It was a great Easter...

We just missed our LE and Jon...

Easter bunny's comin'

We dyed eggs today. Madison called this one "her boy" ...maybe that is from "Finding Nimo" ???? She is something else....

HAPPY EASTER EVERYBODY!

Happy BD Jill

We had a nice family day for Jill's birthday. We played with our new chicks, planted in the garden and had bar-b-qued hamburgers and cake with a flaming lotus candle.
Wendy is a little too curious abot all those "peeps"....
This is the cute little bunny Mary made all us house mates at ArtFest. LE and I slept with ours...He is sitting in one of the new chairs I got at Punch in Santa Barbara. Love them!...so does bunny.
This is the chicks coming home from the feed store. Madison put the stuffed duck in there for them.

Back from ArtFest....

It was great. Saw old friends made new friends....got some new tricks in my art bag. Can't believe it was 10 days...except for the 10 day stack of dishes Earl left me....It was a great trip too... with lots of lucky things happening...like I did not get a ticket going 83 in a 70...and Anahata's shop newly open in Ashland The Nick Cave Show at the SAM and many more small wonders. I think Mary and I should call this the cookie trail. We know all the good ones along the way and those cookies help us get through the long stretches.... All kinds of weather...sleet, snow flakes, harsh wind and rain but lots of sun in Port Townsend!!! All kinds of food...from cereal eaten with a barret in the room to delish Italian in Berkley with Mary's son and his buddies. ....and LE and I getting to hang out alot is always the cherry on top...
I am posting all the photos from my amazing students on my Flickr. They were the best!!! I sold some art, dropped some off at Broadway Books in Portland and now I am out of work....Everything else I had is in the amazing store Punch on State in Santa Barbara. So I need to get back at it!
