Sports, Art, Dance, Music and more!

Most of these things involve kids....

Great time to announce something for kids.....

Bella and Bailey have started a blog....

They are looking for some creative kids to join them.....

This is for kids 12 and under only....

We are putting together a group of kids who like to craft.....

Not for parents, just KIDS! Well and a Canine too (Bailey)

Bella and her Best friend Bailey ( or mommy's best friend Bailey) are looking for about 10 kids who would like to show what they make once a month...

it will always be the 3rd weekend of the month....

To apply just send your child's favorite craft that they have made....
