The Warm Temperatures Bring my Creativity Back to Life

With the coming of Spring, I always find myself opening up my heart to accomplishing things I've left unattended throughout the winter. I love the sun. It brings with it gardening, digging in the dirt, dreams of splashing in warm water and the coveted vitamin D, which brings me to life! Today at my MOM's group we created a decorative jar and I decided to follow an antique French motif...you can judge if I succeeded, but I love my jar. It makes the perfect, simple vase for my very favorite: calla lilies.

If you know Valerie Sjodin's artwork, you'll notice one of her self portraits on the far left. I love that little piece.

To the Camas Center

We took a trip to the nearby waterslide park/fitness center and loved it. The babies loved walking around in the warm water and especially enjoyed the slides, also known as "wees". Silas loved squirting people with the built-in water guns and playing pretend with his friends.

My friends Shawna and her boy who's the same age as our babies.
