Weekending




Quite.

Time outdoors... hiking, looking, listening. Being.
Cold. Refreshed. Alive.

Time making... making to distraction...
Stitching. Deconstruction. Reconstruction. Stamps. Beautiful crystal clear ice marbles.

Time reading, playing, cooking.
Together.

Thankful for our time together.

Avoiding the saturation of the news... not to avoid the reality but to protect my heart and my little ones.
Crying for those lost. Those left behind. Those forever changed.

Wishing you a peaceful start to the week ahead...

    1. Thank you KC.
      To make the ice marbles you make water ballons. Put them in a bowl nipple down in you want it to be really round. Set them outside... or in the freezer ;-) to freeze. Remove the balloon. Enjoy!
      It was -10C here this weekend. Prefect weather for this!
