Memories Journal Page

 Morning and last Saturday of the month and time for our last Smash Your Stash journal page challenge with Vicki from Stamped Smiles

Well the year hadn't finished with us yet as Helen not well and still waiting for meds changed and Matthew had another hospital admitance to hospital but at least home for Christmas -then to top it all eldest son had to have blood tests earlier in the eek and levels 10x hight than they should be!!!So I am unashamedly resharing my Spurn Point page as the prompt was memories and some of my best memories are the school holidays I spent there.

I had to include the lighthouse-love them reminds me of the one at Spurn Point where I spent many happy school holidays. My Uncle was a Lifeboat crew man and it was very remote with chickens running round-my Aunt/Uncle and two cousins lived at cottage no 5-its all abandoned now due to getting wash overs with the tides and can get cut off sadly



If you click on the last pic you can see the crew cottageson he left hand side and see how isolated it is-but a truly special place.

Sorry about the med issues, especially at Christmas. Can identify with waiting for meds, surgery 'forgot' to do my insulin repeat so had to call 111.

You journal page a nice reminder of happy holidays.

Oh Carol, I absolutely LOVE your page here with this theme! How nice that you were able to recreate those special memories of a place you visited with family! I love it! The background captures the water idea very nicely and those are some really cool photos of it too! It has been my pleasure to have shared this wonderful collaboration and inspiration with you for the last three years! I wish you and your family happiness and health for the upcoming New Year my friend! Much love always
