Color Chic

A Funfilled, Colorful Patch...

If you had the opportunity to spend the day with these two darling girls instead of working, wouldn't you?

While most of my days are spent working on the house, one special day was spent driving to Hood River with my favorite daughter!


It was a fantastic day, making a stop at a very fun, colorful pumpkin patch!

While Bennet exuded excitement running through the maze, I was finally able to snap a shot when she stopped to catch her breathI

And at the end of it all, Tuesday went out to find the muddiest pumpkin she could find!

The best part of the day was my favorite son was making sure work was still moving forward on the house! Thanks Brent!!

Sweet Bennet... !

Isn't she adorable? We sure think so!

It's hard to believe our Grand daughter is already one!

And I know I should have more photos of her, but this girl is always on the move!

She's going to keep her Mama on her toes, that's for sure!

A Nice Place to Break..

Ruckel Creek!

A Slow Start and Strawberry Jam...

Some days I really don't feel like being at the house at 8 AM... and today is one of those days. Finding balance is important and I'm still up early, but instead of rushing around getting ready for the day I will make Strawberry Jam.

Strawberries are abundant in our garden and if they spend much more time out there the slugs will discover them.

There's always a simple recipe on a packet of pectin and the food processor makes it that much easier.

The extra strawberries made a simple fruit compote (strawberries, a little sugar and lemon). Yummm... That will go on vanilla ice-cream later in the day!

A RECITAL...

Tuesday made the sweetest Gingerbread Girl... and I must say, the dance recital was definitely the best part of my day!

Auntie Kat and Uncle Brent were voted most photogenic with Tuesday!

February in Pictures...

With the busyness of life taking over ie: family, friends, home, house, Ribbon Jar and design... and not wanting to give up any of it...  I've decided to take Amber's challenge and share snippets of my life this month.
Are you up to taking this challenge?
I’ll answer any questions that come up about an image or post in the comments section, so feel free to ask me anything.

Just a lot of Fun...

 These may not be the best photos...

Taken through the window at dance... "Grandma we're not supposed to wear these tights but I wanted to anyway"... Love it! A girl that's going to do her own thing!

Having a snack in between orders!

First words of morning "Grandma you didn't wake me up so I could put my lipstick on"... That girl loves her lipstick!

We're having so much fun, who cares if the pictures are not the best!!
