Back to work

Time to get back to work, spring has me feeling pompoms, the pastels, the delicate blues, but still the warmth of working with real wool between my fingers on these chilly mornings.
This is a mobile, I envision it over a baby's crib, or in a childs playroom or bedroom. The happy colors and texture would add fun to any space.Each pom pom made individually by hand

While I worked on these, this boy was busy working on his presentation of the parrot. 

He had to make a diorama , it pretty much blew my mind, first he watercolored then cut his parrot out of cardboad. I love it, so tropical and lush, be still my heart!

Happy weekend

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
