These pictures were taken at Thanksgiving at Brian’s aunt and uncle’s house. That is his cousin Laura teaching the kids how to play a chord on the piano. It is always such a nice time to get together with all […]
****** Hopefully this card does not find people thoroughly confused. The Grinch that Stole Christmas*? Get it?? I hope so. The first picture is a wee bit darkish, but hopefully it gets the point across. The textures on the cover […]
Here I am again…not getting anything off my to-do list. Today Anya is going to a birthday party of another little girlfriend at school. She wanted me to make another dress and again picked out the main fabric for it. I […]
