*pigtail picture parade* anyone? :)

I found these hair bows today -- I bought them two summers ago for her! Isn't she a vision in pink?

How cute are the piggies?? My favorite style-love 'em! Here's Ava after she got a hold of my soda and did not want to give it back-I thought it was cute and took a pic.

Awww, they are all so cute! I just love a little girl in pig tails! I am happy to say that I can finally get Tati to sit still long enough for her piggies and she has to have 3 (you can 't see the one in the back in the pics) because her hair is not long enough for just 2 yet!
