Color coordinated shelves

I cleaned up my cubes and fixed the color scheme.

Family room shelves in green and blue,

black and then red,

yellow, and tan.





Gnome Villages


I got some old needlepoint pictures at a thrift store and fixed them up with gnomes!




Mushrooms!


Some fun mushrooms made of bowls and vases. A very easy craft, and I love the results! Brian and Ethan get awfully worried about gnomes in the house though, so I keep a yeti on hand to combat any goings on.

4 Days in Yellowstone

My mom gave us the most fun Christmas present! She gave us 2 nights in the Mammoth Springs Hotel in Yellowstone National Park. We loved it! We really did see some bears! 3 grizzlies from far away and this black bear close up.
The buffalo were huge and snorting, these crossed right in front of our car.



The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone looks like a post card.
We drove through Lamar Valley every evening at sunset, it was a magical place. This evening it rained and we got to see a rainbow too.

The elk were grazing while we fished.
There is another valley that is gorgeous too, called Hayden Valley.

The Yellowstone River is so beautiful, and a fisherman's paradise. Chuck and me in front of Yellowstone Falls.
Lily pads in the blue-green river.
We started our trip in Jackson Hole, this is Jenny Lake.
