back from philly

 

despite this picture, we had an AWESOME time in philly last week.
my sister kathy from CA flew in with her crew and we all spent the week together.
5 grandkids equals LOADS of fun. the cousins got along wonderfully. annalee just watched, later she will play too!
it is soooooooooooo great and nice that they are all so close in age.
more pics to come.

art play again

 

 

 

 

yeah for summer!
we started up art play again with gudrun hosting. she of course only goes over the top and sawed pieces of thick wood and nailed a paper canvas over for all mamas and children. then we collected things from nature and used her strong homemade glue.
