Black History Fact For Today

February is Black History month; Yesterday I was watching Noggin with my boys and I learned something new! Jack Johnson who was the world's first African American heavy weight champion (I knew that part) invented the wrench. Well I googled it and he actually patented improvements to the wrench and invented a theft prevention device for vehicles...who knew?!

Just thought I'd share- I love learning new things!

I live in New Jersey with my husband and our 2 sons. I work full time as a Medical Technologist and volunteer for the Community Emergency Response Team in my town. I've been scrapping for the past 8 years and I truly love it because it allows me to combine my love of photography and my love of paper into one art form. I love teaching scrapbook classes and providing freelance work. Please contact me via email if you are interested in commissioning my services: tanisharenee74@hotmail.com
