HERE IT IS, End of August 09.... and you stayed tuned, didn't you???

Ok, hope you like my song selection - it's called "the Hamster Dance"- I used to play this for ice hockey tournaments - you'll be tapping your feet!

Also, my last pic with Alex by the tree - notice that i am wearing a new "artist series" locket by my friend, Cat, of polarity.etsy.com and the artist is Cyd, of botanicalbird.etsy.com, a cool painting of 2 flowers, and i have 3 other pics i can interchange!!!!

I had Cat do magnetic metal/cork boards for the kid's college rooms, with a bunch of magnets that are pics of their friends...... and of course, me!! (Ha ha) I don't want them to forget for one minute what i look like :D This is a great gift idea!! Enjoy! laura xxoo

  3. What fun!! great video Laura, you are marvelous and in fine form as always girlfriend! I still can't get overhow much Drew and Alex look like you, you're all so darn cute! I'm so glad to know that you've been busy with your metalsmithing lately, that's really awesome, keep on rocking baby cakes.

    love you,
    Cyd

  4. Ok, I have to admit I watched the slideshow BEFORE I read what you wrote (shame on me) but since I did, I can report that my toe tapping came from a very pure and uninfluenced place and my first thought was "What is this music??? She's a genius...I HAVE to have it!!" You're such a bunny too, you cited you sources right down to Cyd and Cat.

    And regarding life cycles, I hope I can navigate through empty-nestedness when it visits my doorstep with as much grace as you have.

    Cute post!
