I've been absent for a while too long here. I am trying to keep up otherwise I will feel overwhelmed & go further without logging something to quantify our time.
So a few random thoughts...
- I needed a jacket last night when we were playing outside after dinner. Most fabulous feeling ever.
- I've been working lots on my ink'd stuff...but you already knew that.
- I've refinished an end table in our family...the jury is still out...might need to put a glaze on it, which will require re-sanding it a bit. boo. But for now, it is staying.
- Because I am working on a picture wall that is going to go above it & well, I will just wait.
- The pictures going in the picture wall are new family pictures...and just so you know, they are too die for cute, it I do say so myself. What can I say, I think my kids are cute.
- I am also in the process of refinishing Zack's bedroom furniture...trying to beat the heat...don't think I will make it.
And now the good stuff...
Livy spends lots of time like this:

And Zack...he took a skateboarding lesson last week. hil.ar.ious.

His teacher's name was Zoe. How perfect is that? Zack & Zoe? Love it. And he slide on his bum into the big bowl ramp holding her hand to practice his skillz. hehe. And while his coordination is known far & wide, his confidence doesn't match it. We've struggled through it in swim lessons & another little sports class. And while a part of me wants him to just get over it & get in there & show his stuff, another part of me, the bigger part, sits back & lets him work through it. Because don't we all under estimate ourselves? Don't we all sit on the sidelines nervous to get out there & go for it? I know I do. And I can't tell him convincingly enough that he can do it so that he actually internalizes it. He has to learn that himself...just like the rest of us.

I need to come see all of your projects, and get inspired to get a few done myself!
