several things

Several things to touch on in this post....

first ~ My niece Aubrie turned two this past Friday, March 12th,  and her party was Sunday afternoon....

Happy Birthday Miss Aubrie!!!!!

............................................................................................................................................

second ~ Todd's Uncle Glenn sent me an email yesterday. He had two pictures attached, one of Sarah that he got from my blog and another of Sarah's great grandmother (his mother), also named Sarah. In fact, my Sarah is named after her great grandmother, who we knew as Mimi. Uncle Glenn wanted to know if I ever saw the picture of his mom when she was in 4th or 5th grade. He told me to compare my Sarah now at that age to her great grandmother at the same age. What do you think? See a resemblance?

third ~ My nephews were so enthralled the other day when I was drawing paisley doodles. So, here you go guys... This is what my doodles ended up as. I designed a set of note sheets and a matchbook notebook, which I now have available in my store....

You can see them here. :-)

And finally, fourth ~ Thank you to everyone for the overwhelming response to the spring baby grass wreath in the previous post. Who knew a few simple supplies could touch so many people's creative lives! LOL Thank you for all the comments and emails. :-)

Well, you certainly covered a lot in this post! First, happy birthday Miss Aubrie. I love, love the pictures of our family's Sarahs. I still miss Mimi. Sarah has a wonderful namesake. I love looking through old family pictures and see just how that genetic ribbon of traits interlace through all the generations. Thanks for sharing.
