Go figure that I would spend an hour or so uploading pictures and trying to format them just right, and then when I post them it messes it all up!
ReplyDeleteI must admit that I kind of like how it turned out, regardless; I am grateful because other wise I would probably cry or be so frustrated, instead of just slightly disappointed (it probably helped that I took along break in between formatting and then posting and see what happened). Blessing =D
I love the dandelion idea. They turned out cute. I can't wait to see your future posts.
ReplyDeleteI think that one was Skye's idea, and Elizabeth had so much fun blowing them! I am just glad that the hill where we were was kept weeded, even though the hill lower down where it was technically a different property wasn't and was covered in dandelions.
ReplyDeleteThanks Meghann
I am so glad that you like the pictures.
ReplyDeleteLooking great! I miss you guys!
ReplyDeleteThanks David! It sure would be nice if we could all hang out again. How is your own little family doing, what with the new addition and all?
