Stone Bridge

August 21, 2012 By

We spent two days in Regensburg, Germany.  If you ever get the chance to visit Germany, Regensburg is a town to see.   To think that you can walk across the Danube River on a cobblestone bridge during the 1100′s!

Regensburg was spared during the war so the buildings are old and very charming.  We saw marks on many of the old buildings showing the water line from flooding over the years.  Many water lines were over my head and yet these beautiful buildings still stand with such charm.

The view from the old stone bridge is incredible.

Look what was waiting for us on the other side…

Cobblestone streets and UPS!  Definitely a site to see.

Shopping!  The town is filled with quaint little shops and restaurants.  We had such fun!

I love a vacation!

“Bird Legs”

August 20, 2012 By

It was at the zoo in Augsburg, Germany that I discovered the true meaning of the words “bird legs”.

Stranger things have happened I’m sure, but for me this guy gets the prize.  Sunbathing has never been so good.

Enjoy your Monday!

Hugs,

Anne

Live to dance?

June 27, 2012 By

We had a treat this past weekend.  We watched our granddaughters dance in their yearly recital. They’ve done competitive dance for the past 7 or 8 years.  They practice for hours every week, with only 6 weeks off during the summer.  The commitment is big, but both of them are dedicated.

My oldest granddaughter Michaela, is a medical miracle, and every time I watch her dance I’m reminded of this (she’s on the left in the photo below).  She was premature (3 1/2 lbs at birth).  When she was 4 she had a chest  x-ray for a cough that wouldn’t go away.  The radiologist discovered, quite by accident, that she has 3 fused discs in her spine.  She was referred to a spinal specialist, put through testing and she’s met with him every year for follow-up.  We all honestly expected the worst and she may still have some tough times ahead, but the doctor can’t believe her flexibility and growth.  He’s told us that he’s never seen anything like it and he attributes it directly to dancing.

 

Our younger granddaughter Alyssa is also a dancer.  She’s filled with the grace and movements of a ballerina.

Alyssa’s in the right front in the photo below.

 I say thank you in my prayers for what dancing has given to each of them.

I’ll  finally be doing some sewing with my granddaughters next week and we’ll start working on some more projects for Sewing with Kids.  Summer’s finally here!

A girl named Mollie Makes it big!

June 19, 2012 By

Say hello to Mollie, from Mollie Makes Magazine!

She’s famous now that she has her own magazine,  Mollie Makes.  She made it to the top almost overnight because of readers like you who love to craft.  Mollie Makes magazine has a little something for everyone as you’ll see this weekend if you join Bunny Hill on Facebook or right here on this blog.

Who knew Mollie Makes magazine would be so “hot” in the magazine world?  Try and find that very first issue and you’ll see what “hot” really means.  It’s almost impossible to find one, even on eBay.  If you do find it, you’ll definitely have to hand over some $$.

Well guess what?  I’m giving away a copy of the very first issue of Mollie Makes on FACEBOOK this weekend!  One of you is going to win Issue #1 for your very own.  Here’s what you need to do to be entered to win…

  • Find something you want to make from one of the Mollie Makes issues. It can be anything you’ve wanted to make but never had the time.
  • Get together a group of friends for a party or lock yourself in your craft room and make the project you picked sometime over the weekend of June 22, 23 or 24.
  • Post a photo of it on our Bunny Hill Facebook page or email us (info@bunnyhilldesigns.com) a photo that we can post.

That’s it!  How easy and fun is that?  Just sew along with us this weekend and show us what you’ve made from Mollie Makes!  We’ll pick a winner on Monday morning.

If you already own the coveted first issue you can choose a second prize…a fat quarter bundle of Windsor Lane from Bunny Hill and Moda Fabrics.

 Here’s another surprise!  I’ve lowered the price of all the Mollie Makes magazines on our website to $10 per issue.   Each and every Mollie Makes we have for $10.00!  That includes the newest issue #15 that we just got in!

 If you happen to be on our Auto Ship list you’ll be getting this and future issues for $9.00 plus shipping!

 

Hurry and get out those Mollie Makes issues you’ve purchased.  It’s time to come up with something to make!

I’ll show you my project soon.

Hugs,

Anne
