Have you met Tundra yet? She is a complete sweetheart. Calm, friendly, fabulous with kids … pretty much the perfect dog. But when she was a puppy she was wild. Wild. That was her past though. We try to not focus on that and instead focus on the sweetie she has become. I think of…
Paper Plate Apples, and Apples on a Plate!

2 Step VIBRANT Rainbow Rice {A Photo on Friday}
A photo on Friday, because sometimes all you need is the picture! Today I thought I would share a picture of some freshly dyed rainbow rice. I have been making rainbow rice for about 8 years now, and I must say – I’ve got it down to a fine science. As in, I have found…
A Marble Painted Monarch Butterfly Suncatcher
We are into our second week of homeschool and so far, so good! We have actually been so very busy with lessons, sessions, and activities with our co-op that I think we will have to cut a few things out. After all, we must be at home sometimes to in fact homeschool. But anyways, things…

A Sticky Fix {A Photo on Friday}
A photo on Friday, because sometimes all you need is the picture. I had been thinking (and thinking and thinking) about the best way to display my little ones art work. Our pictures can be really big (or very small) and I wanted to change them quite often. Just the other day I decided to…

Handprint T-Shirts {A Photo on Friday}
A photo on Friday, because sometimes all you need is a picture. (Thought I might need to change the wording, as I very rarely actually share just a photo). I wrote a little bit about some crafts we had planned for our cottage trip this year a few weeks ago. I really wanted to find…
Fall Button Trees
Too soon for a Fall post? Hmmm … if so, please feel free to make these summer trees (you summer-loving Mamas you). But it’s coming … that F word. I actually like the F word, just not the W word. Did I lose you? Welcome to John’s world my friends. This Quiet Bin is another…
