May Potpourri
« on: April 30, 2013, 09:35:48 pm »
May is the month we celebrate Memorial Day.  Let's take a minute and honor those who served our country.  My maternal grandfather (Army), my own father (Air Force) and my son (Navy) all served in the military and I'm very proud of their service.  No better way to honor them than to do a layout.

Your challenge is to use the flag on your layout!  Here's one of my grandfather, James Kelley, who served in World War I.  The photo was taken at Fort Lee, Virginia in 1917.  I never met my grandfather, he died when my mother was a child.  This is the second layout I've done of him.



I hope you all have fun doing this challenge!  I can't wait to see what you come up with!
