Aussie ant has finished challenge #3!

OK, this was a tough one for me. Since I have started digi scrapbooking I made a lot of layouts about myself and I start to dislike them *lol* But to have to journal that much on top of that... I tell ya, I had a hard time! But it is done and I think, I like it. What do you think?

Journaling reads:
Once upon a time:
in a small town in Holland a little baby girl was born - here name was Nathalie. During the summer holidays she and her family spent some weeks at her grandparents house in Germany, as well as Christmas, which she always enjoyed. It felt special and cosy at granny’s house. And it was special, because they didn’t see them very much. Her dutch granny she saw more often, sometimes she stayed there over the weekend.

When she was twelve years of age, she, her little sister and her parents moved to Germany against her will. Her happy life seemed over with that move - her parents got divorced, her daddy died young and life got quite difficult.Very often she felt lost in the world, desperately looking for a home, loving and caring people.

But everything changed when she met her prince charming, Gerd. He made her smile again and she felt beautiful. The dark clouds in the sky dissapeared and the sun was shining bright again. They got married, had the most beautiful wedding and soon their gorgeous baby daughter arrived.

One day they took on a big challenge which changed their lives tremendously, they moved to Australia. Friends and family thought they were very brave to take on this task.Of course it wasn’t easy, far away from everything and everybody they knew, but they met friendly people and they soon felt at home. Nathalie gave birth to their second child, a son this time. They found a nice house which they bought and renovated to their taste. Nathalie’s children love the house and told her that they don’t want to move again, so they probably still live there today... The End.
