Birthday Tag

Hello there!  I'm having a ton of birthdays this summer, and gift tags always add such a little something special.  I decided to make a gift tag with "Pretty Mermaid" from Pretty Little Stamps store.  Isn't she such a darling little digi?  I truly enjoyed colouring her with my prismas!!!

Thank you so much for stopping by and visiting me!  I'll see you again soon!

Aloha

Hello there!  Hope you're all having a wonderful weekend!  I wanted to thank all of you for your support in my last post .. hahah .. I don't feel so alone and I feel better knowing that loads of Mom's feel the same way I do.  :)  Thank you!

Well, I got to play with a Tilda that I knew I had to have.  Before moving to Vegas after college, I was born and raised in Hawaii (which most of my family are still there) .. and funny how colouring and making a card with this Tilda brought back so many fond memories.

I grew up in the little town of Hilo and every year the Merrie Monarch Festival takes place there.  It is a Hula Competition from hula troops around the world.  It's a huge event that lasts for about a week and it's FABULOUS!!!  I remember as a little girl watching it every single year and getting so excited when I'd see my friends dancing on stage.  Beautiful!!

The costumes, the singing, the stories behind the music .. it still lives in my heart and always will.

I'd like to enter this into:

Here's a couple video's that I hope you'll be able to view.  Guys are awesome at Hula too!  :)  This first video is just one of the many troops at the Merrie Monarch.

*Note:  you have to hold your mouse somewhere on the video screen to play smoothly*

And this second one is a girl at Miss Kauai pageant.  Your jaws will drop when you see her shake her hips about a minute into her dance.  Same thing:  hold your mouse somewhere on the video to make sure the video plays smoothly

Yup .. this one Tilda generated so many memories!  LOL!

Thank you so much again for visiting me .. I so appreciate it!  I'll see ya again soon!
