Title IX - A mini- album created by Grandma

Check out this mini-album that my mom made! I love it - and not just because it features my girls! Most of the products she used are older products that I don't carry anymore, but I wanted to show off her album because I thought she did such a great job with it!

For those of you that don't know, Title IX allows girls to play sports in school. My mom was always very athletic as a child and was not allowed to play sports because, yes, she was a girl! How awful! I'm so glad I grew up in a time where girls are allowed to do whatever they want!


I love Rosie the Riveter on the front cover of my mom's album! What a nice touch!


This is my daughter Jasmine when she was on her Jr. High Volleyball team.


Jasmine on the volleyball team again.


My younger daughter Ericka followed in her big sister's footsteps and played volleyball for the city league.


These pages are all about me! I coached Ericka's volleyball team and the other page is when I was in the marching band in high school. I was on the flagline during marching season (I'm a nerd - I admit it!)




Ericka not only plays volleyball for the city league, she plays softball at her school!


And soccer! Ericka is our little athlete! She loves team sports!

Ericka playing volleyball on a city league again. She's getting older and stronger in these pictures and is setting up for an over-hand serve! You go girl!

Thanks for looking at my mom's album! Leave her a comment - I'm sure she'd love to hear what you have to say about it!

Happy Crafting!
