Beautiful Ballerinas!



Mama Holli was a dancer 
many moons ago.


Now Mama Holli gets to watch 
her baby girls dance!
I was not even half the dancer 
my girls are today!
It is a joy beyond words to witness!
Dancing is an art!
It is such a beautiful
way to express ones self.
It is where music and spirit meet.
It is where a soul unites with a sound.
It is beautiful!

R Is For Rabbit

Snow is still on the ground
 but I am bringing out the
 Easter Bunnies!
R Is For Rabbit!
My favorite decorations 
are the ones my kids made
 with their tiny little hands
long long ago!
This one was made 12 years ago!
He is missing an ear 
which makes him 
all the more cuter!
Look at the red marker scribble
 where she tried to write an R 
with her chubby little fingers!

This guy looks like a cross
 between a rabid dog 
and
 an angry rabbit!
Still very cute!

Their tails are still intact!

Well kind of!

Here is a perky little rabbit!
It reads....I am some-bunny!
This little guy is about 
10 years old!

He has a back side too!
Lots of glitter!
Important!

Here is your more modern
and 
hip
bunny set!
She is checking 
him out for sure!

So hop on over to the craft box and let your babies get to work!
They will create keepsakes for a lifetime!
Makes A Mama Proud!
