Six Generations

This layout is not as nice as the one I wanted to upload, but blogger is giving me grief about the other one, so. I created this layout while I was researching my families geneology. Unfortunately, I do not have a picture of my parents together. He was shipped out to Viet Nam shortly before I was born. He was later killed in a car crash by a drunk driver in Texas while on his way to his next post. I was adopted by my grandparents shortly afterwards, so it gets confusing sometimes when referring to my mother, Verna, and my natural mother, Vickie.

This was a lo for West Coast Crop's 1-2-3 Challenge I started, involving 6 generations of women in my family, but did not finish in time.
I had just downloaded this Kit and decided to do something Heritage, and it has snowballed from there. I scraplifted Meryl's basic layout from her kit and added from there.
Because of this lo, I have found out soooo many things about my family I didn't know before. A cool note I thought I would share; I showed this layout to my best friend, Carrie, and found out that my GGG Grandmother, Amelia (pictured in the upper left corner) was Carrie's GGGG aunt. So we are cousins, I don't know how many times removed.
