My Heritage Album

 

I been researching my family tree for many years. I've also collected quite a few old photos of my family and ancestors. I never new quite what to do with them. Then one day I saw a calendar at Michael's Crafts for a scrapbooking class. So I took it, and that's when I became hooked! I finally had a way to keep my old photos.
 So that's what go me started, and my heritage album is my pride and joy. I have others started, but this is my favorite.

This is what I have so far. I'm not done and I hope I can get even more old photos over time.
