The next big adventure
So last weekend we took Tuesday to the pumpkin patch. We met up with a couple of friends: Karen’s lovely funny girls… and Karen, of course. This is as close as I got to all three toddlers together… FAIL! ๐ Tuesday picked this pumpkin. Whenever we walk up to the house she does this little …
Tuesday Today
A late lunch. After an early nap. That was due to extremely early waking. Finding the beauty in the little moments of a long tiring mama day (and night).
Artistic. Each in our own way
Tuesday and I have been being artistic lately. I need to get even more crafty, but that will require a holiday gift list. Right now we are just creating for who ever ๐ I found some sweet paper at an estate sale last summer so Tuesday is doing some fine artwork: I am completely enamored …
From the guild
This last Thursday Sciarrino and I headed to another meeting of our wonderful Portland Modern Quilt Guild. I love it so much. Wonderful people and a much needed break. I almost didn’t go as Bj had a late phone meeting (meaning Tuesday would be too loud to have hanging out in his office) but my …

The first cuts

Sketching
I’m loving this new app Bj got for his iPad. I think it’s called sketchbook pro. I really miss sketching. It’s something I did all the time in art classes in college. These are for my current obsession, scrapbooking. But I’m sure I’ll be experimenting with digital paintings soon.
I hope this isn’t too annoying
I am having serious trouble standing over my layouts and taking pictures of them straight on. Since my lovely daughter has been crazy beans lately and I haven’t a chance to re-take these shots, here are some not so great pictures of my layouts. Gosh I bet that really makes you want to read on …
