EVERY PICTURE HAS A STORY



Here is the story behind the photos

Many of the photos have been
 'made into'
greeting cards

another head popped out
much to my delight!

  2. Wow what a wonderful assortment of photos !! They're all worthy of being greeting cards. I love the ones with Gwennie especially the one where you and she are face to face !! I've seen her do that bottle thing here and oh how we've laughed at her antics ! Dianne you are very creatively gifted. The baby photo of Marie is precious. Thank you.
