egg bound rehearsal

Check out this video of some sober zany action!

 Building a "kid's garden"

Of course Theo has to invent his own tool!

Ain't she a beauty?!

No, Ain't SHE a beauty?!  (Straight from Dr. Seuss)

NO,  SHE'S the  Beauty! 

(can you believe I actually grew one of these?)

The Recital

Here we are at the end-o-year recital.

Theo wants to stop piano and move onto guitar.  

We told him to give it a year.

He's been going for 1  1/2 years.

He's really catching on quite nicely and we'd love him to continue on w/ piano since it is so lovely for the basics of reading music and beautiful for hand-eye coordination and all the other numerous reasons why.

We don't mind that he learn guitar, but are open to creative suggestions for incentives or something to continue on with piano for a little bit longer.  Any thoughts?

Here we are at Lummi Island once again, thanks to some fine family friends!

Can't believe we forgot to take a family photo ... well, yes I can, but dang-it-all!

Willy heading to "Lummi Rocks".

The "Hobitat" dominates the tent-city skyline.

Here are a few pics from our adventures in Victoria, BC with Cuckoo, Josie and Granny:

A wee bit of Tulip Time here in the Northwest!

The garbage containers were some of my personal favorites!

Cheers from the "Clipper"!

Happy Mother's Day Nana!
