Preparing to be more


I had a wonderful time yesterday at my last show of the year. It was held at the Kalamazoo Nature Center. We were busy all day and I met some wonderful people!  I hope they decide to do the show in the spring, too.

I love the Nature Center because it is so peaceful and tranquil.  I love the green lushness of all the trees, even this time of year.  I look at the bare trees and know they are simply preparing to be fuller, larger, and more of what they are supposed to be next year.  I love feeling I get when I walk in a forest, a feeling of being lost and exactly where I belong at the same time.

It is very appropriate that my last was at the Nature Center.  2012 has left me stripped and bare, but not empty or dead.  I am simply preparing to be more next year.

Merry Christmas, a la Star Wars


My niece made an ornament for us this year. Why is the gingerbread man painted black? Because she loves Star Wars. This is Darth Vader. :) I love being a nerdy family.
ps: it is great to be back after being sick for over two weeks.

Our Tree

I tried a new color theme for our tree this year - chocolate brown, green, pheasant feathers, and lots of sparkle!

And glass, of course!
