Is It Snowing Yet?

Though it was Thanksgiving Day when I took this pic of Ashton, we are eagerly awaiting the snow. This year I'm thinking he will be big enough to really enjoy it as much as Big Mamaw does. Oh what fun I am anticipating with him! That is if Miss Carol and Miss Linda don't hog up all the snow. LOL.

Background paper is from Christmas Blog 2008 designed by Wilma. The frame, snowman and poinsetta flowers are by our very own Miss Gerri.

A Special Lady

I stayed up extra late tonight just so I could get this on for you by morning (cause I know you will be up and about long before I am, lol). Anyway, wanted to wish this very special lady an extraordinarily happy birthday. She's a talented designer, our blog fairy, answers all our questions and most of all she's a very dear friend. I wish you a blessed day, Miss C and may all you birthday wishes come true. Love you big bunches !!

Kit is "Genesis" from Scrapper's Emporium.

A Good Girl

Miss Leiah is trying to convince Santa that she has been a very good girl. Come on, Santa...she's only 3 months old...how naughty could she be? LOL.

The background is one from 2mrssummersdesigns. The word art is mine..not real sure that I'm happy with it though.

Ashton

This is a picture of our Ashton that I took last week. He is actually standing in our kitchen waiting for Papaw to sprinkle water in his face. He loves it when Gary wets his hand and lets the water drip on his face. (you can tell by the look on his face that he enjoys it...so it's not like 'water-boarding'. lol). Just one of the little games that he and Papaw made up. They have such fun together on our Saturday morning visits.
It took me forever to extract him from all the background surroundings and I thought Miss Carols painted paper with the rainbow was the perfect place to put him. Thanks for lookin' in on our little "pot of gold".

Background is "Hand painted and drawn paper", by Angelscrapper.

In Training

A true Southern Belle must begin learning at a very early age how to dress, pose and smile...if she feels like it...which in this case she doesn't... feel like smiling, that is. But that's OK..she's got the dressing and pose part down pat. lol. This is little Miss Leiah Elizabeth Grace's first professional photo session. There are more photos to come but wanted to get this one done in her 'Lil Dolly' dress. Thanks for lookin' in on our "little Southern Belle".


The kit is "Hand painted & drawn" by our very own Angelscrapper. I thought it was perfect for these pic. Thank you so much, Miss Carol.

Granddaughters

Three of the six surviving grandchildren of George and Celia Hazelwood (all of which are granddaughters, but, there were only three grandsons in the group of 14 of us.) The picture is Ann, Mildred and me (I'm the fat one in the pink sweater,lol).


Kit is "Day 9 of 30" by cuddlebeezedesigns.

Page for Family Reunion

This is another page for our Hazelwood Family Reunion. It's titled "Music; It's in our blood" because we had and still have some really good musicians in our family. I grew up listening to them. My cousins, George, Ann and Johnny were on the local radio station every week and also every Saturday they played on stage at the local theater and they performed on the local TV station where Ann was a regular preformer. It is to them that I owe my love of music and oh how I wish I had inherited some of their talent, but alas, it was not to be. Of the three, Ann is the only one still living. She is in the picture above.

I'll have to research the kit used for this, (sorry).

One more grandchild.

Kevin and Dawn (our youngest son and his wife) are the parents of Cory, age 14; and Jacob, age 12. In March, they will present us with another grandson! At this stage, I thought all future babies in our family would be great-grandchildren...not so! One more grandchild and we lovingly await his entrance into our arms, he's already in our hearts.
