well I have just caught up with an old friend in Texas .

Hello Jana it is so lovely to see you again.

I have a picture of my dolls that I have reborn.

ideas for christmas

here is a cute little peg reindeer the children can make,.

Ever have that left over puzzle where you can't find all the pieces. try this ornament.

recycle your jam lids. (tin ones) and make this magnet fridge ornament
I would leave out the lace and just glue some decorative braid around the outside.

how about a paddle pop stick star.. you can get really creative with these ones.

they are so easy the kids will enjoy making them as well.

my little girl .... she got 29 /30.
Have you seen her project .. she is so happy about..

Somewhere, over the rainbow, way up high
Theres a land that I heard ofOnce in a lullaby
Somewhere over the rainbow,
skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dreamReally do come true
Someday Ill wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
And way above the chimney tops
Is where youll find me,and
Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high
Theres a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
And way above the chimney tops
Thats where youll find me, and
Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come trueIf happy little blue birds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, or why, cant i?

this has always been my favourite song and I am on a search to find this song sung by a young american girl... I can't remember her name... so If anyone can help it would be great.

my two favourite little ladies.

Just love those eyes .. so blue
A smile two missing teeth.
I told J that when you loose your teeth, you are growing up and your not little child anymore.
Sis comment - Thanks she thinks she is the mother already.... They do grow up fast.
