happy leap day!

despite the chill and hair whipping wind we went to the park today. i was feeling a little artsy fartsy with my camera.



to see more go to my flickr page.

we are now on vacation. to help pass time i'm using scrap yarn to crochet a mammoth scarf.

making cookies

the beginnings of a dance party on the bed

some of my students playing on the playground at school

signing each valentine with love.

the beautiful baby boy of my bestest friend.

a live 3-D puppet show.

he found out today that a classmate knows where we live. as soon as we got home from school he grabbed an apple to eat while he waited and watched for this classmate to come over. i tried to tell him that adults need to make these plans, but for about ten minutes he was convinced she was coming regardless.

a few women from my church and i got together to go snow shoeing. the snow has melted and iced over so we went for a moonlit walk on the icy paths through our local conservation center. afterward we met at our home to enjoy a warming fire.

thought this came out cool. they tried to make the word 'love' with glow sticks.
