print love

I was lucky enough to be mentioned on another of my favorite blogs today!  Sfgirlbybay was kind enough to post about my prints.  Thank you so much!

spring is coming

I just put up some new prints in the shop.  Both feature a bunny.  Spring is coming, yay! 

Can you tell I have a thing for pull toys.  My kids have grown out of them, so gone are my excuses to snap up all the cute ones I see out there.

birthday girl

Yesterday we celebrated my daughter’s eighth birthday (8!), with a pool party.  I made a sandcastle cake and she had the best time.  Certain birthdays always surprise me.  When they turn from 3 to 4, it seems like such a big jump to me, and now 7 to 8 feels the same.  Like we are leaving one stage and entering another.

swifts

My very favorite Portland tradition our family has is to go watch the Chapman swifts make their annual trip down the schools chimney.  Every year we say this is Portland at it’s best!   Here is a new print inspired by this yearly event.  (you’ll have to wait until next fall to see them again)

We made 50 or so of these this week for the kiddos to pass out.

They were so excited this morning to get a valentine card from

mom and dad, it was almost like Christmas to them!

I’ve had my eye on this amazing lighting for a while now.  Really just beautiful.
