Lucy turned three today. It was a great party full of laughter and cute kids! Dave made her a chalkboard out of an old window, Lucy approved:) Seeing the joy on the faces of six little girls definitely put a smile on my face. Enjoy!
Dave and I love making Christmas gifts for our family. I have many fond memories of fashion shows my cousin and I would put on when we visited our grandparents. There was a big box full of dresses, and a dresser drawer full of jewelry and shoes for us to parade around in:) So, this year we made dress up boxes for each pair of nieces. I had more fun getting costumes, feather boas, clip on earings, tiaras… I think I might have had more fun putting it all together than the girls will have dressing up! The boxes were a hit, and the girls wasted no time trying out the goods.
Enjoy!
With all of the holiday bustle I just realized I forgot to include the slideshow for Hamish & Gracie the bulldog’s portrait shoot. It’s too cute not to share. Enjoy!
Merry Christmas! The holiday rush is over and I’ve got some fun blog entries to capture what a great holiday it was for the Miles Family. Dave and I decided not to get a Christmas tree this year… it’s a long story but, after getting all amped up about that pine tree scent, going out to a special ‘Christmas tree’ breakfast at IHOP, and then driving for over 30 minutes on slick roads in a blizzard to our tree farm of choice only to find that it wasn’t open, well… we opted for plan ‘B’ … I filled up a basket I have on loan with our Christmas ornaments, put it on our coffee table and put our tree skirt & gifts under the coffee table. It was fun and quirky just like us 
. Each month I’m going to do a favorite things blog, so here is the first one. Enjoy!
