This and that

My good, bestest, most favoritest camera is broken, and the colors on this one have not been inspiring me to take many photos. 
99.99 % of my shots now take place on my i-phone, and if I could figure out a way to import them here I would.
Non the less, some snaps of the last week.
Chikkies are big now, funny how that happens, they are still so sweet and docile, man I love chickens, always have...so does our entire family. More so when they will start laying eggs! :)
There are many little weekly events to keep up with, like soccer practice (at the other end of town)
cello, piano, recitals and plays, etc. Proud of Zi in soccer, he's good  at it just like his papa.
amidst the businessI sit in the yard and smell the free perfume of the lilac bush...mmmh
their  hilarious play, I mean I was laugh/crying through it
we are supposed to be in the process of a room makeover for both big kids, but we can't settle on colors. 
This girl did get an amazing hand made with river reeds from the Ganges, chair!
and a plant and a real kilim wool pillow from Turkey
May means tulips
I was tapped to make salmon for Zi's play, Loki and Thor, it was such a fun departure to just let y imagination free to cut, sew , stuff and paint these
and all the while I am makin. Weaving is obsessing me at the moment
loving my little loom, all real wool and roving, and geometric patterns
I mean look at this shot: do you see what I mean about the colors/light of this camera? this was a vibrant room with lots of light, phsssh
more weavings. Obsessed.

Happy thursday

Re-entry, and barely springtime

We thought we would sweeten the hard re-entry by getting some baby chicks, 
well we where planning on it all year actually, but the timing was right.
The kids are smitten, there are 5, they are all girls, and they all have names.
This lovely storm greeted us, much to hubby's chagrin
from sunshine to shoveling
snowpants, and ready to go back to school (kinda)
we had our own little egg dying party, very gaudy colors, but hey, whatever they wanted! its what happens as they grow older
 this girl had been practicing her lines for the play back in Panama, 
Joseph the dreamer, she was Levi
rare photos,  Easter morning
oh my, its a real one!
egg hunting at frog belly farm
and a few snapshots from home
Zi painted and wove this basket, and planted grass seed, so beautiful
Imani spring decorated
the chicks first day outside
he was not impressed

Happy tuesday
