Sunshine in Seattle.

The Sun is setting on this beautiful, sunny Seattle day and my husband grabbed my camera while I was taking a tubby and got this shot of a barge going through our area. Have I mentioned I love my back yard?

We have a busy week a head of us as it's Holy week. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday we have things going on up at the church at various times. No rest for the wicked trying to become righteous.

It's been beautiful here the past couple days and I'm not holding my breath because I know how fast the weather changes here. I hope to hold on to a few more sunny days, it makes me want to grab my camera and go outside to see what I can find.

I gave a photograph of my artistic nature today for a gift and hope that it's the beginning of many more.

I'm off to bed now, yes I realize that it's only 8pm, I haven't been sleeping very well recently and am hoping to get an extra hour of sleep this evening.

Infinite X's and O's.

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off. This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it! I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!
