instagram: yarn bombing
Camille always enjoys seeing bits of yarn bombing around Decatur and elsewhere. Chloe says these get in the way of her acrobatics, however.

The scaffolding is now complete and soon the truly noisy part will begin. I ned to find somewhere to hide for the next month or two.

Chloe moans about practicing, but she really does like playing the violin and wants to continue with it next year … typical kid, I suppose.

We woke to rain. Instead of a long, lazy morning at LEAF, we decided to not take our chance but to pack up before it started raining even harder…

Chloe devoured her snack after riding the zip line into the lake…

A mad morning of working and packing. An afternoon of collecting Chloe, eating with the goats and driving. Finally, we were all settled in at our camping site at LEAF.
photo friday: ochlockonee river state park, fl
For our Gulf Coast Spring Break trip, the girls and I spent two nights camping at Ochlockonee River State Park. While this park did not meet our spring break criteria of being near the beach, it was the closest I could find after waiting until March to plan our trip. After slamming on the brakes

It is going to be a very noisy few months here at our place ….

Gazoo knew I wasn’t feeling great yesterday and decided to hang with me for quite a long time. Sweet kitty.

Despite how not-so-good our feelings about Chloe’s school are at the moment, we are doing our best to participate in “Teacher Appreciation Week”. I’m not feeling very appreciative tight now, but don’t feel like we have any choice but to feign appreciation. At least the leftover flowers look nice on my table.
instagram: yelp kickoff party
For the next two weeks, Yelp’s Passport to Decatur Square! will be participated in by a number of places around the square. Rob and I went over to the kick-off last night, but there were fewer restaurants participating than I had hoped. And 2 of the 3 food samples were of the meat variety…

Camille had a down day today. She did go to an author talk at Little Shop that inspired her a bit, but most of the day she stayed around the house working on her various projects.

It was a Decatur day. We walked everywhere we needed to go. In the evening we went to see an author talk at Little Shop and then headed to the square for a bit of the concert.
instagram: rain
It seems like it has been forever since the last time it rained. I was so ecstatic that I actually rearranged the living room in order to get the best view of the falling drops.

Sometimes I miss working in the garden. I don’t miss the hard, packed clay that we call “dirt”. I don’t miss the weeds. I do miss the feeling of accomplishment, though. I’ll just have to find it elsewhere. And I’ll sit back and enjoy the lovely courtyard that I get to walk through every day
instagram: watching me work
I spent most of the day shuttling kids around, so I’m now working very late in the day. And I have company…. She isn’t impressed by the bugs I’m finding, however.

Our trip to JFK from Manhattan went so smoothly that we had over an hour to kill after we got through security. Camille and I returned to the restaurant we ate at last year on our way home from Kindiefest. We enjoyed the downtime immensely.

Of all of the friends that we got to hang out with at Kindiefest this year, I think we’ve known Ralph the longest. We first met him over 9 years now … he was our very first kindie musician! In those nine years he’s been to our house; we’ve been to his. And Camille has

Gooney Bird enjoyed listening to the birds in Central Park today.
