going home notecards

 It's almost a year ago that my sister and I traveled back to the hometown of our childhood. 
 We went to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the church our father pastored for 20 of those 100 years. 
 It was a time we will never forget, rich with new memories stamped upon old ones.
And it seemed appropriate to make this month's notecards remembering that special time.

Please visit Vee's blog to see other notecards in this fun monthly "party."

    Best,

  20. What lovely photos! This morning is very brisk here weather-wise and it will be in the high 80's so it feels like fall. And then seeing your photos really makes me feel like fall is in the air.

    So happy you were able to go to this event and to go home again!

    They make such a nice group of note cards to use on many occasions - I particularly love the one of the Church - late Autumn with leaves just hanging on the trees.
