Grateful Scrapbook Page

Another scrapbook page inspired by a sketch from Sketch N Scrap (Inspired by Sketch #12):

Nothing "Winter-ish" about it...the photo was taken the weekend before Thanksgiving at my in-laws. But it was special because if we had not stopped to take it, we could have been in an accident...we were stuck on the road for almost 2 hours because of the accident!

Allright...let's take a look, shall we?

I'll add close-ups of the page later today...I have to go work! =)
