Happy Birthday, Grandma!
This post is a little overdue. My Grandma Ruth turned 80 on July 24 and we had a BIG party for her on Saturday at my parents' house. It was a really nice party and everyone was able to make it. After hearing about a really cool idea from Megs, I decided I needed to do this too. I asked G'ma to write down her life story or as much as she could remember and told her what I wanted to do with it. I recorded her reading her life story and then I scanned a bunch of photos she gave me and we put it altogether in a cool movie using iMovie. Originally, I wanted to do all of the editing myself but the version of iMovie I had would not allow me to do what I wanted to do it. So, Dj did all of the editing for me, which I was grateful for. It took a lot of time to do, but the end product is really cool. We showed it on her b-day and everyone really liked it. Anyway, I'll have more pics to post later from the actual party, but thought I'd post a couple of my grammy. Yes she's in a swimsuit in one of the pics--she loves to swim and tan in the summer and comes up to our pool to soak up the sun.
Happy Birthday, Grandma!

Love your background. Glad you got it figured out.
I think the only time I've ever seen my grandmotehr in a bathing suit is in photos when she was in her 20s (she's 85 now)
I see that your background is supposed to be different but I don't see anything. Your blog is white??????
Now I can see it. That's one that I picked during my crazy blog changing week :) Let me know if you have PhotoShop and I can send you the header I created to match this and you can change it to go with your blog.
