Spooky Cupcakes...

Antonio & I spent the afternoon at Luca's classroom party. We were at the food table helping the kids decorate their cupcakes.  You can imagine it was a sticky, sweet job & lots of fun!
Round two... ding, ding, ding... Off to put on our customs & head into the dark with glow stick in hand.

Happy Halloween!

2 days away!

Are you ready?
Feeling spooky, ready to carve the pumpkins, stocked up on the candy, have you been telling ghost stories in the dark with only a flashlight???  Yep, us too!  We are ready to "trick & treat" and can't believe it will be Halloween in just 2 days... Fun!

The Weekend

Having Antonio away is always an exercise in gratitude for me.
Luca got sick  (strep throat) the day he left so it was long days & long nights of trying to make him as comfortable as possible on my own.  Feeling much better now...  I wanted to do something special with him so we headed to the orchard.  Fresh air, animals, cider & color!

We even got a good picture...

We continued the fun later that night at an annual ghost stories in the woods event.  Spooky, but still manageable for us both. (I'm as big of a scaredy cat as him) Ha!

Animal Odd Couples

Meet Kate (the dog) and Pip (the deer)

So..We all know you can spend an hour watching tv just to end up thinking... what a wast of time!  Wednesday night is a favorite around our house.  We like to watch Nature & followed by Nova.  Last nights Nature episode "Animal Odd Couples" was delightful!  The show is about unlikely animal friends & it is fascinating.  If you have a chance watch - it doesn't disappoint.

*cliff notes: we all need a good friend

Pattern Explosion!

This morning Antonio & I are preparing the banners & booth decor the Evolution show. (part of dutch design week)
He leaves Thursday for Eindhoven (about an hour & half train ride from Amsterdam)  The Evolution show begins this Saturday the 26th and runs thru Monday the 29th.  Our booth number is 3. 32 (ring 3 booth 32) Stop by we have so many fun prints from florals to patterns, conversationals & more!

The show is in the Evoluon... Check out this cool futuristic building made to look like a UFO.  So wish I was seeing this in person!

Ahoy, Monday!

Oopsy Daisy has a new selection of wall art & decor on their site.  One of which is my A-Quatic-Z canvas.  (This would be a great piece in a boys room).  Head on over & check out all their new eye candy!

Roy G. Biv

It's a cool, raining Friday here. (the perfect kind of day for WAY too much coffee!)
This song is a new favorite around our house.  I wonder if They Might Be Giants ever
thought they'd be sining groovy, hip kiddy songs?  I am glad they are!  Do you know who
the illustrator is here?  The pairing is SO perfect...
Happy Friday rainbow chasers!
