:: seriously enjoying the bounty of preschool artwork Dieter brought home on Friday
:: finding these little "gifts" made secretly by Dieter and squirreled away in my studio for safe keep until Christmas
:: a teensy bit of mama crafting in stolen moments
:: trying out an Indian Corn activity from this book
:: outings to the park with art supplies and new sketchpads
:: wearing scarves (and feeling grateful that it is just cool enough in the afternoon to wear a lightweight jacket--hooray!)
:: making these healthy cookies again (which I've decided I love)
:: making homemade finger paints in Fall colors
:: playing with said finger paints exactly 17 minutes before losing interest
:: brotherly hugs
:: enjoying this cornucopia made for me by Ken with items entirely from our yard.
:: trying to be mindful of this message
And vacation is only beginning! Hope you are having a wonderful late November whereever you are.

Beautiful photos as usual. Such a sweet family you have to be thankful for.
Yum, I am eager to try those cookies. What kind of chocolate do you use? My little guy goes completely loopy on chocolate so I have to use it VERY sparingly which is probably not a bad thing, but is so hard because I LOVE it.
Your beautiful posting is a great reminder of all the little things that sometimes go unnoticed that we should be thankful for. especially love the cornucopia filled with things that you have nurtured with love - just like you are doing with your children and are now enjoying the wonder of them "blooming". Thanks Sam.
I need some of that art for my refrigerator!
I just wanted to let you know that I picked up fabric over the weekend to make some of your bean bag frogs for my daughter and my 4 nephews. I know they're going to love them!
Looks like you've been enjoying your break :)
So many wonderful things, I love the finger paint recipe. Thanks for sharing it, and I hope you have a great, restful week.
Wow, thanks everyone for such lovely comments! I appreciate them so much.
Cakesniffer--the first time I made the healthy cookies I used dark chocolate bars (from Trader Joe's) and cut them up, and they were still good, but less sweet of course. This time I used standard semi-sweet chocolate chips (my dad bought us a GIANT bag of them at Costco) and they were yummy and much sweeter. My boys ate them both ways. Enjoy--I hope you like them!
LOVE all these shots! Especially the art wall!!!!
Thanks for the chocolate tip. We'll be making them tomorrow, and heading out for a L O N G walk afterwards to work off those chocolate induced sillies.
just beautiful shots . . . so sweet and colorful. thank you.
Children love to squabble with colors and I think sometimes we must give them a free run.
