washi watercolor cards

May 1, 2012

Camille has been invited to several birthday parties this month. Though I adore celebrating, there is that little thing, the card and wrapping paper. I really love wrapping a gift, but not the cost or even waste behind birthday cards and wrapping paper. We really try to minimize around here (using old paper, tissue paper, [...]

pockets for africa

April 30, 2012

I finished up these little pockets this weekend and shipped them off quickly to Lori. I appreciate the online community and how many people come together and help a common purpose. Lori had mentioned thinking of those sweet smiling faces of the children in Namibia as she knits, and so was I. Camille full of questions [...]

africa love

April 27, 2012

Like I mentioned Monday, this week is Lainey week, and wow it is! I’ve been getting so many dandelion dream custom orders and then my heart leapt at Lori’s post, so instead of blogging about little Lainey I’ve been knitting and printing, and thinking about my little girl. So I guess the week will extend [...]

little lainey and her hair

April 23, 2012

My mind has been on Lainey a lot lately. We are reaching the three month point of waiting for our referral, and as I understand it we are still a ways off from receiving it. It boggles my mind, waiting on a child and being put on a waiting list when there are literally millions [...]

April 19, 2012

One of our outings we enjoyed this past week was pizza at the park. We found a new park, a great park that we love. It has lots of space and isn’t quite as crowded as our other favorite. The kids and I met up here with Chris and enjoyed a box of delicious pizza. [...]

Cami loves writing songs, notes, poems and books. She says “I’m an author and an artist.” The other night while folding laundry, I read through this book that she’d been working on this week. Here are a few of the pages: Entitled “My Best Family Ever For Me” The table of contents: In “kid” writing [...]

instagram

April 10, 2012

Instagram is now available on android phones. How exciting! I’ve always loved the swype feature on my phone and wasn’t going to give it up for a filtering phone app… and now I don’t have to. I’ve become a insta picture taking machine. Love it. If you are on instagram let me know, my user [...]

Easter Weekend

April 9, 2012

Easter definitely came quickly this year. I felt so “behind” trying to get ready for that as well of Chris’ Change of Command which came a little quicker than expected (the Navy certainly keeps us on our toes). My family came into town and it was great to see them and a few other friends [...]

spring days

April 4, 2012

Spring is in full bloom and the house we are renting has beautiful azaleas in both the front and the back yard. Every single day Cami tells Chris and I she wants to go check on the flowers. I love how she strung these pinks and white, alternating color, so specific. Writing stories, songs and [...]
