do you know what today is.....

there's only one person missing here
and
she's busy turning 22
so
this is what we decided to do to make her laugh
and
show her how much we love her
because
we're a wild and crazy bunch
~not really but it sounds good and we can put on a fun show when we need to~
~
anyhow
~
obviously
someone else came up with the
human calendar idea
and
many of us have one somewhere on our blogs
{mine is on the very bottom}
so
in needing something different this year to celebrate
I thought I'd give it a try
~
I think the dog is a nice touch
don't you
*
happy happy birthday to you sweet child
who we adore more than you'll ever know
I hope
this year is overflowing with everything wonderful
*
and
for any of you wanting to try this
it works across the miles
~
since john is in colorado
he had to send his photo to me and then I did the rest here at home
but
you could do it with lots of family members and get really silly for pretty much any occasion

  5. Lovely idea, Beth. She'll be thrilled, I bet. Last year I sent a birthday email to my sister-in-law that was just a photo of me holding up a Happy Birthday sign. The only limit to creativity is your imagination, right?
