More Halloween Fun
Just a few more shots of Julianna at Halloween. Most of these were taken during our "dress rehearsal". I had to put her in her costume a couple days before Halloween to make sure she was comfortable and ready to go come Fright Night. We had so much fun.

Julianna is in love with our black kitty cat, Princess. This year for Halloween she dressed up as a kitty cat as a tribute to Princess who is nearly 17 years old and beginning to show it 🙁 She had a blast -- here are just a few pics and more to come in other posts!

Pumpkins and Gourds
With Autumn arriving last month the weather is just about perfect and we have stripped our yard of summer annuals and replaced them with fall and winter pansies and violas. We also added a big pumpkin and gourd collection for Julianna and updated her flag for Halloween. She was super excited to see her decked out playset and we got some terrific shots of her enjoying the changing weather.
Enjoy!

Happy Easter

Easter Bunny comes for a visit
After a soggy and cold week Easter Sunday turned out to be beautiful. A little bit cool but perfect for egg hunts. Julianna was super excited to see the Easter Bunny had stopped by while she was sleeping. She was totally amazed by the basket that was waiting for her when she woke...Enjoy!
Happy Valentine’s Day
To Our Valentines
If apples were pears
And peaches were plums
And the rose had a different name.
If tigers were bears
And fingers were thumbs
I'd love you just the same.
Valentine so bright and gay,
I am sending out today.
With the message, "I love you,"
Hoping that you love me, too.
Enjoy some of our very best Valentine's Day moments!
