San Francisco

 You know when you go into a city and it has that certain charm?

  You see little bits of art and inspiration everywhere you look

                                          Colors and shapes grab you.

                                                 Maybe its the history

                                             Maybe its the landmarks

                                              Maybe its the people of all kinds

                 This wasn't my first time here like it was for my kids

                                 And I hope its not the last.

Christmas in Northern California

                                                                   Pacific Grove

                                  Christmas Eve Dinner

                                   Gadgets for everyone

                               Whale watching

                                 Good walks

                                  Some play

                              and the beautiful ocean.

New room

And because inspiration strikes at the weirdest times, I painted Avery's room a color called "salty tear". It is a lovely shade of blue and makes the whole room look great.

And we're off......

But before we go. I thought you would like to see what we've been up to.

 Peppermint Cookies- yummo!!!

 Project Momma Cat and Kitten- both ferel and both scared of humans. Big time! I'm working my way from 10 yards to 5 yards without them bolting.

 A visit from Big sister Dani who is now not the tallest girl in the house. We loved having her stay with us.

 God sends me this cat from next door so I relax. He demands to be let in and I snuggle him and just breathe:)

And just because he is the little man of the house. Our little lion.
Merry Christmas and I will see you the coming New Year.

Tis the Season

 Party favors made....

 Stockings hung with care......
