Special Scrapbook for Mom!

 
This past week, I put together a specially made scrapbook just for my mom. One thing that my mom and I have always shared throughout the years was our love for the beautiful sport of figure skating. And so, using various photos and cutting up some of my old (and newer) figure skating magazines, I came up with this book ...

The late Christopher Bowman ...


Bowman, who earned the nickname, "Bowman the Showman"  was once a child actor on the show, "Little House on the Prairie" until the age of five when he began figure skating and was so "naturally" talented that he became a United States Men's National Champion, United States Men's World Silver & Bronze Medalist, and a two-time American Olympic medal contender!

Olympic Gold Medalist, Kristi Yamaguchi ...
 
 
The French brother and sister Ice Dance pair of Paul & Isabelle Duchesnay; Canadian three-time World Champion Kurt Browning ...


American Olympic Pairs Gold Medalists Meryl Davis & Charlie White; The two-time Olympic Russian Pairs husband and wife Champions Ekaterina Gordeeva & Sergei Grinkov ...
 
Olympic Gold Medalist Evan Lysacek; Michael Weiss; and Olympic Gold Medalist and awesome commentator, Scott Hamilton
 
Kimmie Meissner; Michelle Kwan



I just need to put a few more finishing touches on it, but I think she will like it, what do you think?  ;)
