What started as simply watering the rhubarbs turned into an all-out one-sided mud fight. It was a great way to finish off a good day.
My parents and uncle came to visit and bring my belongings from way back during my pre-Ecuador days. The week was filled with mostly work, but we managed to have a little fun too. Fern especially had a great time being entertained by everyone that was here. She needs a sibling. :) As you will see, when I was desperate for a photo, I snapped one of the garden. Clever, right?
9:34 – my uncle, first thing in the morning.
7:02 – oh, how I love succulents!
8:30 – dinner is served! with my grandmothers vintage wine glasses (new to me!)

I absolutely love this post! Family is so important…and I love how you documented it. The heirlooms, the sharing, the love is evident. I mean, look at Grandma’s expression in the last one – she just loves that little girl. :)

Love seeing all the fam! Your posts always remind me that I need to get better about documenting ours. Fern is going to love all of these someday.

Wonderful day with family! I love how you documented it. The one of Fern on the couch with her “dinks” is precious! And I really liked the one of your dad putting up the cork boards because it made me think of my dad who always helps with the handyman stuff.
Would love to hear more about your life in Guam and Equador! So interesting!

Looks like a fun time with family! I am slightly jealous of your art and craft room! How exciting!

These are amazing photos. First I love the robe your uncle is wearing. Those glasses – my grandma had the same style but as a regular beverage glass. All your garden and flower photos are awesome – those daisies are beautiful.

I love these pictures. The back-up dinks made me laugh out loud :) I’m excited to see your garden.
Just planted our garden this weekend. We are just loving our new place!

Such a cute photos of your girl and that bonnet she is wearing is to die for! I love the first couple BWs with her daddy but all of them are fabulous.

Very beautiful pictures!!! Cute girl, nice effects!
So we close on our new house in less than 2 days. We are so excited. We were temporarily living in a tiny rental in an area that was not super accommodating of family life. It was sort of industrial, commercial, and ghettoish. I brought the camera along to document our last walk around here.
Even the cat, Horace, comes along on walks with us:
I’ve been into making Fern dresses from recycled fabrics. I found this awesome vintage tee with a mushroom on it and turned it into this dress. I’ve been practicing on clothes for Fern, but I hope to open an Etsy store sometime soon! Stay tuned!
Her dad told her to highlight the mushroom in this one.
