Christmas 2016

2016/12/30 Karen 0 comment

Christmas at Carl’s was nice and mellow– except for those who had a cold and/or got the flu and/or did all the cooking (not me). Unfortunately, it seems I only took out my camera once :(

Not shown:
– any of us adults (we didn’t just let Sage supervise the kids)
– Anna’s lovely Christmas meal
– 4 schnauzers behaving charmingly
– all our nice presents!
– chillin’ out with movies all Sunday long

Here’s what I did capture:

Late summer, fall, winter

This trip was actually last weekend, so I’m now pretty much caught up with posting photos.

Dogs and blankies

blankie-1 — One of three new blankies sewn from repurposed fabrics. Sage demonstrates how to ignore you in a blankie made from turtleneck sweaters and a leftover IKEA duvet cover.

blankie-2 — Here Abbey is modelling a blankie made with leftover fleece and more of that duvet cover.

blankie-3 — Not a new blankie, but the girls can’t do without.

Summer recap

2016/10/20 Karen 0 comment

The reason why I haven’t posted in so long is largely related to having no well-functioning camera. Then summer ended with the fall of the PT Cruiser and three weeks of car shopping.

This is an amalgamation of bits of things we did, but it doesn’t capture what stands out. When I think of how time flew by, I think of going for a quick swim every afternoon and spending a lot of time watering the garden.
