sweet glimpses & projects

it has been incredibly wonderful weather here in dallas lately - which has been SO nice! i do love cold weather, but i have decided that with young kids - it is for the birds - you can only handle so many days inside! the other day i got sweet duncan on a blanket outside and was able to capture some sweet photos. the big brother on the other hand - is not into taking pictures - it is a bit frustrating - when i try to get a picture of him he gives me the cheesiest smile and closes his eyes - not exactly what i am looking for. so you will have to enjoy sweet duncan right now b/c he can pose perfectly for his mom!



i also wanted to show pictures of my newest project! i saw something similar to this at pottery barn and decided that i could make my own moss balls and put them on sticks - and so i did! i am really pleased with how they turned out. i actually was at pottery barn the other day and decided that i liked my creation better than theirs! so yeah for moss balls!
ps. the hearts on the table are a project that jayden made at our art class we have sometimes during our friday play group from church. it was such a fun project - they shaved crayons and then melted them in between wax paper. it was so cute! thought it was a good valentines addition to the table decorations!
