A sweet weekend visitor.....

Can you EVEN believe this angelic face???
Clara arrived Friday afternoon and is staying with Mimi and Papa for the weekend!!

I had to share photos with you ~

Here she is during her nap Friday afternoon......




Playing so very hard!!










It's incredibly hard to catch a photo of her now!!
Most of the ones I take she's a blur in the picture :)



I found the most wonderful sketch book
the other day that I have to share with you...
It's quite large as you can see from the pad underneath ~
I found it at w-mart!
Just look around their teeny tiny craft isle near the canvases.
I think it would make a gorgeous book to alter for a journal!!!
It's about 12.00 and has the most gorgeous kraft pages as well
as the cover.....





I also want to share this beautiful album that was gifted to me ~
As soon as my desktop gets finished getting an overhaul, I have GOT
to scan some of these pages for you!!!
Here's just a glimpse at a few pages:








I hope you are staying cozy and warm dear friends!!!
Have a wonderful weekend,
hugs and love,
Dawn

What a precious face ~
Oh myyyyy goodness I would
be kissing and hugging that
little doll like crazy ~
I am kind of worried I am
going to be one of those grandma's
that my grandkids will dread because
I will be squeezing them ~

Such a sweetie pie. I know just what you mean about taking photos of grands (unless they are sleeping). I have to use the sports setting on my camera much of the time.

And you are so right about the w*mart...such a tiny little craft section and the sewing section is ridiculous and they don't have any embroidery thread. Maddening. Glad you found something good.

Stay warm and cozy, too.

Dawn,
As my daddy used to say...you could lose a crop just looking at her! They do have a way of making us stop and just stare in awe...don't they? Those eyes...mesmerizing.

Clara is so cute, Dawn! What a big girl she is getting to be! My 6 month old granddaughter thinks she's a big girl ~ she loves to stand up, as if she thinks she might walk around. Have a wonderful weekend with her!

Theresa said...

Awww, Clara is such a doll! She looks so serious, too cute. I know what you mean, my grands are camera blurs too, they are always in motion. I know your weekend is going to be packed full of fun!

Dawn, I have a good friend who has a granddaugther who looks SO MUCH like your sweet little Clara..she could be her twin.
She is a bit older than Clara..but they sure look alike..... at this same age.
Don't we just LOVE having our grandkids around ?

I love those old autograph albums- the sayings are so wonderful to read!
