needed at introduce you to this lovely family as I will be scrapping more photos of them especially the boys. Though I would claim them as family in a heartbeat and am thrilled each time I receive pictures of the boys, I have never met them in person. Lindsay found me when she came to my MG (Myasthenia Gravis) website for help when her MG returned after Owen was born. We've talked for hours on the phone through the past few years...Owen was 7 months old when we first met online...he's just turned 3 in February and shares a birthday with my oldest daughter and Lindsay reminds me a lot of my youngest daughter...she's so positive and upbeat in spite of all she's been through and has a strong love and faith in the Lord. I have a lot of admiration for this young couple. He's in a residency program now and in a few years will be a Family physician. His hours are unbelievable but he helps Lindsay as much as he can with the kids. Though having children along with MG is extremely challenging for Lindsay, they celebrate every moment of these boys lives as they came after several miscarriages. Her greatest desire is to be a mom, so she gives every once of her strength to meet these challenges. They chose to have Noah even after Lindsay's first pregnancy and Owen's first year was very difficult for her. Now you know why I titled this LO Celebrate Family! Lindsay and I have been through a lot together and have developed a very strong bond as I'm the only other person with MG that she knows. It's been a joy to help Lindsay better manage her MG and we are believing for a remission one day! Kinda sounds like a proud Mom! Maybe I should have saved this LO for June when we are promoting MG Awareness month...but any time is a good time to support MG awareness! Lindsay will be digiscrapping one of these days...after they get moved this summer. So, until then I will be doing more LOs of the boys as I went through all my e-mails and put the pictures Lindsay has sent over the years into a 2 B Scrapped Folder!

Now there´s a wonderful idea. I´d never have thought of blurring a blurred pic even more and blending it in! This is a lovely page and Noah is such a cute little fellow, beautifully framed by the balloon with the twisted tie...another great idea. I can see Avery getting some competition from Noah now as one of DP´s cutest tots!
