Well, I messed up and didn't verify that these were still in the store before using them for my layout. I was searching through my files and thought Neia's "We Are Family" was perfect for the subject and also had the colors I was looking for. I just assumed . . . and you know what they say about "assume"!! So, my layout won't qualify for the Showstopper-Genealogy Challenge, but I spent so much time on it that I will still post it in the Gallery. Let this be a lesson to me!!

Journaling: This is my Family Tree. The Roots are my Ancestors and the Branches are my Descendants. I have researched my genealogy for more than 50 years and I have come to know these wonderful people personally and through that research. I have a rich and lustrous heritage and I am passing that on to my descendants through the photos and stories I share.
