We had a long and rainy and very enjoyable weekend. I have much to be grateful for--we are truly blessed and lucky to live here. Here are some of the simple pleasures of the weekend:
{buying little treats at Farmer's Market}
{seeing Rainer wear and enjoy his "woolen sweater" as he calls it}
{wearing headscarves--so fun!}
{these little purple blossoms Ken unearthed in the otherwise dead cutting garden}
{a fresh batch of homemade deodorant--truly a *simple* pleasure}
{studio tea time}
{seeing Dieter create wonderful designs with wooden tiles}
{art time with the boys}
{making collages and Dieter's contributions--he selected the little girl and wrote "LOVE" across her}
:: reading to the boys this rainy day :: watching WALL-ee on Dieter's movie night :: cooking and sewing and baking
I was just thinking making some more deodorant too. I use it everyday and will never go back to store bought. I was thinking about posting a tutorial soon and sending out some small sample jars to those who want some. My girls love collage time... Love your photos!
Looks like a great weekend! Don't you wish every weekend was 3 days. I know I feel so much more immersed and relaxed with my kids after the 3 day weekend. :)
Mary Beth - are you using the collage book as your inspiration book? I have so many pictures being kept in a file or stuck on the back of my studio door, but I think I would prefer to have them in a book so I can take them with me to study up for my next projects. Geez, I just love my blogging friends for all their great ideas!
It's Lilly--it's sort of a combined nature journal/sketch book/inspiration journal. It's just for fun, with no expectation of being "good." That's how I like it.
Thanks for visiting my blog. I'm wife to Ken, stepmom to Ben, and mom to Jacob and Faith, Dieter and Rainer. I like the domestic scene, salty/sweet combos, recipe reviews, the smell of rosemary, babies, the feeling of having exercised, hand clapping rhymes, books, Friday Night Lights, teacups, and laundry that has been washed, dried, folded and put away.
My Faerie MB blog explores what to wear when you are 40+. But everyone is welcome, of course!
