Half-time

Published by Julia Stainton at 9:01 pm under Digital Designs, Scrapbooking, personal

Well…this is NOT a football post. Actually this is a milestone for me. Today is our 19th anniversary and we’ve been married half of my life. I guess that gives my age away but I’m really not one of the people who hide it. While we’ve had hard times, we’ve had lessons, we’ve also had many, many joys that far outweigh them. I know I am incredibly blessed.

OK I will admit this “recent” photo is a couple years old. I really wanted to create this layout today to remember my thoughts and I just couldn’t find anything more recent of us together.

Take care!

    Happy Anniversary Julia to you and your husband! And I thought I was young getting married at 20! That is a beautiful wedding photo and a great page; time to take a new picture of the happy couple, eh?

    Happy anniversary, Julia. Beautiful layout. I really like the faded out larger picture in the background repeated by the small one.

    Oh my goodness! Julia! Happy belated anniversary! Your page layout is soooo awesome! I love the panel on the right where your picture is enlarged and faded. Sooo cool! Hope you had a great one!

    aawww!! ya’ll look so cute!!! i’m not one to hide my age either–doesn’t bother me that i’m 41 until my kids start asking me if i knew abraham lincoln. nice.

    That is a gorgeous layout! I too, love the faded picture in the background! I have to say, I don’t think I could find a recent picture of the two of us together either. Those are so far and few between! Congrats on 19 years! We celebrated 14 this year! Life is definitely a rollercoaster, but that brings you so much closer together!! I love where we are right now too!! :)

    Hope you had a great anniversary! I really like this layout you did - it’s a great page and very soft looking. I really like the faded larger picture - it really gives the whole page a soft timeless sort of look. Really nice!
