Just a quick post. A friend in Michigan (who we haven't seen in many years) is on her way here for a weekend visit with us and some other folks, but staying we us. We aren't good housekeepers, so spent the last two days cleaning. Chris, hope it's lovely at the lake with BFFATS! Love your LO...

Wonderful, wonderful! It is a fabulous photo and lovely treatment of it.

Sorry to be late also, but hoping it was a wonderful day with a wonderful year to follow!

Here's another week! Felis, you couldn't see much of my drawing last week, but that was only the first pass. I've worked on it a little more, but it has a long way to go yet. Hope you'll enjoy when it's done.

Yet another week, ending with a surprise visit by a family of deer. Credits: -background: Intuitive, paper-pack: Vintage Gesso by NBK Design -paint: Counting, Artsy bits & pieces No. 1 by NBK Design -photo mask: WaterColor FotoBlendz No. 5 by Anna Aspnes -flowers: Dreaming of Spring by...

Oh, Felis, thank you so much. What a wonderful way to start my day!

Another interest is photographing the sky. This wasn't really storm though it looks that way. Credits: -background: 52 Inspirations {2012} week 42 by Vicki Stegall -word art, purple paint: 52 Inspirations {2012} week 31 by Sue Cummings -patterned paints, scrap: 52 Inspirations {2012} week 3...

It is wonderfully handsome! Her expression is priceless and the series of birds a wonderful design.

Felis, your sweet week 28 looks delightful - and yummy! I had a happy week too.

Orioles in the yard have been the excitement this week. We haven't gotten any photos, but I added one DH took in 2014. Credits: -background: Experimental Watercolors, Neutrals I by Blue Flower Art -mask: Sketchbook, Ink Masks/Strokes by Joanne Brisebois -leaves, twig, orange paint: Oscraps...

After the yard behind us was cleared of a lot of vegetation we thought the bunnies would be gone, but still around some days. Credits: -background, butterflies: Oscraps Collab Sizzle -flower, word art, script: Oscraps Collab C'est la Vie -large mask: 12 X 12 Page FotoBlendz No. 9 by Anna...

Felis, I'm so sorry you are dealing with awful weeks! I know you can scrap through them though, so hope that will help. It's a week past now, but here is my week 27. Can't believe how time is escaping from me and now the days are getting shorter again. :confused:

Somehow never got here today! Hope it was a good day for everyone. Trudy, big congrats on the new grandson! Not on facebook, so glad Chris posted here. Know you're delighted. The grape jelly on the oriole feeder was new to us this year. The feeder was a present to DH. Only the House...

Chris, sure hope everyone feels better soon. I know you miss seeing that little guy! But as Rae said, you got to be in the yard. You would love the excitement at our house today as a family of orioles found the oriole feeder and have been coming every so often. The male has been feeding at least...

We got a cold front with the stormy weather yesterday so it is cooler now but cloudy. Not sure what we'll do today. As to the bird counts, DH is part of a group doing them in one location, so hopefully someone else is signed up for today. Chris, I can imagine the trash pickup confusion. Here...
