Heritage Keepsakes is going to be a place to share old photos, genealogy info and whatever else I can think of~
Please let me know what you think!

This first pic is for my Just Beachy girls! Thanks for a great class Wednesday!! Our projects turned out just adorable and I had lots of fun meeting some new gals!!

I found a slide scanner that really works!! It's a Canon 8800 and I am so pleased with the scans! So many of my kiddos younger years are on transparencies, now I can scan and print these photos that are stashed away in slide trays!!
