#11 My Own Two Hands

I made this photostory a few years ago with my four year old preschool class. In August my friend and co-teacher, Cathy Gruenwald, and I are leading two workshops at the Early Childhood Conference at Concordia University-Chicago. This is the one we will "show and tell" and make from scratch with the adults who are attending. It will be a great fun and learning time!

#10 Cub Friends

2005 - We were at a cubs game once and four friends from long ago met up for a game, and had not been together for years! They asked me if I would take a photo of them and email it later. I ended up taking more than one and making this photostory for them. Needless to say, they were thrilled to get it!

#9 Flood in our Neighborhood

2007 - Our town really got hit with a lot of rain! Behind our house the creek was over flowing and on our street the water was rising. We were right in the middle. In case you were wondering, the water never made it into our home. Thank the Lord!

#8 Ten photos in this photostory - Trip to England and Paris

These photos were taken before I had a digital camera, so a few years after our trip I scanned them and made this little remembrance for us and our friends, the Prohls!

#7 Trip to my favorite dentist

Jim Link has been our dentist forever. I wanted to do something special for him, so I made this photostory. He tells me how he enjoys this photostory and plays it every now and then. Last visit to him, he told me that he would like to have this played at his funeral some day. :)

#6 sister's anniversary- married 1966

My sister, Norma, got married in 1966. I scanned photos from the day and created this photostory for their anniversary, and added a current photo for the ending.

#5 Come to Jesus

I heard this song at our church (St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Munster, Indiana) one Sunday and was moved. I thought about all those in my life who loved the Lord and are now with Him in heaven! Photos include my grandparents on my mom's side and also the family photo shows my dad as the youngest of many and his photo is also at the end. Love that man and so thankful he was my dad and I will get to see him again someday!

#4 The wonderful George Inn - England

We flew into London this summer (2009) and went immediately to one of our favorite spots, the George Inn in Norton St. Phillips. We have stopped there at least 4 times on various trips. Great place! Harriet and Mark were great hosts and we hope they are there our next trip.

#3 Andrew & Laura - from the beginning!

This is the very first photostory I made back in January - May, 2005.
It took about 35 hours to make, so therefore it was made with the most love!
I "tweaked" and tweaked" it, over and over!
It was played at their rehearsal dinner and wedding reception.

#2 Heather does Paris 2006

Our daughter, Heather, went to Paris with some friends and I made this for her when she returned. Love that last shot of her under the Eiffel Tower! Fun music!

# 1 mom's eye procedure

My mom received her second set of treatments for her wet macular degeneration in June 2009. The doctor was very nice and I sent him this photostory with some photos as a thank you.
