Night at the drive in

So many times when we were kids our folks would take us to the drive in.  It was so much fun!!!  While sitting in line to go in we would look at all the other screens seeing what other shows were playing.  Then after finding the perfect spot (and one that had a working speaker) we would drag out the blankets and pile under them.  In the summer we would pile them high and sit on top of them.  Either way there was always blankets involved with going to the drive in show.  Those were good times and even got crazier as we got older.  Probably a good thing there aren't any more drive ins knowing how our society has changed.  Anyway I hope you get to enjoy making some great memories today!

Fancy Dress

Like most little girls, I used to dream about wearing big full dresses like Scarlet O'hara (really because I wanted to dress up for Rhett Butler) (oops did I just date myself????) which I guess is the reason Little Miss Thisorthat always wants to play dress up and a spinning dress is a must!  It was not a far stretch when I finished this piece that I saw that magnificant dress that I always wanted to wear.  I think I was born in the wrong century!!  Enjoy thinking about little memories that used to put a smile on your face - I hope they still do!!

Childs Play

Every time I see a pinwheel it always reminds me of those pinwheels we used to get as kids that sometimes had little candies in the straw-like handle.  After we ate the candy we would try to put them in the ground and wait for the wind to blow them around - that is of course if we didn't have them blown out of our hands when we would hold them out the window while the car was going down the road.  It's funny how little memories from your childhood pop into your head sometimes.  I hope today you will try to recall a good memory from your childhood and just think on it for a few minutes.  It really does give you a good feeling!
