Let
me introduce myself. My name is Barbara.
I'm the owner of OakLeaf Acre. My wonderful
husband says I am the matriarch and inspiration
for the Acre. I have devoted full-time to
creating a unique source for scrappers to
share and find all things scrapping. In my
spare time, I enjoy spending time with my
family, scrapping, and in December 2002 I
became a grandmother for the first time. I
have always said, " I
was born to be a grandmother".
I
have had a very close and talented group
of people involved in creating OakLeaf Acre...
my wonderful family.
Larry,
my husband of thirty years, is a very gifted
Carpentry Contractor and is responsible for
the construction of the warehouse and office
here on the acre. His willingness to do anything
necessary when called upon has been a great
help in getting up and running on time.
Amy,
our oldest child, is the other scrapper in
the family. She is a scrapbook consultant.
As an engineer working in the aerospace industry she
has had the opportunity to travel around
the USA and other parts of the world. The
pictures she takes on her travels, along
with those of special occasions, have been
turned into many scrapbooks. She will be
sharing her experiences on a regular basis
with Scrap
Classes on the OakLeaf Acre site. She is
married to her college sweetheart Rick and is
the mother of Eli Richard and Grace Lillian
our grandchildren.
Rob,
our oldest son, is the chief designer and
webmaster for the Acre. Rob has been using
computers for his design work for over ten
years and has created dozens of web sites
for local as well as national businesses
through his company, Quinton
Chandler Advertising.
Jeff,
our youngest son, is our network Administrator.
He is responsible for keeping the computers
running smoothly and our website live. He
has been working as a network administrator
for several years. During the construction
of our warehouse, he helped hang drywall
and painted and painted some more.
I
must acknowledge the greatest inspiration
and guidance, my relationship with Christ.
He has made all this possible and continues
to give us the strength we need and the direction
for OakLeaf Acre.
