Yesterday & Today Begins In One Week & A Giveaway

Ali, I am already registered for your class, so I'm not sure if I am eligible for the giveaway, but I am looking forward to telling the story of my great-great grandmother. I was lucky to have her in my life for 18 years, but i wish I would have known her in this stage of my life, as a new mom.
I am so excited to get started in class and am thrilled to hear about the one hour average time length of the videos. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for taking this time with us and for sharing your passion for words and photos with us. You have had a great influence on the way I document our life story.

Since my dad was in the Navy, I moved all over the world as a child, so there is quite a story there--and most of that has not been scrapped by me yet! Thank you!

A story about myself? That's really a story about 3 women who shaped me, my mother, aunt and their cousin. I leave on Sunday to spend a week with them and my cousins on the Gulf Coast. I am bringing my camera and my digital voice recorder. I plan to come back with lots of stories and pictures. Thanks, Ali, for the fantastic opportunity to win.

I'd like to document all the little traditions we did as a family when I was young. We never took trips or family vacations, but remembering the little things we did really make me want to share those things (or simple things like them) with my son now. Little things like getting drive through meals and going to a park to eat, leave forks and spoons stuck standing up in watermellow rinds (that totally drove my mom crazy!), and just driving around and seeing thing together and talking - not having to do *something* all the time. Just being and enjoying it. I want to remember those simple things and share them with my son so maybe he'll slow down and enjoy the simple too.

I lost 80 pounds on WW 5 years ago. I have a lot of before and after pictures, but more importantly, I'd like to sit down and document all the things I gained.

I want to document the amazing relationship I had with my great grandmother; her stories she told, the time we spent together, what her house looked like, her childhood... I miss her terribly and wish my children could have enjoyed her company.

I want to be able to look at my life as I lived it in my 20's and now in my 30's, and also my mom's life at the same time. I want to see the parallels and the differences in the choices we made. I love finding out more as I talk to my mom now that I'm older. My sister is in her twenties now, and it will be interesting to have three stories to put together and see what is the same and what is different in generations of the same family. It's a HUGE project, but I'm thinking about it more and more.

I'd like to create a scrapbook and a memoir for my paternal ancestors. I am much closer to my mom's family but I am starting to have more of a relationship with my Dad's family. Recently I've been given some family artifacts and told stories that I would like to document creatively! I would LOVE to take your class Ali! You inspire me every day!

I would like to document the early days of my 4-H sheep project, how my dad helped me build the pens, made sure I took care of my animals, and how my mom would be right in the middle of our show preparations even though it always happened on mother's day. She was always a good sport about being stuck with smelly sheep instead of being pampered on her big day.

I would like to explore the progression of my family. My parents adopted me when I was 1 month old. They had suffered through 14 years of miscarriages. The day the social worker brought me home, was the same day they found out that they were pregnant with my sister. We are 8 months apart. It has made for interesting family dynamics.

i would love to work on a album about my growing up, the old school photos and the few shots we have of us all together. my parents did not have a lot of photos it was just not a thing that was a big deal...now it is a big deal! i would love take this course, but the timing is not so great...but if i won, i would make it work!!! so looking forward to following this course!
thanks for all your inspiration

I'd like to document the wonderful stories that my 95 year-old grandma has shared, and continues to share.

Fun family adventures as a child.

Thanks Ali! I want to tell the stories of all the little trinkets that i've been collecting for decades.They are glimpses of my pass.

The relationship between brothers (my two wonderful little boys).

I would love to document the story of how I have evolved as a mom.

I would like to talk about my childhood is so much to tell, traditions that have been lost, time to throw in practice

I would like to scrap my relationship with my parents and grandparent.

There is so much I want to document. Stories about my grandparents are definitely something I'd like to get on paper.

My husband's & my childhood stories!
Thanks so much for a chance to win a place in your class!
