So, right now I am in the middle of a project for my grandpa, and really for my whole family. Some of you may know about it already, but I am making a picture movie for my grandpa. Over Labor Day weekend Ryan and I went to California to spend some time with my parents and grandparents. Since I knew that we were going to do this project I started to ask my grandma about old pictures and where I might find them. She said they were probably in the garage somewhere in boxes, but she wasn't really sure where. So, Ryan and I decided to go on a treasure hunt that lasted only ten minutes since my Aunt and Uncle's garage was pretty well organized. Anyway, we found four boxes of pictures with tons of framed pictures, a couple of old albums, and stacks of old nameless photographs that were so old nobody remembers who they are anymore. But Luckily I was able to go through all the pictures that we had and sort everything out and put names to the pictures that me and Grandma could figure out. It was really fun to be able to talk with my grandma and hear some of her stories.
Right now I am in the process of scanning the pictures into my computer, organizing them, and putting them into movie format. It's been really fun, and I can't wait to get the finished product out to my family. Anyway, these are some of the pictures that I found that weekend at my Grandparents house.
