Our Gang Loves The Little Rascals Save the Day + Giveaway

First, they started out by mailing customers CD-ROMs, then moved toward mailing DVDs and now making it easy to share the memories via email, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and…

This is the fourth post of my STORIES OF MY LIFE series. There is something special about visiting your grandparents house or maybe even your great-grandparents. The smells of home-cooking. The rows of books that have been passed down. The musky smell of their furniture. Even though my grandparents have passed away, it doesn’t mean that their legacy has. I have been intentional on telling stories to my kids of generations of the past. Here I share some ideas on how to pass on the legacy to future generations. The Legacy of Memories Take pictures and record videos as soon as your kids are born with your grandparents and your…
