Hood Canal

A glorious morning to get to Seattle and wake up at Hood Canal.

J and I are talking and talking and catching up on everything.

There was fog with blue sky right behind. It's wonderful sleeping where

the tide comes right up to the house.

We watched ducks and loons and other un-named waterfowl.

Could the Olympic Mountains be any more gorgeous?

Baby Brother

Seattle from the Ferry on the way to J's party.

Brother J is 60 (at the end of the month,) so his daughter hosted a party and I got to go!

Catching up with nephew S, brother D. Handsome, Huh!

J and J doing Karaoke. . . . lots of fun and laughter

Happy Birthday Little Brother!

Here I Come!

See you all, soon, all you left hand coasters. I'm visiting for a week. . . .

I'm having a nice day today with Miss C ending with a beautiful moon-viewing. . . .

Coasters

More sewing -- inspired by "Mad Men."

"Sticker Pots"

Eating pot stickers for dinner tonight; Miss C decided they were "Sticker Pots!"

She liked them.

Happy Thanksgiving

Sleepy Miss C, driving home after a busy weekend.

A belated Happy Thanksgiving to you all.

I am feeling very richly blessed after a wonderful weekend in upstate New York. Delicious meals, great company, phone calls from loved ones far away, laughing and enjoying a precious two year old.

And a great movie: An Education. What have you seen lately?

Two Toys

I'm loving making little toys for Toy Society drops; here are my latest:

(Have you checked out the link to The Toy Society?)

Red Love Dolly

Here she is in Woodstock, NY waiting for someone to find her today, November 1.

My spy thought she saw a family come, read the note, and take her home, giggling all the way.

I hope they enjoy her and give her a good home.

Wide Awake Blue is ready for lots of fun.

He was tied to this post on October 30 in NYC.

I hope someone comes soon, as he wants to PLAY!
