Book Description
The Benefits of a Family Photo Album Family Photo Albums Aren't Going Anywhere. Family photo albums are a great way to share memories with others. One of the biggest benefits about using photo albums is that they do not require any batteries or electricity to be used. Photo albums are easy to carry around for other people to view. They're not as popular as they used to be in the past, but family photo albums do bring a certain historic appeal and character to the setting they're located in. Photos can be exchanged and rearranged without the need of connecting a computer or device in order to transfer images. Family photo albums can be handed down from one generation to the next, allowing children and grandchildren to see what things looked like in the "old days."

“Being introduced to the cast of ‘From Harvey River’ is like sitting down at the family dining table. You’ll stay for the day then on into the evening as each new character pulls up a chair. You could not be in better company.” — New York Times Book Review “Goodison’s memoir reaches back over generations to evoke the mythic power of childhood, the magnetic tug of home, and the friction between desire and duty that gives life its unexpected jolts.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review) “[A] loving memoir.” — New York Times Book Review Paperback Row

Book Description
For many of us, our home is the center of our life. It is the place where our families meet and mingle, where we share our meals and share our dreams. So much more than just a space to live, our homes offer us a place of comfort, nourishment, and love for us and for our children. In Handmade Home, Amanda Blake Soule, author of The Creative Family and the blog SouleMama.com, offers simple sewing and craft projects for the home that reflect the needs, activities, and personalities of today’s families. As Amanda writes in the introduction, "As a crafter, I’m always looking for the next thing I want to make. As a mama, I’m always looking for the next thing we need—to do, to have, to use—as a family. The coming together of these parts is where the heart of Handmade Home lies." Filled with thirty-three projects made by reusing and repurposing materials, all of the items here offer a practical use in the home. From picnic blankets made out of repurposed bed sheets to curtains made out of vintage handkerchiefs, these projects express the sense of making something new out of something old as a way to live a more financially pared-down and simple life; lessen our impact on the earth; connect to the past and preserve a more traditional way of life; and place value on the work of the hands. Also included are projects that children can help with, allowing them to make their own special contribution to the family home. More than just a collection of projects for handmade items, this book offers the tools to create a life—and home—full of beauty, integrity, and joy. Projects include: • Papa’s Healing Cozy: This hot water bottle cover becomes a simple way to offer comfort to a sick child • Baby Sling: A simple pattern for an object that offers so much to a small child—refuge from the world and a place to lay their head next to a parent’s heart • Beach Blanket To-Go: Repurpose old sheets to create the perfect picnic blanket for special outdoor meals • Cozy Wall Pockets: A creative solution for storing a child’s small treasures Pattern templates for Handmade Home

Book Description
Families are one of society's oldest and most resilient institutions. From the beginning of human life, people have grouped themselves into families to find emotional, physical and collective support. Although in recent years social commentators have predicted the demise of both marriage and the family, they not only survive but continue to change and evolve. Family Treasures is a tool for all different types of individuals and families to better understand the qualities of strong families: appreciation and affection, commitment, positive communication, successful management of stress and crisis, spiritual well-being and enjoyable time together. Written in conversational style, Family Treasures empowers families to assess their own strengths and to develop a plan for building upon their successes. Within each chapter are family inventories and a variety of family-tested activities that can be used to enhance the quality of the family. "Family Treasures is one of those great resources that has strong research at its base and can be used by a variety of disciplines. The assessment tools and activities can be readily used by professionals and families to strengthen family relationships." Linda Skogrand, Ph.D. Assistant Professor Extension Specialist Utah State University

Book Description
Growing up, one of the joys of any child was to sit down with an elder and look through the family photo albums. Little stories would be told and a child would laugh at the "funny clothes". With the advent of the digital world, photo albums are becoming a thing of the past. A small child can't sit down and "browse" through photographs on a computer. It's just not the same. The photographs within this album were not even in an album, but had been scattered among various boxes of family papers, and some were in the hands of other family members. (And those family members are to be thanked for sharing their treasures.) Some of the photos were in bad shape. Some were not identified. Every effort has been made to restore the photos and correctly identify each person. However, errors may have occurred. Here, in this book, are the remains of our Barefoot-Daugherty family albums. Sit down and page through this "album" and share with your family. Again, a hearty "thank-you" to those who were so kind as to share their treasured memories.
