to say hello. I can't believe it's Thursday! These days are just melting away. Our holiday celebrations were wonderful...full of lots of family time, parties, and yummy sugary food. I had a whole collage of photos to share-- our Baby Animal Day adventure, Easter bunny visits, and weekend activities...but darn Photoshop had a little glitch and froze up before I saved. Drat! I'll have to scrap a page instead to document all the good stuff. I DID manage to whip up a few quickie shots of our dancing diva.
She LOVED her new Easter duds. Ok....she loved PART of my late night handiwork. I made a matching capelet out of the prettiest shade of plum velveteen, which she refused to wear. Not even in the car on the way to church! *sigh* I think it's darling. Unfortunately, she does not. Hmmmm...I think a hefty case of bribery is in order. At least for a few pictures. You think?
Liv was delighted when *Henry* obliged in a little post church soiree on the freshly aerated lawn. (Yes, those little brown clumps are dirt, not doo-doo. LOL) After their *graceful* tango she exclaimed "Dada, that was SO romantic!" To which he quickly replied with a zerbert on her neck making her squeal. LOL She has that man wrapped so tightly around her little finger...
All the while, Mr. Gray was being his usual cute self. Just moseying around, doing his own thing. Such a little man, looking so dapper in his chambray and linen. Complete with his signature baby mo-hawk and suede shoes. What a stylin' little dude. ;)
I hope you're all having a great week! SO extremely busy here, but all is good. I'll post some of my recent OJ&Co projects soon. Here's a hint...they have something to do with the FABULOUS, and ever so sweet Amy, of Inspire Company fame. Oh, I am one lucky, lucky girl, I have to say!
oh just the sweetest, cutest photos. Those photos of your daughter + husband dancing are just adorable. Those will be treaured!
And Mr. Gray? How cute is he? What a stylish boy! gosh, I just want to kiss his little cheeks!
I'd wear your caplet!

Can we at least get a snapshot of the caplet on the hanger since Liv wasn't down with wearing it?
See Kim, it's just never enough! :D

Hey chickie, GORGEOUS and incredibly sweet photos. Love the sequence of little Liv with *Henry*. :) Oh and that mohawk is too darn cute!! Can't wait to see what you've got coming out for the shoppe. We've gotta touch base again on the diaper bag thing. I never talked to you about what fabrics/colors you were thinking.
And about Utah, it's crazy how many people visit my blog from there. And they can't all be you, there are all sorts of cities all over Utah. A friend of mine will be there this weekend near Salt Lake City and I so wish I could tag along and come see you. Maybe next time. :)

Kim, You've got the most beautiful family! That Gray is getting big!
Love the photo frames & how you decked them out. Such a great sense of style you have!!

Lovin' that floral fabric on Miss Liv's skirt! It must be something in the flowers that makes one want to twirl while wearing it, 'cuz I spin around in my apron, too!!
Darling photos, darling family...so sweet!
Posted by: DivaDeb | April 12, 2007 at 01:31 PM
I love reading your blog!! That skirt is SO pretty - I really need to drag out my sewing machine and use it {thanks for the inspiration!} And I love your pics - I had to "photo-lift" them!!
Posted by: Sara | April 12, 2007 at 03:44 PM
Oh my goodness, Liv and *Henry* are darling dancing together. That is SO sweet. Liv's skirt is beautiful. You have such a gift. Me? I just went to Gymboree. :)
Posted by: Maegan | April 12, 2007 at 04:57 PM
I sooooooo wish I could sew! My husband does, though, so you'd think he could just make me an apron himself! Hope he gets me one of yours for mom's day! Wanna' see photos of the capelet!
Posted by: Lori S. | April 12, 2007 at 05:49 PM
You have such a beautiful family! I love looking at what you make. Inspires me to wish to be cool like that. :)
Posted by: Britt | April 12, 2007 at 05:58 PM
Can't wait to see the new creations... you always amaze me!
Your kidlets look too darling, so sweet in their adorable Easter duds. Happy Spring!

I posted on my blog last week about having a backpack that I was wanting to give to someone who had a "Gray" in their family. Would like to have it? I had it monogrammed for my nephew and then never gave it to him. It's brand new, never been used, is blue with a monkey on it. It's on my blog if you want to see a pic of it. I hate for someone not to use it b/c it's so cute. Email if your interested and I'll mail it to you. Thanks! Christy
Posted by: Christy | April 13, 2007 at 03:23 PM
aw.... your kids are just toooo adorable! :)
Posted by: kari | April 13, 2007 at 08:31 PM
