I cannot believe it, but my "baby" turns 8 this month....This is a make a wish kit (birthday theme, in soft pastels). Each birthday I try to make a list of the current "Favorites"...check out the pretty mask, which comes in a set of 4 called Joycepaul-prettymasks1 at the www.shabbypickledesigns.com Now that the kids are back in school, I feel like I can catch up on the computer things that I ignored all summer long!

New teeth and good grades

It's been an exciting week! The two new front teeth are coming in, Miss K got a new haircut for the summertime, and MaMa Kay took K and M to the Chuckie Cheese for an afternoon of fun (good grades).

The first signs of spring: My NEW rose bush is blooming! I've got a rock garden, that is slowly filling in after a few years of working on it. I'm trying to take a few photos every week of things as they fill out. Atlanta is absolutely picture perfect this time of year: 70s and no bugs!

Classic dandelion blowing photos! What would YOU wish for?!
I'm guessing she wished for another Webkinz!!!!

The Piano Recital

Miss K had her first piano recital, and she was sooo cute. They had the most BEAUTIFUL baby grand piano, and her teacher was so proud (not to mention Mom and Dad). She's playing with two hands now! The "pretend" photo of her playing the pretend keys was her in the driveway practicing as we hopped in the car to leave.

Today our family honors and celebrates the life of our "Grammy." Muriel Graap passed away after 97 good years, and we loved her dearly.

Easter 2009....nice, simple, and easy.
