Every Mother's Day, we go to MayFest at Gratz Park here in Lexington. It is the sweetest little park with a fountain that depicts children playing in the water. We love the atmosphere and we especially love checking out the artisans that come to show their wares. The kids have the best time riding the ponies, getting their faces painted, petting the "exotic" animals in the petting zoo and, this year, bouncing in the moon walk. Weeeee! I just loooovvvee these pictures of the babes in the moonwalk, aren't they too fun? After we go to MayFest, we typically go to Midway and walk this little quaint strip of shops, galleries and cafes. This year, Aidan was desperate for a nap, so we postponed our Midway jaunt for mid afternoon. The drive through horse country was bee-utiful. And, I found the sweetest painting for Aidan's room at a gallery in Midway. The print shows "Jack" climbing a beanstalk wrapped around a giant tree upon which sits a castle. All in all, a wonderful day with the family - I am one lucky lady!

You are a great Mommy! So pleased to see YOU with your generous heart giving all that you can to your kids.
Good job my baby girl!
Love those grands of mine...fun pictures with big smiles = bounce, bounce, bounce.
Hi,
I saw your note on Cathy Z's page and followed the link. You do fantastic pages! You mentioned in your blog that you wondered what was keeping people from using your services. Don't know, but one guess is that the people you have reached MAY not think it a priority to pay for services such as yours. If you can break into a market which could and would pay, I think you could do VERY well. Keep at it! This probably is a ridiculous idea, but I don't know you, so I feel brave ...(little grin)...ANYway...maybe you could get a few photos of a celebrity and her children from a pop magazine, scrap them, send them to her for free, to advertise. If you could get in the door, you'd have her friends hooked too. yeah, it's a crazy idea.
Thanks for the suggestion, Nancy! I LOVE your idea and must now decide which celebrity to stalk - JK! Thanks for your nice compliment and for dropping by, take care and let me know if you have any other amazing ideas!
