http://itsme-elizabeth.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 26, 2013. Not long ago my newly 18 and adult girlie went on her first road trip. I wanted to do something special to celebrate this fun and exciting event and decided upon a little scavenger hunt. I gathered together notebooks, fancy papers, pens, stickers, tape, glue, scissors. And then I put together a little road trip scavenger hunt! The idea being that the girls would do the things on their scavenger hunt list and then start to create a journal of their times together. It is always fun ...

Tuesday, March 26, 2013. Spring is showing it's colours! I thought with Spring coming on like it is it might be nice to share some pretty flower pics from near and far. I just love it when the mustard appears.especially in large fields like this. Then there is my dad's garden always full of wonderful blossoms.redbud, forsythia, snow balls, hyacinths, freesia.just to name a few. This says Spring to me also.a stray bubble.just the thing to do on a warm Spring day! A trip to Filoli. Tuesday, March 19, 2013.

Monday, January 13, 2014. I got a whole set (many many) of gel pens from my Hubby for Christmas. I was not sure what I thought of gel pens.can you draw very tiny? Are the colours nice? They sure look like fun! One morning last week Madison and I decided to have a cup of tea and do some drawing. Since we had to do some sketching before we could dive in to the gel pens, and we needed some sharp pencils, we broke out Madison's new camera pencil sharpener and it is great! I don't think I am ready to give up ...

it's me: December 2013
http://itsme-elizabeth.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 24, 2013. Usually I have a tree full of vintage ornaments for Christmas.But with the addition of our own little Saint Nicholas. We found him late last November so we named him Nick. I decided that I didn't want to hate him for breaking all of my special ornaments. With some fancy paper and special photographs. We created a kitty-proof tree! With Lane's help I added a gorgeous star to the top and now no worries. Disappeared completely for several hours! From our crazy house to yours,.

Thursday, November 28, 2013. So much to be thankful for. These two girlies of course. And there is this guy that I kind of like. We are so fortunate to have each other and to be surrounded by loving family and friends who add so much to our lives (you know who you are! We are lucky to be able to do things that we love. And to live in this wonderful valley full of nature's beauty. I am thankful that within a few hours we will be at my dad's cooking a feast and welcoming people to join us!

Thursday, January 31, 2013. Years ago Brian's dad, Bill.or Pa.or Billy.sometimes William, introduced us to a wonderful Christmas book. Olive The Other Reindeer. It is so clever and cute and simple and a 'why didn't I think of that? Well, months ago I ran into a wonderful blog that has employed that same cuteness, cleverness, and a simplicity that is charming. Olive Us. Please go to their site. Here is one of my favorites. Thursday, January 17, 2013. My youngest turned 16 this December. Lane you are a joy...

Monday, December 23, 2013. For some reason this year felt like my first Adult-in-charge Thanksgiving.the sis was in Chicago, the cooking daughter, Lane, was not feeling well and that left Brian and Madison and I. I was past 50 before I ever even attempted cooking a turkey, so you can see why Thanksgiving might feel like a stretch for me. But. We. Did. It. My girlie, Madison, who is usually the cookie maker stepped up and cooked all kinds of things! And the pies were pretty and delicious! Thought and thin...
