thanksgiving!!

We had a very nice thanksgiving dinner. Everyone was able to be there and we actually got holiday pictures taken before dinner. Had to take several because either kyle was making faces, dylan was moving or someone's eyes were shut. After all of that we had one good one! I am so very thankful for my family and my friends and everything that I have in my life. My life is very full.

stampfest "06

Stampfest is an art carving retreat held at La Casa de Maria in Montecito, CA. I absolutely love going there. There is no place on earth that is more peaceful. STampfest is put on by Kat Okamoto of A Stamp in the Hand. Everyone that is there is so very talented and giving.

Cutouts designed by Don Clarke. He took pictures of each of us, cut out the heads and adhered them to cutouts from magazines. They were a hoot!
