Family pictures

My parents 50th Anniversary was this past summer, so one of the things we planned was to have family pictures taken.  I have 2 brothers and one sister. And all but, my sister have families and most of us live apart from each other. So we started planning this celebration and the family picture about a year ago and even then on the weekend that we were to be together it didn't look like we'd all be there, but everyone did make it for the picture. One of our gifts to them was a scrapbook. I did several pages of their parents, grandparents and siblings. Then we sent out info to their friends and family and ask them to create pages for this special scrapbook. It turned out to be a very special scrapbook and they love it.
All that to say- I am just now getting the page done for my family to put in their book. I was so busy preparing for anniversary celebration and getting several of the other pages done and I didn't want to put the page together until after the family pictures.
So here it is.
 This also meets the following challenges:
H2H Challenge  for the third week of January. It is a photo inspiration challenge. I used the browns, tags, and leaves from the photo.

  3. Fantastic job on this layout! I love the scalloped paper spread over two pages - it really looks awesome! My siblings and I did a scrapbook for my parents 50th and family photos too - it is a most treasured item and I'm sure your parents' will be also. Thanks for sharing with us at Frosted Designs!
