Granddaughters

Hi, I had the best day with my granddaughters! My daughter’s maternity leave over, returning to work- I had the great pleasure of spending the day with the girls. Trying not to use the word babysit- I like to think of this as dates with my girls.

It’s amazing how fast time goes the older I become. Brynlee is 6 weeks old. It was just yesterday she was born…….

Take Care.

Best Wishes,

Maple Leaf Festival

Maple Leaf Festival Baldwin KS

Hi, October is one of my favorite time of the year. The third weekend in October is always marked on my calendar. It’s a tradition of mine to go every year with a family member. Some years it has been all of them and this year my son, son-in-law and grand daughter was with me.

The atmosphere is just awesome; people, crafts, food, the smell, colorful leaves and plain ol’ fun.

The best part of the whole day was my souvenir. Yes, each year I like to buy one item to remind me of the day. This year was the best to date.

The Forever Hands booth. Once I spotted the Forever Hands booth I knew I found just the souvenir for this year. This was one of the very first booths we stopped at. Typically we walk throughout all of them and then I go back to the one I liked the best. There was no question or doubt, this was it.

A sculpture of my grand daughter’s hand- to last a lifetime. What a memory! Clickable gallery below.

The last image in the gallery; I was worried Brie’s plaster hand was going to have a huge thumb! She was wiggling her fingers in the mold. Once the mold was set and Brie’s hand was removed; we were told to come back in a couple of hours while the plaster set. Upon our return; I was quite pleased……

Forever Hands

This lovely sculpture is at home next to my computer. I look at it often while working and remember our Maple Leaf day together.

Have you ever preserved your children/grand children’s hand-foot print? Please do share!

Birthday Parties!

pg-birthday-party-themes-colors-full
Party planned, guests invited, cake baked and the decorations hung, now it’s time to party! No more party photos without mom and dad in the picture. Get out from behind the camera. Let Debra worry about saving your special birthday memories. Enjoy your time with family and guests. Debra will do her best to capture each and every guest. Including the cake, the decor and all of the food!

Yes, I LOVE birthday parties! There’s no catch. All I ask is no expense on my part for the party- like a roller skating party or movie theme you would cover my admission fee. And of course, I would get a piece of the birthday cake and ice cream!
