Ribbit!
My thoughts are soggy with all the rain we’ve had lately… it seems like a good time to revisit the frogs we’ve encountered on our recent travels.
Dad’s Day
My father had the BEST laugh, ever… I can still hear it. Happy Father’s Day, Dad! You are so very loved and missed.
Frightening Fashion Friday: Taking the Cake
We were always celebrating. I’m sure the hats were a family project… it’s good to know they were disposable.
Soon
You may think this is a sculpture, but it’s actually our pile-o-mail. H and I plan on getting to it this weekend… maybe.
Pop-Up Pianos
While in Ft. Collins, Colorado, our nephew and his family introduced us to Pianos About Town. This public arts project places pianos painted by local artists in surprise locations throughout the city to be discovered and enjoyed by the public. H played a couple of tunes on this piano while our niece danced to the music.
Frightening Fashion Friday: A Study in Contrasts
I’m good with the outfit (although the white shorts are blinding). That snarl and shaggy hair combo, however, is too much. (Please… ignore my sister — she’s always happy!)
Round and Round
Stars in a Bucket
Magic can be found even in a bucketful of weeds.
Frightening Fashion Friday: Another Day at the Beach
I’m stylin’ once again at the beach… too much hair, oversized glasses (to find lost puzzle pieces and seashells), and those silly balled-up fists.
