The Makeup Artist

My budding makeup artist got her hands on some eyeshadow. I'm really impressed that she realised what it was and where it was supposed to go (sort of). She was very proud of herself since she went looking for me when she was done to show off. She even showed me the eyeshadow she had found to prove that it was eyeshadow and not crushed chalk or something. I had to distract her with an offer to take her picture and then wrestle the eyeshadow away from her.

BIrthday Boy

Ethan turned 7 today. Here are a few pictures of the festivities.

The Cake: Ethan had asked a few times for shamrocks for his birthday so I made him a shamrock cake.



The birthday green eggs and ham egg pie (also know to some as quiche). We love Dr. Seuss in our house.



Ethan blowing out the candle.

Spring is Coming

I saw these beautiful sights as I was running in and out doing errands today. Sophia excitedly joined me as I took pictures with my new camera.

First up, winter aconite and Sophia's finger.


Next, two yellow crocuses. There are lots more ready to burst forth in the next week or so.
