Christmas 2012

Happy Holidays!

I hope this finds you enjoying a warm and
cozy winter holiday

with loved ones and friends.

Here are

some highlights from our Christmas-

a whole lot of words aren't needed...

That is Orange-Hazelnut Dark Chocolate Bark above on right.

Kids making chewy molasses spice cookies that turned out more like Ginger Snaps!

above: Home-made Italian fig cookies called Cuccidati...they are amazing!

below left: home-made almond meringue cookies.

Christmas morning...before presents..

After...

a wonderful moment & gift from an auspicious visitor...

Greg totally re-did the play room for the kids...

Thank you for checking in on us today and all year!

All our very best to you and your family in 2013..

Happy New Year!!

lots of love,

Quentin

An Opportunity for Art

When we moved into our new house, one of the first thing we did was take out the closets doors in the kids' rooms and the playroom...The doors were old, beat up and just kind of ick...basically left with a blank canvas, something crafty was bound to happen!

Play Room Curtains
These panels are great because they were easy to make and they easily hide all the kids' stuff but still make it all very accessible. My tip of the day: IKEA FABRIC..inexpensive and amazing!!
