Snapshots

*I've starting picking the guitar up again.  It's been years and years since I've played, but the bug has hit me lately.  It's so nice to be able to grab your instrument and take it where you want.  Piano is not quite as portable.  ;)

*I love that my girls are so into Powerpuff girls.  I was SO into them when I was younger and it makes me happy to see the love continuing.

*Poesy is almost too big for me to toss her in the air these days.  I'll be so sad when I just can't get her above my head anymore.  Better work on those muscles!

*I took the girls plant shopping for earth day and each picked something to put in the ground.  Hope chose a raspberry bush and Poesy chose a "flower bush".

*I've been working at redecorating our dining room over the past month or so.  I had this photo from our garden last year printed up as a blue print copy (for $12!) with some simple words ("eat a rainbow") to help remind us to eat our veggies... and Poe's scarfing a donut in this photo, so... perfect.  ;)

I hope you all had a nice weekend.  It's time for me to get that "beginning of the week steam" going to dive into various projects.  Happy Monday!

  4. That picture of Poesy is a pretty accurate depiction of how I truly feel when eating donuts. Absolute enjoyment, but also getting the wide-eyed wonder of getting caught in the moment. How precious!

  9. Boys with guitars are nothing compared to girls with guitars.

  13. I thought the eat a rainbow and then the donut eating were two separate pictures and laughed at your clever placement, but the fact that it was a sign ABOVE her makes it that much better!!

  21. Just two things:
    1) Poesy is THE cutest name!
    2) I loved and will always love Powerpuff Girls. I was obsessed with Buttercup when I was younger.
    2b) You've got the Blossom red hair going on. I dig it :)
