Bathing Beauty


Journaling: Two-year-old Tiffani decided one day to pass the time at Meme's house by searching her dresser drawers. Imagine her surprise when she found several of Meme's bathing suits fit her just perfectly!

I'm sure my niece will near die of embarrassment when she discovers these pictures are on the web!! hehe But I can't help it!! These are some of my all-time favorite pictures of her just being a kid! She looked SO adorable and was having so much fun modeling her fashionable creation!

A few poems

Years ago, when I was in high school and early college..I spent a lot of time writing poetry. So I decided to take some time and put these down on digital scrap pages. So here they are:


No one makes me feel
Quite the way I do
When I'm with no one else,
No one else, but you.

I pray this feeling lasts
Longer than they often say.
For I want to be with you,
And I want you to also want to stay.

You mean the world to me.
There's nothing I wouldn't do,
Nothing I wouldn't say,
To be wit no one else,

That is, no one else,
but you.

Few things can symbolize
The feelings that I have.
I can't really describe
Why these feelings are.

A dozen roses never say
As much as that one,
Single, solitary rose.
The feelings shared are special,
Feelings that come few times.

These are the feelings that I have for you.
Those of that one,
Single, solitary rose.
That will be the symbol of my undying love
For you, for always and forever!!

Jump!

Journaling: On a Summer day in Broken Arrow, the family all headed to the neighborhood pool. Hannah spent a lot of time splashing in the kiddie pool, while Kyle and Josh played in the big pool. I thought it was great to show each of them jumping in!!

Hair Color Obsession?

Journaling: Over the years I've had a love/hate relationship with my own hair color. I've been REALLY blonde, brunette, auburn, magenta. So many colors and so interesting to see how the change in hair color can bring out new and interesting personality traits.

I couldn't tell you where I got the paper and elements that I used in this page, because I'm not that good at organizing my scrappy stuff. But I can tell you they had the name "Claire-Stephens-SD" in them. So feel free to Google it and maybe you'll get lucky. The other day I was just thinking of all the many hair color choices I've made over the years. So I decided to put them together for all my friends to be able to see in one place. hehe

FYI, the picture from 1993 is PRE-any hair coloring!! So that's the real me! The 1999 picture is natural as well.
