bowling and twirling

Kyria loves to play with her bowling set from grandma. The long length of the floor is not always "put away" enough to enjoy it, though. The other evening, it was. And she and Anya took turns ...



then she twirled with Mikalah...



ENJOY!

still here

SOOO... I'm still here... we're still kicking ;)
I put a couple links to some crafty blogs on my sidebar - and I can't move them anywhere else???? does anyone else have problems with their layout being "stuck" ? I was trying to move some stuff around the other day and it was locked up to - but I just figured it was a fluke thing... guess not. Anyway... i will add more as I re-find places I've been recently... but for now - I have been inspired! and wanted to pass it along to anyone else who may also be inspired by them...
