this is dorthy on her yellow brick road which is my sidewalk in back yard we painted in june and its still yellow. ha the tag says follow the yellow brick road

this is a funny picture the little one is always putting her hands over her ears. she dont want to hear it. so I put on the tags dorthy is telling her to get some courage and the baby saying I dont want to hear it

being a lion is tuff so i stick with being a little punkin.
