    Wenchs family stories thread

    My dad told me a story last night and I wanted to share it with you all. it has all come about because I am trying to find background information on a lot of the old photos they gave me.

    This is not an old photo, however I wanted to share the story, I imagine there would NOT be a photo of this story, BUT in the coming weeks I have more stories which do have photos....one that will require you have tissues on standby.

    So watch this thread, I will post all the stories and pictures here.

    For this kit I have used Moonbeams Tropical Splendor kit - available here

      yes, what Fonzzy said! I really am looking forward to more! I am glad that your father is able to have such a wonderful smile after all that he went through as a child.

        I think this would make a great Photo book to read for generations to come!

              This has taken a little longer than expected to put a few more stories in, I have been busy with the photos and book I made, amongst normal life business!

              These 2 are not the ones that you needed the tissues for that one is still coming, however still interesting stories :-)

                      So sad... Doesn't it make you ling for the time when there will be no more war as our Creator has promised in the Bible. War is so horrific and so many innocent victims. what a terrible time they went through. Thanks for sharing these stories kaye.

                              Well it's been a long time but a few more pages to add, not so many stories, but just old photos

                              This is my older sister and my mum taken in 1961



                              My mum just after she got engaged in 1958



                              My dad and his 3 brothers in their street in Delft Holland in 1946



                              This is my nana and papa with their 1947 Chevrolet, Dad thinks it was taken between 1949 - 1952
