Island Kids

 

These are my fourth cousins, wow that sounds weird doesn't it.   These little guys live on the San Juan Islands and Momma posted this photo on FaceBook the other night.  I just had to make a page. 

Aren't they just adorable??

Please check out my gallery page at Cottage Arts for a complete list of supplies used.

Up A Tree

Brynnie, much to Grandma's accelerated heartbeat, Up A Tree!

Eddie Cornered

I ran across this picture of Eddie tonight and just had to scrap it.

Love it when he smiles like this, it just melts a Grandma's heart!

Growin' Up Country

Mom and Daddy in the early years on Bunker Hill.
Always such hard working people.
Before my time, I don't remember the piggies that Aunty Florence and Billy are looking at.

Supplies all from Cottage, found here.

BLM - Rescued

In Utah the BLM (Bureau of Land Management) rounds up the wild horses from BLM land and adopts them out to locals.  We went to see up close and my heart just melted.  With shaggy coats that looked more like llama tuffs than what should be on a horse I wanted to bring one home with me.  Watery big brown eyes looked right into my soul and resisted the hands of humans, instead searching for the wildness of the land they’d just been taken from.  Imagine, a hundred years ago, when huge herds of these magnificent animals roamed all of our southwest.

Here Horsey

What a fun day, I got to go to Heidi’s Farm and see all the animals.  The horses were so big I wasn’t sure if I should feed them or not but Heidi told me just how to hold my hand and it was cool when they came and took the food from my fingers.  I hope Mommy and Daddy take me back real soon.  maybe I’ll get to feed the horses again!
