You know that excitement when you find out your going to be a Grandparent?
I got the same feeling when I found out one of my dear besties was going to become one this summer--AMAZING!

My first question to her was, what do you want them to call you....she thought maybe Bunny as her name is Bonny--that's when I lost it.  How sweet!

Here is the card I made for Bonny with the subtle Bunny theme lol
I also sent her a book to read as soon as she holds the sweet baby!

I was also in a super rush to mail them that I took rushed photos.
Not as great as they should be, so use your imagination!
