The story of Isabella

I made this picture montage, since the scrapbooking isn't coming along as it should be - it is about 3 minutes - it's very cute - thought some of you might like to see it! (if it works!)

Thanks to Nola's mommy for inspiration and the song!

ok, try the next post

Mel...that was absolutely precious. Bella looks so happy and content...and so does her Mama!! Thanks for sharing.

I've been scrapblogging (currently working on the year 2005) which is my solution to scrapbooking. It's fun going through all the old photos and memories.
