Such a beautiful, nostalgic layout! I love those colors with the slightly sepia photos. Bring back memories of those days. How nice you got to see the house again. The alpha is so perfect and pretty for this.

Robbi, this is a wonderful page!!! I love how you used my past posting prize kits together! I love how you scrapped these old photos and the story about them is so heartfelt. I used to go with my Mom and Aunt to the town that they grew up in from small kids to teens. To hear their stories and then seeing the houses, was quite eerie. Love it! Thanks so much for sharing this page and for joining in the ABC Challenge.

Lovely page! I would give ANYTHING to go back to 2 of my childhood homes, as well as my Grandmothers! My brother once had the nerve to walk right up to the front door of my Grandma Jay's old house and tell them who he was and ask if he could come in and take a look around the whole house! I never would have had the nerve. But they let him!!!! How I wish I'd been with him.

Cute photos. Love the layout. I am glad you had the chance to see your old home. I lived in Missoula, MT where my mom was born and she showed me the home from the address she had. Then Grandma came to visit and she was able to see and recognize the home. Then we moved to Spokane, WA and my mom spent her early years there. She again picked out the home and gave me several stories. I had better scrap those pics of the places. I have driven past several old homes and DD#1 got pics of several homes where we lived (only 20 Places). Must scrap those, too.
