Today is Leonardo da Vinci's birthday, and it's also the anniversary of the opening of the very first McDonalds, so I thought I'd share some photos from the original celebration back in 2013.... This was the celebration I made the three little Medieval BID dresses for....
I was photographing Barin's introduction to Grace, and noticed my three little BIDs standing around still in their Medieval dresses, so thought I'd try include them in the scene... The BIDs are perfect height-wise, but their heads are a larger scale, but I find they work well enough. Of course it helps if I shoot the BIDs at 3/4 profile to help make their faces look smaller... So that opens up all kinds of story possibilities. Now I need to try some KIDs, and if they work then I'll need to make some smaller Medieval costumes.
Bianca wanted to introduce her new friend to Baron..... "This is Grace..." Baron took her hand... "It's so wonderful to meet you...."
Back in 2016 Easter came in March, right in the middle of a snow storm, making for a rather unusual Easter egg hunt........ *Story here In 2015 Ringo had a special Easter surprise......*Story here
April 12th is 'Look up at the Sky Day'.
Stare up at the sky, ponder why it is blue, and see how many clouds look like animals. The Easter Bunny decided to change things up a bit this year and hide something far more rare and valuable for the kids to find..... "Rolls of toilet paper? You've got be kidding?" Cinnamon was doing her best to play along..... But Tillie's basket was too small for even a single roll.... And Layla's basket was full with just one roll.... "This totally sucks!" 'They aren't even hidden very well...." "Okay, I have enough. I quit! I hope next year there will be chocolate eggs again...."
