Rosie's Magic Dancing Shoes



It's official. Rosie, our two year old, announced she can only dance, if she is wearing these shoes. Not only does she dance, she gallops. Music is optional. This brings down the house.

One of our very favorites, Alicia, of Posie Gets Cozy, announced she is in the home stretch of adopting a baby girl. We wish her every blessing in the world. What a lucky little girl!

This cake speaks volumes. Who can resist? Love...

Banish Grey Days

I don't know about you, but the weather in Illinois leaves a bit to be desired. Maybe if I had this ensemble, I would be a little more tempted to venture forth. Who knows?
