2:13 AM Sunday, May 18...in PARIS!

Dsc03381 Seeing how it's already Sunday in Paris...I'm going to claim it!  So two weeks from Paris Sunday I'll be on my way!  My mom and I fly out Sunday (our time).  Yay!  I'm packing light that is why I bought the tide and shout.  :o)  Bathtub laundry.

new to the studio

Dsc03379 in love with my new flat file...

it was rather messed up and needed a bit of tlc.  instead of staining it, i decided to go for black. 

now all that i need to do is organize the two drawers that contain all my paper. ugh.

Happy.Mother's.Day!!!

Dsc03378 Isn't this the sweetest note ever?!

Long ago, 17 years to be exact, I studied to become an interpreter for the deaf.  Joshua just recently became interested in sign language (finger spelling, really).  He drew all these hands to spell out his Mother's Day message.  "We Love You Mom".

I'll be keeping this forever!

Dsc03376 Here's the other part of my gift...breakfast made by the guys, and homemade card all done outside in our lovely backyard.  I am certainly blessed.

Black-bellied Whistling Ducks

Dsc03374 They're baaaaack....

There are just two right now but there have been as many as five in this tree.  They only come this time of year.  I'm not sure if this tree is their permanent home or some other place.

I researched them a bit and they are not migratory birds.  They mate for life :o) , are nocturnal feeders, and travel in flocks when they're not mating.

They 'peep'. They do not quack.

More weekend shots...

Dsc03352 These two younguns were playing together.  I just happened to get a lucky shot of one going in for a head butt.  :o) Too bad the sun was so bright...

(i.love.bellville.)

Way yonder behind that fence is a donkey.  There were 5 donkeys by us.  That poor lonely donkey was braying and talking to the five and the five started to talk back.  :o)  It was like neighbors talking over a fence.  It was cute.  Those guys sure are loud.

(i.really.love.bellville.)

(especially after being caught in a tent during a lightening/thunder/rain storm.)

heart rock

Joshua found the above rock on our donkey petting expedition.  I'm wondering if it's possible to use personal images for business cards?  Does anyone know the answer to that?  This would be a good image for me.  (I like how his hands are dirty.)
