...As my Dad used to tell the six of us...what are the the three most important things in life?---family, family, family! He's gone and terribly missed, but the lesson is being taught to 13 grandkids and 6 great-grands and counting!...

Thank you so much, Janet, for sharing. The lesson your Dad taught is priceless. And how wonderful it is that you are carrying on his tradition. Again, thank you for sharing.

Its not only for them its for my brother and sister too. Its just a token of appreciation to show how much they all mean to me. As soon as they get it ill get pics up for you guys ASAP! Hope everyone is well.

Good Job!! I also have tears. Take plenty of pictures so the kids can always look back and remember what wonderful parents they have.

Just found this thread and read every post ~ WOW ~ how amazing to see a family share like this with everyone on the dis!!! I come from a close (RI) family also, but I am inspired by the sharing you do. You already have some great scrapbooks in the making with your thoughts and sharing ( and the trip is months away!!) I live in RI and have been teaching people how to make albums for five years ~ if I can help you in any way (free of course) I would be honored. Feel free to PM with any questions, since we are in the same state ( though I am ALL the way north ) would be happy to teach Jac & Co all you need to keep these memories alive for ever. We just made an amazing album for my dad's 60th and it was the most touching thing to be able to have the opportunity to open up and tell dad how much we loved him.

More important than posting here ( though don't stop because you inspire more than you will ever know) keep sharing with each other, it is all about the family and you have a terrific one!!! my best memories are wdw with my parents and siblings growing up, the magic lasts forever!
