Spring Visitors…

I mean are giant bubbles just totally the best! We could sit in our driveway for hours re-sopping up bubbles and twirling around…  saying good-bye to a little tooth… this little girl has a sensitive heart…  a fun day with Cecilia’s class… we made bird feeders to compliment their sweet little eco garden! Lots of … Read more

Easter!!!

I’m pretty sure that Easter is my favorite holiday… I think I love it the most because there’s not a lot of pressure… I mean don’t get me wrong… I go back and forth… Christmas, Easter, Christmas…Easter is fresh, new, light! I love the hyacinths at the grocery store that I have to stop to … Read more

Spring House day…

This was one of my favorite early mornings… I woke to Cecilia petting my face and saying, “Mamma, wake up… wake up…” She asked me if we could paint together… M E L T … so before I could even make the coffee I was setting up our mini easel and getting the water colors … Read more

just another day…

I just love these kinds of days… days that just last forever and ever… days that the simple parts… the pink cowboy boots and tortilla chips keep you going… googlie eyes hot glued on pants are just enough… This simple life or sillies just makes me so happy.

We let her invite just two close pals and her … Read more

Fiesta!!!

I just love the setting up of our parties… getting things just so… I love how now that our girls are older, how they love to help. They feel so proud. We love pinning fun ideas first, then getting creative making our own decorations, baking a cake, putting snacks out, tying balloons onto tree branches… … Read more

ten happened…

It happened… our little girl turned 10… just writing that starts that lump in my throat to activate into a  pile of damn tears that I really don’t know why they happen… could be I love her too much… could be the time just slips through my fingers too quickly… could be I can’t do … Read more

berry patch days…

For me childhood is about being outside freedom and in the fresh air… childhood is about grass stains and berry juice dripping from your elbows. Today is Earth Day and I thought why not write about nature, fresh air and heck, some strawberries! A few weeks back we met some sweet friends at a nearby … Read more
