Treats - the great motivator

Treats?
Yes, Chancey, the treats are currently residing in my pocket, and just as soon as you can convince Deefor to come back home, you can both share in the joy of the treats.
Aah, good. Now we're all here.
Treats, you may have, as soon as you both sit...at the same time...

Buried Treasure


A big thank you to TimothyAdamDesigns for featuring my etsy shop on his Buried Treasury Blog.

Change of Season

There are certain things that should be changed with the seasons:
a wardrobe,
blankets on the bed to either usher in the warmer or cooler months
and now my newest favorite obsession...soap.
There are so many sellers on etsy offering handmade soaps, so I would like to share just a few of my favorites with you for the current spring and upcoming summer months
Plumeria Soap by SpaTherapy

Crazy Coconut Soap by DennisAnderson
Pineapple Soap by SweetBody
Coconut Almond Soap by CatalanoSoapCo
Each shop offers samples of their soap at little or no cost, so if you see one you'd like to try, I highly recommend it!

Gooseberry Mesa

I thought they were joking, you know, tryin' to make me feel good, when they told me this trail was marked "extreme difficulty, but it was really true!"
The point
No comment...

Sean going down the "toilet bowl."

Ryan going down the "toilet bowl."
Please note - Sean is the cameraman for this piece.

And last, but not least, Mark going down the "toilet bowl."
The dialog beforehand went a little somethin' like this:
Yo - "Ah yeah, Mark! This one, this line right here. This is where he went."
Mark - "Oh, OK!"

Bootleg Canyon

Teeter Totter at Bootleg Canyon
Sean riding the teeter totter
Mark's turn
"You go first, Ryan. I'll be right behind you, so don't crash."
Here comes Christmas in April-gotta love the red and green!
Sean - "C'mon Yo! Your turn - Just go like this!"
Yo - "I can't. I'm thinking of my wife."

Sleep Tight, Little One


My creative wheels started turning when I stopped by decor8 this afternoon. I just love this time of year because the new spring lines are out everywhere - fashion, bedding, accessories... I was really struck by the use of color by Binth for their new spring line because the colors are so out of the ordinary. And so I got to thinking out of the ordinary! How adorable would a nursery be with this "Numbers" Poster hanging on the wall and this vintage tablecloth in my etsy shop, re-purposed as a baby blanket! Sleep tight, little one.

Gooseberry Mesa & Zion National Park

Tomorrow, we will be headed off to Gooseberry Mesa, where I will not be doing this like my husband.
The last time we were here together was 5 years ago.
Oh, I can't wait!
Off to pack, now!
