Layout: Hide and Seek

This is one of the layouts I made during the ADSR last year. I am patiently (okay....maybe not patiently) waiting for this year's contest to begin!!!

Journaling: One of my hobbies is genealogy and one of my favorite places to go is a cemetery. Almost any cemetery will do...but I especially like the older ones. Cemeteries are quiet and peaceful. I enjoy walking around reading the names and looking at the beautiful artwork on the stones. And, if I get lucky, sometimes I find a long lost relative or two! I read once that, “Genealogy is like playing hide and seek: They hide...I seek!” and I couldn’t help but chuckle...how true that statement is! I searched for years to find the gravestones of my great great grandparents and words can’t even begin to describe the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction I felt when I finally found them!
