I thought I'd share this bit of information with you. Please check out this Link, see the year 1839 & 1898. I'm always on the lookout for how scrapbooks affect African American history.
On another note: It's Birthday week in the Sanford household. On Sunday we held TWO separate birthday parties. Jerin had a "Top Model" party. Here's a group shot:
Jonathan, being the boy that he is, just wanted a friend to come over and play and he tried out his new skateboard (I did buy the elbow and knee pads the next day)...so please don't call the 'helmet police' on me.


this info is very facinating!

Thanks for sharing the link, it's amazing how far back the reference of scrapbooking goes, as well as the association of blacks to scrapbooking.
What up with Jerin and the pouting face, was she having a Top Model moment :-)

Thanks for that link. I'm going to pass it on to my daughter. She loves learning about her history and what a fabulous connection from the past to something we do today.
