new stuff from the guys...

Okay........here's some new things the guy's have whomped up out in the wood shop and Lily napping outside the hot tub house......she has a really busy life.

The Last Childrens Fairy Festival

Yes...last weekend was the last Childrens Fairy Festival at Alpenrose Dairy...kind of bittersweet.
The weather was the usual eclectic spring mix..... gusty winds, sunshine and little rain then later in the afternoon it POURED. Dumping down rain with knock the tent over winds...so we packed up early. But up till then everything was lovely, nice families, happy music and many parades of cute fairies and animal creatures......very sweet. Why am I writing this a week late? Because I lost last week with the worst tooth pain ever. This was a hold your swollen face, whimper and rock your sad sorry self toothache...it was a 10....dang. It took all week to settle down and die. In about a week...root canal fun!

it was a nice day...

This was Easter.....nice flowers, we had a good day and a lovely dinner.

bad bunnys! and bad dogs too...off the table!

....so today I was shooting some things to post on etsy. Shot Dad's stuff in the living room, the light is nice there. And shot Jeff's boats out on the roof of the hot tub pump. It was cold, kind of foggy and someone was burning trash so the air was smokey...ahh, spring!

The Buckman Sale.....

Karen, (now the Kindergarten Teacher) with her girls,
Cybelle (ready for a Rock Diva party, Cindy Lauper!!) and Delilah, all sharing their best smiles......

The sale went okay. A big relive after selling nothing at the DaVinci Sale at Christmas.....yes nothing, my worst sale ever. Just part of the worst Christmas ever.....
but it's over so let's move forward.

Anyway, Jeff and I were in our usual spots, he was in the auditorium and I was in the dance studio/gym at my round library table. Sat next to a nice jewelry lady, saw a lot of cute kids.
Now I just gotta wait for the check to come.

Dad's Valentines

Just posted these in Dad's etsy shop, www.goodwooddogs.etsy.com
He always made things like this for Mom.... they are tucked in all around the house....oh sigh.

something new......hats!

...so okay I bought these square brimmed hats at the gift show in Seattle so long ago I can't remember. And I pull them out, try one on, play with it...brim up, turn it...what ever and then put it back. But this time inspiration struck and ta-dah! So I cut them, sewed on trim and they look really cool....
I also found my hat box of berets
(used to sell them all ribbon embroidered....looked like something Heidi would wear...sold loads of them too) so anyway I appliqued a few for etsy....now if only they would sell!
