Last week, Chase and I assembled our BEAUTIFUL and quite grown up looking wall unit! Thank you to my sweet in-laws for the WONDERFUL Christmas present. It has inspired me to continue on with my quests.
Family Gallery: the newest project. I have started collecting old family pictures as well as some new pictures of mine and Chase's "roots" to start a gallery in our front hallway. Over the years, I hope to add to the wall. As a child, I was brought up knowing my family's rich history, and it is my wish that my children know their heritage as well. This past Saturday, I bought my first 3 frames to start framing and getting things in order. I thought I would share some of the first photos I plan to include on this fantastic and exciting project!
My great-granfather "Daddy Bugs" a former bootlegger, 2nd from the left with a pistol in his pants. Classic!
"Flash and Floss" - My maternal grandparents, lovingly known as "Nunna" and "Poppy", not long after they were married.
My first hometown and a place that I hold in a very special part of my heart. Mammoth Cave National Park.

That is SO awesome!!! We have a couple of old pictures, but not many. I LOVE them! And I love your idea of a history wall. Chris would like that too - he is always wanting more "family" pictures and less "Ali" pictures. Or at least a more even balance between the two!! :)
I love the Daddy Bugs and Lucy and Ricky Picture!
You have just inspired me to start collecting old photos of my family! Family roots have always been a fascination of mine and I was brought up being quizzed on our family tree ;)
