That is a quote that is on a plaque in my mother-in-law's garden... except it says angels instead of fairies. One warm Sunday afternoon, Abby picked these vines off our grapevine and made these adorable wreaths for Afton and her to wear. They pretended they were fairies and danced around the backyard. I couldn't help but think of that quote as I watched them. They were so sweet dancing and giggling together... and they looked so beautiful in their hand-made wreaths... it was one of those moments I was very grateful to be a mother of daughters.
They are so cute! If I could I would take them down to the shakespeare festival where all the other fairies are. That's what they reminded me of in the pictures. Cute kiddies!

Good question. I love my family, photography, and scrapbooking. This seems like a quick and easy way to share my love of all three with all of you...and you can even post your own comments. It also seems like "instant gratification" scrapbooking to me. I can post things as they happen instead of waiting a couple years for something to actually make it into the scrapbooks. Don't worry...I'm not giving up scrapbooking (gasp!), just adding to it. Besides, how many of you are really going to come flip through all my scrapbooks (although, you are more than welcome to do so)? So, come back often...I plan to update it at least once a week and we lead very exciting lives! Be sure to go through the archives so you can see what we've been doing since January. Oh, yeah! Let me know if you have a blog so I can check it out and add you to our list!
