Happy Earth Day!

 Hello, lovely readers!  Today, April twenty-second, as some of you may know, is Earth day.  In honor of that, I created a collage of Chrissa and I in each of the seasons: Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter.  I think my favorite of the four is Summer, but I like each one in turn; it's hard to pick just one!
What is your favorite season, and why?

Happy Easter!

Hi all!  I hope you are having a wonderful Easter.  Today, there was only one service at our church (there's normally two), so that gave Elizabeth and I a little more time to get ready.  After breakfast of delicious French Puffs, we headed out the door.
 When we got home, Mom immediately went into the kitchen and put the ham in the oven.  We have a tradition of making "green eggs and ham" (like the Dr. Seuss book) for Easter.  Mom has this cute little egg mold that she uses to make green Jello eggs.
 "May Chrissa and I open our Easter baskets?" Elizabeth asked Dad.
 "Ya, can we?" I added.
"You can bring them in here," he replied, "but let's wait for your mother."
"Yay!" I shouted.  Not wasting any time, I ran into the kitchen.
 Reaching on the table, I grabbed my green basket and headed back for the living room.
 "Let's go, Elizabeth!"
 "I am coming." she laughed, following me back.  Mom joined us with her camera, and insisted Elizabeth and I wait until she got a picture of us with our baskets.
 Here's Elizabeth,
 and here's me.  As soon as the photos were finished, Elizabeth and I looked at everything in our baskets.
Elizabeth got eye-covers, beads, a necklace and earring set, a little bottle of perfume, green yarn, and some candy.
 I got game cards, a large hair clip, a twine headband, a stuffed wiener dog, a lamb whistle, gumballs, and Pop Bursts.
 Hey- I need your help deciding what to name this cute wiener dog!  Comment below and tell me what you think I should name him.
How do you celebrate Easter? and What should I name the wiener dog?

April Showers and Spring Flowers

 Hi all!  I bet you have heard that saying "April showers bring spring flowers".  Or was it May flowers?
 Anyway, there was an April shower going on outside our house, so I decided to do a little drawing.
 I set up paper, an easel, crayons, and colored pencils.
 "What kind of flower should I draw?" I wondered aloud, staring at the black page.
 "I know!"
 "One, two, three, four, five pedals." I said as I drew them on my paper.
 "Now for some grass!"
 "And some clouds ..."  I slowly colored my picture.  
 After all, hast makes wast!
 Are you ready to see my "masterpiece"? (He - he)
 I'm not an amazing artist like my friend Saige, but it's fun to draw anyway.  I think I'm better a photography. ;^)
Do you like drawing?

Then we talked about everything under the sun, including the fact that without meaning to, we all wore purple shoes!
All in all, we had a lovely Saturday.

Decorating Our Table for Summer!


Hello lovely readers!  You all get a double post today.  This afternoon I decided to decorate our table for summer!  So, I picked some daises and put them in a old (cleaned-out) soda bottle.  Then I put on our pretty IKEA tablecloth.


  
What do you think?  Could this go for spring too?
