And the Race is off

The starter pistol fired and we are off and running in ADSR 6.  Challenge 1 was sponsored by Digi Scrap Connect's brand new site.  We were to create a layout listing six fun facts about our family and at least one photo of the family.  I went with a simpler design on this layout.  The papers were from Cinzia's Hello Spring, part of the The Digi files in March, along with grungelle brush from Brandie Valenzuela at ScrapGirls.com.

Journaling reads:

Trivial, fun facts about my family:
  1. We've been married over 37 years and have two children, a son and a daughter. They have provided us with five grandchildren, with another one due in June.
  2. Our children all live within two miles of our house and we get together frequently for dinner.
  3. I am the family genealogist. I've been researching both my line and my husband's lineage for almost 25 years. My brother, who passed away 6 years ago, was very interested in my findings and helping me. He started a site for our paternal line and signed all his postings and emails with "Friends and Family Forever." Since his passing, I am carrying on the tradition.
  4. My husband retired one year ago and his hobbies are radios (building them and ham radio) and N-Gauge railroads. He has yet to build  his track, but has a bedroom stacked full of items he has purchased.
  5. We like to go geocaching.
  6. I'm a very picky eater.
